There's quite a likelihood that the candidates are the first people given the written results of the election they stood in.

but yeah how would he know?

Right winger politicians are like betfair punters. They never ever lose, they just get cheated out of winning.

He made it up. The postal votes were 13,460.

Nigel Farage calls for investigation into Rochdale by-election postal voting​

Nigel Farage has said there needs to be a review into the way postal votes were collected in the Rochdale by-election after it emerged that almost half of all votes cast came through that method.

Rochdale Borough Council have confirmed that 13,460 postal votes were cast in the Rochdale by-election, 43.2 percent of the votes cast and more than 12,335 received by winner George Galloway.

George Galloway's first speech in the House of Commons.

Told the truth there even when he served notice on Senator normski that he himself should disclose all his donors [something that came to haunt that senator].

*a’a

That’s true leif no charges - there was no police investigation as far as I know
Would have been interesting

I can understand why so many on here support Mr Galloway for the content of his orations and are thus able to ignore the content of his actions.

I'm a bit puzzled why so many of the same people vilified Ian Blackford for speaking up about Johnson, calling him a liar and getting ejected from parliament.

A man telling the truth is a man telling the truth.

You lot seem to only like "some" truths

P.S. imho this was the moment starmer showed how inappropriate person he is to be a leader, or a UK PM.
He could have seized the day simply by ordering all of his MP's to follow Blackfords lead, repeating the truth and be expelled from Parliament. The global sized fall out of the entire opposition being ejected from parliament because the PM lied would have ended his premiership in 48 hours.

blackford had the last laugh, he got to repeat his words in parliament without any intervention from the speaker circa 18 months later.

I think if your name is George you should be in parliament with at least a 51% Chance of doing better than dishonorable Rishi.

The only time I have ever admired the said George Galloway was when he stuck it to the U.S. senators making them look utter fools as he did so.  He was class that day.
