Hey, I must be the only one at this point who's voted for the second option. I don't know massive amounts about him, but I think most people who disparage him just don't like the fact that he associates with Muslims, period. I think he p***es our government off by making money from foreign dealings, when the government think they're the only ones who should be allowed to do so! Personally, I admire the way he is bridging the gap between white & asian communities in his area.

A silly man with a moustache he is, just like John Bolton.
Galloway's proclamations about oil exploitation are nothing I didn't know or strongly suspect already, and the man's own dealings are a bit fishy.  Galloway doesn't matter in the long run.

Ha!  I went for the same option as Max... the one option you missed was "The biggest ego ever to be elected to parliament"

By and large he's right in what he says... but he is such an annoying arsehole, it makes me want to disagree with him on principal.

Having skimmed just the posted link and read others' comments, I just can't cast an informed vote.  I will say that standing against the "lap dog" who is the British Prime Minister (Churchill, Gladstone, & Disraili must be rolling over in their graves) can't be all bad.  Reaching out to the Muslim community in England can't be all bad either (or is it eIther?  ;)).  Even if the guy is "a silly man with a mustash" if he's bucking the status quo, that could be good.  I await more comments from our friends across the pond.
