George Galloway - despicable traitor or wronged martyr?

Sorry, but irate archivist rant follows....

It made my professional blood boil to hear the reporter going on about how they were all just walking into the building and taking files left right and centre. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/2965789.stm

I know you can't expect a perfect record keeping structure, but the reporters aren't helping in the bid to restore order and get iraq back on it's own two feet if they're stealing the working files of the previous regime. he says "After all, right now, for the first time, Iraq has no government and Iraqi government ministries are effectively open to anybody who wants to walk in and look for documents.

Hundreds of journalists have been doing exactly that for the last week. "

And they're all going to put the records back where they got them from, in the right order? I think not.

classic for this...oh, this isn't a classic/dud thread. I didn't know malkovich starred in johnny english, he now=dud.

Anyway, the whole thing looks like a 21st-century Zinoviez letters-type MI5 stitch-up.

As any true Scot will know, Galloway WAS addressing the Iraqi people - he quite clearly says, "I salute YOUSE" which as any fule know is the traditional Scottish second person plural (cf. "Taggart" - "Youse ur gaunnae tell me who the murrrderrrurrr is" etc.). So that's that sorted out.

(the fact i never see this element of his past mentioned anywhere may indicate fear of legal action faulty memory on my part though)

people in glass dictatorships...

Just gone past my window on an open-topped bus, shouting quite a lot.

truly, noel gallagher has split the nation.

I think Galloway gets free hire of the open-topped bus every Wednesday afternoon.

I agree with a fair amount of his politics, but he's an awful human being.

He's out there again, third week in a row, trolling some City boys in the office across the road. "No more bonuses boys! They're all drying up!" I can clearly see them making wanker signs at him.

Last week he had Summer of 69 playing very loudly, and was playing air guitar.

They went by my flat about an hour ago.

Hope you've got an alibi:

George Galloway was struck on the head by an object hurled from an office block while out campaigning today (Tuesday) for the London Assembly elections.

The Bethnal Green & Bow MP was dazed and thrown back and to the side.

...just like JFK.

Oh shit that's where my office is!

MATT DID IT

DAMN HE TOOK THAT ELEPHANT DOWN HARDCOOOORE

There was a second stress ball on the grassy knoll.

And then there's the Magic Stress Ball Theory

I salute his strength, his courage, his indefatigability.

In future, will you remember where you were and what you were doing you heard Galloway was shot pratted by a stress ball?

Haha we're on the third floor as well, oh dear.

Matt will - he threw it. Or is he just a patsy?

xp

So how long have you worked in a Book Repository, Matt?

SEX And The City, out this week, will be a welcome ray of summer sunshine for all of us who have never - Desperate Housewives notwithstanding - found anything to fill the gap the end of the series has left.

It's the only box set I've ever bought which I have actually watched.

The clothes, the clever repartee, the down and dirty sexiness of the girls and their endless stream of men now seems like a distant era - like Harold Wilson's Sixties Britain.

But, at last, after contractual conflict which seemed set to scupper their reunion, they're back, the whole palpitating, heaving, fornicating four of them.

Journalists sometimes ask which of them would do it for me.

The honest answer is all four of them, but it's too dangerous to admit that.

There's the sweet one - great marriage material.

The lawyerly red-head - sexy and motherly. Or the voracious man-eating vamp, ankles behind her ears.

But if I had to choose just one, it would have to be the eponymous Carrie Bradshaw.

She's not the prettiest, the sexiest or the cleverest. But she would be, quite simply, the most fun.

That fucking guy.

Hasn't he got a Big Mouth to host?

Thought this was gonna be about his lawsuit against The Bill

like Harold Wilson's Sixties Britain

Ugly phrase

Acccckkkkkk fuck Britain srsly

George Galloway or Phil Space?

In tomorrow's paper, Norman Tebbit on the new Indiana Jones film.

Or the voracious man-eating vamp, ankles behind her ears.

lol though!

oh wait he wasn't talking about sarah jessica parker i thought it was a footface lol!!

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad commands the loyalty of the poor, the working class and the rural voters whose development he has championed.

He lives like them, looks like them - he's never worn a suit since becoming president - and there's more of them than the English speaking more liberal elites now on the streets demonstrating.

It will soon fizzle out.

This election almost mirrors the class composition of the recent polls in Venezuela. President Hugo Chavez has exactly the same friends in his country. And the same enemies.

dick.

lolz upthread

Hey, Ahmadinejad may be a brutal anti-semitic dictator, but he's our brutal anti-semitic dictator.

Could swear I've seen him wearing a suit tho.

LJ can you post that on the Iran thread? Mega irresponsible conjecture on GG's part; Ahmadi even wears TIES. Western, imperialist, phallic TIES.

Could swear I've seen him wearing a suit tho.

google "armani dinner jacket" and u will see that it is a meme for his name.

there are always lolz upthread

but especially here

I just knew when I saw his name on the 'new answers' list that this what it would be. Prick.

Actually, that quote could be notable because Galloway appears to be explicitly siding against liberalism - that ought to be some sort of rubicon for him and his fellow-travellers

I present two weekly shows for Iranian-owned Press TV.

specifically, iranian state-owned press tv.

Press TV are totally shilling; there was a guy on C4 last night trying to assert talking points about the demos being devised by North Tehran chattering classes.

Today program as well this morning, he managed to get at least one mention of "press tv" into every sentence.

an old communist like george should probably ease off with that shit, cf onion headline "russian regime overthrown by goatee'd coffee-house types".

I wonder where Yvonne Ridley, the yorkshire taliban stands on all of this.

she works for press tv too, so i think you can guess.

That fucking guy is my MP. My Nan religiously follows his radio show on Talksport: I don't know whether that is C or D?

Better than being into the BNP I suppose.

For my sins, I looked her up, no views on iran, more concerned with the "turban revolution" in Pakistan.

More entertaining than the BNP, but otherwise pretty much the same

The BNP hate more than one race tho tbf.

also: devote years to making 'liberal' a dirty word, and see where that gets us
