George Galloway is busy representing his Middle East constituents, so once again missed his appointment with the Parliament he was elected to. Nothing new there then, but wait… over at Harry’s Place (HP) is a great comment that reveals more than any election poll ever could. Some British subjects even think he’s a BNP member:

The HP obsession with George Galloway is becoming old hat. I attended a Social Services training course today, which included among other things a group discussion about reality TV (don’t ask…). When I alluded to GG’s “pussy cat” performance, the reaction from one of the trainer’s was “Who’s he?”

There were several responses of “don’t know”, until somebody remembered he was an MP and added that he was in the BNP. (Common this - UAF members canvassing in the local estates were mortified that people tended to confuse the BNP and the SWP). Someone else corrected that he had his own party called Respect, adding that “He was mates with Saddam Hussein”.

I can’t see him posing much of a threat to anything if this is the extent of his reputation.

BNP, SWP,… what’s the difference again?
