George Galloway Loses Bradford West Seat For Respect Party Then Makes Bizarre Speech

[King_David]

After losing his seat in Bradford West, George Galloway is being utterly torn apart on social media.

The Respect candidate, who stormed to victory in a by-election in 2012, received just 21% (8,557) in yesterday's vote.

Labour’s Naseem Shah won with 50% (19,997) of the vote, taking the constituency back to red.

Galloway, known for his grandiose boasts and controversial television appearances, made what can only be described as an utterly bizarre speech following his defeat.

He blamed Zionists, racists and even hyenas for Respect’s loss before declaring: “I’m going off now to plan the next campaign”.

2. A white man loses to a Muslim woman of Pakistani descent and blames Zionists and racists

He is literally a parody of himself.

[King_David]

3. Yes it is unbelievable nt

[oberliner]

7. I am trying to get a handle on why he thinks racists would be celebrating

I get that he likes to throw Zionists into every conversation but why racists?

[geek tragedy]

8. he views himself as the (white authoritarian) guardian of the

oppressed victims of the west. Including noble figures such as Kim Jong Un and Bashar al assad.

And, of course, he's a big fan of state-sanctioned homophobia and persecution of the GLBT community in Iran,

4. He doesn't blame zionists, racists, and hyenas for his loss.

He says the first two would be celebrating it and compares them to hyenas. Which I think is rather unfair to hyenas, but I dunno, British people and their lions, I guess.

[oberliner]

5. Why would racists celebrate?

Any idea what he meant by that?

[geek tragedy]

6. He's always been a loathsome creature. nt

[King_David]

13. Indeed. nt

9. He is the British equivalent ....

...to Pamela Geller and Caroline Glick.....just opposite sides to the same hatred .

10. I see your sig line about "not replying "to King David no matter what

Can I ask you:

Is that because I am Gay ? Are you in a socially / culturally backward country such as most in the Middle East where Gay people have no rights and people never get to converse with us?

Because I can help you see we just regular normal people despite the background you may come from.

I'm just asking this because you seem to have singled me out among all the people posting in this group , even to the extent that you make your feelings about me public by adding it to your sig line, and the only difference between me and other pro Israel Jewish posters is that I am openly Gay.

Is that the reason for this "special treatment " I receive from you with a public derision in your sig line?

What country are you from?
I can help you with overcoming this prejudice if you wish.

11. Unbelievable that someone would actually use that as their signature line.

Talk about obsessed with you.

[King_David]

12. Yes I know... It's stalkingly weird...

Not only immature and downright creepy, obsessed is right.

I wonder why myself tho , besides being an American Jew like most of the other pro Israel posters in this group , I am also openly Gay and I can't help wondering that that is the reason .

[leftynyc]

14. I never noticed the signature line before

Why he couldn't just put you on ignore is a mystery. It's like using a bullhorn to announce you've gotten under his skin.

[King_David]

17. It's creepy. nt

[King_David]

18. No need to reply to me

Just to remind you your sig line is creepy.

Which country do you actually live in and why chose that name as yours if you don't actually even live there.

15. Galloway losing his seat

was one of the few pieces of good news that night. Remember Cynthia McKinney? She also blamed the Jews for her loss. Both she and Galloway are pathetic assholes whose constituents finally got tired of their shit and went on to better representation.

[grossproffit]

16. OMG! I completely forgot about that POS McKinney. I liked her at one time but

then I woke up. She and Galloway are 2 pigs in a pen. No offense to pigs everywhere.
