On the news this morning "the UK has sent a warship the area in response Russian activity re Ukraine ". I think the west was a bit naive in trying attract Ukraine into the European fold in the first place. Putin would love to recreate the old Soviet Union and Ukraine was always a buffer against the west. I think gorgeous George is getting a bit carried away though. Maybe he is angling for a bit of publicity and next years "I'm a celebrity"

To give due credit Galloway is an excellent orator and writer, a powerful speaker and an engaging personality.
However while always knowledgeable he is often not intelligent in his choice of words and actions.
While pragmatic his compassion is often lacking or misdirected.
If anything he is perhaps a UK version of Rush Limbaugh (or mirror there of politically) a political commentator you may hate for his opinions, but enjoy for his sheer entertainment value and provocative rhetoric.

I am reluctant to trust anything from a person insane enough to convert to Islam.

As disturbing as converting to Catholicism even or believing in 45! Lol.

Simply for clarity Galloway has never claimed to be a Muslim and denies all religious affiliation simply describing himself as believing in a deity and the idea of postmortem divine judgement.
To me his religious rhetoric, when he indulges in it, is most reminiscent of Knoxian Presbyterianism.

@LenHazell53 deeper than I wish to explore.
