Oh - and though Cronus and I might not agree on much, on this he's right.

I look forward to it.
I will see your hearsay and trump it with a whole host of videos of Galloway discussing or railing about homophobia on a well-known video sharing site.

If you'd paid a modicum of attention, you'd be well aware that I have never given much support to the current Labour party. Christ - if you'd kept your eyes open, you'd actually KNOW that I've been slagging off the PLP for years! Have you not being paying attention?
If you paid a modicum of attention you'd know perfectly well my stance on Afghanistan/Iraq from before the invasions.
I have also lead a winning strike where the Trots actually acted as scabs - so kindly don't tell me what I know or do not.
I may be wrong, but I very much doubt that you have anything like comparable experience.
But hey - what would you know about such real actions that could screw your career chances? And, indeed, as far as I can gauge with limited proof, have screwed at least one specific job?
BTW : when are you going to change that avatar, given your previous comments about symbols? Not a hypocrite, are you?
All of which (and I do speak as a TU steward whose union activity has held back career advancement on many an occasion) makes me wonder how such a working class hero could end up so bitterly and twistedly sectarian.
p.s. Your tirade against Giant's avatar amuses me. Disney was a particularly nasty and bigoted piece of capitalist crud...as far as I can remember Mickey Mouse wasn't. TBH it would be much easier to describe your avatar as sexist than it is his.

So you do not have any proof that he did not shed women's and LGBT rights for the political convenience, in the Tower Hamlets election, then?

No more than you have proof otherwise, but I do have proof of a consistent public message from Galloway on these issues.

Y'see that shows that you have not been paying attention. Because DG was railing about the importance of symbols last autumn when it came to poppies - and why he, holier than holy - could never wear one - yet he posts here under a picture created by an anti-Semitic, anti-union, anti-worker, right-wing individual.
