David Irving comments:

Blair doesn't like Whistleblowers

GALLOWAY is lucky to be alive, of course; Dr Kelly, who also objected to Blair's War, is dead. In Galloway's case, it smacks of the worst years of the Stalinist purges: a Party member who fails to observe party discipline is first smeared, then keel-hauled.

It figures that when the Labour Party finds that the people have elected a Member of Parliament who is actually worth something and has some principles, he has to be ousted from the party.

His Opposition To War In Iraq Spurred Labor Party's Action

Britons boot rogue legislator

By E. J. Dionne Jr.

London--A FLAMBOYANT British legislator who had urged British soldiers not to fight in Iraq was expelled from the governing Labor Party early today, the party said.

George Galloway, who represents a constituency in Glasgow, Scotland, had been suspended by the party in May.

He will remain a member of Parliament.

In a March 28 [2003] interview with Abu Dhabi television, Galloway urged Arab nations to "stand by the Iraqi people" and said British soldiers should refuse to fight.

Galloway, a member of Parliament since 1987, has long been a thorn in the side of Prime Minister Tony Blair's (right) government. He campaigned to end sanctions imposed on Iraq after its 1990 invasion of Kuwait, founding a charity to help Iraqi child victims of sanctions.

"Mr. Blair's response to the mistake of the war is to attack those who stood against the war and root them out of British politics," Galloway told reporters.

He and other opponents of the war are "not going to go away, Mr. Blair, inside or outside the Labor Party," Galloway added.

In June, Galloway filed a libel suit against the publishers of The Daily Telegraph, which claimed he took money from Saddam Hussein's regime. He strongly denied doing so.
