From a midday phone chat with my da: "The man's an unpleasant testicle, but he was right about Iraq and better than anyone else running."

Imagine, if you will, a whole by election of candidates who make George Galloway look like the good option. :lmao:

It was a whole election of bigoted conspiracy theorists and sex perverts, and people backed the one who was right once and wears a hat.

It's nothing for anyone to be proud of, but the people who should be most ashamed are those who couldn't find anyone better than George to stand.

Well, he was one of those people who swore up and down that Russia would never invade the Ukraine a week before it happened. Then went silent for a while after Russia did invade Ukraine.

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2022/02/25/time-putins-real-useful-idiots-woke/

(Apologies the link is to the Torygraph. It also includes him talking about Ukraine being full of Nazi's which is why Russia had to invade.)

He is also using the Russian talking point that Nato is pushing for the war using Ukraine as its proxy.

https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202203/1255144.shtml

He also uses the (again Russian points) that "the war would end tomorrow if Ukraine agreed to Russia's minimal demands." Competely overlooking the fact that Russia started the War, and were quite clearly targeting Ukranian civilians.

Honestly, both are plausible - he's deeply vain, and he did indeed get a pretty serious beating.

On the subject of shameless grifting cunts, Russell Brand is entering his performative Christianity Era
https://twitter.com/rustyrockets/status/1748988929020158003

On the topic of Brand / Galloway a few months back when Brand was mid cancellation Galloway put out a video coming to his defence, his rhetoric basically being "well we all know that Russell Brand was a naughty boy in his past, thats old news. So why are the elites bringing it up now?"

It struck me as such a sketchy line of defence, he wasn't in the firing line for 'being a naughty boy', it was for forcibly penetrating a woman(or plural) who was telling him "no", which is rape. It had a whiff of "well whomst among us doesent have a few sex crimes in the closet?"

Ah OK, that's closer to the former although I get frustrated when people who are very anti-war when it comes to the US and NATO fall into believing whatever Putin says as a justification for the war. Corbyn has reasonably avoided doing that but it looks like Galloway is less reasonable on that front.

It's all good being anti-war but that should extend to considering Putin foolish for starting the invasion over Euromaidan in the first place, because NATO was obviously going to keep escalating further as well.

He is partly correct in that it is a bit poo poo how the press keeps quiet about these things until its convenient.

However 'he was being blackmailed over the rapes he did' still does not detract from the rapes he did.

Putin was....foolish for starting a war that has killed thousands and displaced many more?

I think NSF is deliberately copying Galloway's language on the subject to show the inconsistency, not saying that's the only adequate description of the Ukrainian genocide.

George "my opponent says she was forced by her family into an abusive and rape-filled marriage at the age of 15, but in fact she was 16, the liar" Galloway being sketchy on sex crimes shouldn't come as a massive surprise, in all fairness.

More than just the press, when Brand was famous and had connections the police were intimidating his victims. It was a Savile-type situation where it's very hard for anyone affected to be public about anything.

0.000% of Communism has been built. Evil child-murdering billionaires still rule the world with a shit-eating grin. All he has managed to do is make himself *sad*. It has, however, made him into a very, very smart boy with something like a university degree in Truth. Instead of building Communism, he now builds a precise model of this grotesque, duplicitous world.
