Much as I despise George Galloway, it is always amusing to see such a maverick publicly humiliate the major parties. The loss of Bradford West – a Labour heartland – to Galloway’s Respect Party is a moment to enjoy for the discomfiture it causes Red Ed.
Sure, likely as not, Galloway will be booted out at the next general election, but one can savour the moment for now…
Almost….ALMOST as good as seeing the look on Portillos face, when he eventually lost HIS seat….. his PARLIAMENTARY seat, I mean. Rumour has it, that “Pretty polly” lost the other one LONG before.
The only thing that would have surpassed the Portillo moment would have been a Balls moment at the last election.
It’s amusing for the first few minutes, until you contemplate what it might really mean.
Agreed. It tells you a great deal about Bradford, and not just that the electorate would struggle to scrape together a braincell between them.
Not so.
The Beeb interviewed one of GG’s workers, and ex-Labour Bradford muslim.
Who actually said that deliberately picking “ethnic minority” candidates BY ALL OF THE MAIN PARTIES in supposedly-suitable areas was insulting and counterproductive.
He effectively sadi that “We want a godd constituency MP”
Which is very interesting.

Interesting.
Links with my theory on “P.C” entirely.
How can a legal system be MORE racist, than to say “Nigger needs help becaus he can’t help himself, and he needs to be protected from nasty words like “nigger” because he can’t take it with a stiff upper lip, like us BIG white massas can!”?
That, surely is the EPITOME of “racist” thought?
