Galloway Suspended by Labour Party
2003-05-06
The decision follows claims he received money from former Iraqi regime.
This guy rates right up there with the Cambridge spies.

My question: Why did it take this long?

George Galloway has been suspended by the Labour Party. The MP is accused of bringing the party into disrepute after complaints about an interview he gave to an Arabic TV station - in which he attacked Tony Blair for his stance on Iraq. The MP is also at the centre of claims he was in the pay of Saddam Hussein.

Mr Galloway immediately hit back at the suspension, describing it as "completely unjust" and "prejudicial" to his libel action against the Daily Telegraph.

Party General secretary David Triesman said the suspension, effective immediately, would remain in place "pending internal party investigations".
