British congressman George Galloway, a highly controversial deputy because of his support for former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein and his frontal opposition to war in Iraq, is now seeking support from Venezuela to launch an Internet-based TV station.
Galloway (52), was expelled from the Labor Party in 2003 and then founded his own party, called Respect. Now he intends to use the TV station to broadcast political satires and speeches of Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez. He plans to visit Venezuela next month to ask Chávez' Government for economic and technical aid for this new enterprise, Galloway himself told British newspaper The Guardian. |
