Would the High Court of Beroos hear her appeal?

Whilst most in Labour (even on the left) see Webbe as an embarrassment - and have often done so for a while - the crankiest of the crank online brigade are still four square behind her (its all because of racism and her being pro-Corbyn, you see) So any grifting for funds will have at least a few willing helpers.

I agree with Tim here, she won't give up until she runs out of money and I suspect she'll try to grift cash from Corbynistas. Yes, she'll try - but how many left wing legal defence crowd funders have worked apart from for the absolute boy? Andy Wightman? Seemed pretty successful both in fundraising and in court... |

I count the FBPE lawfare scams as being from the centre. Of course, many pro-EU court challenges were very successful in raising money. |

Galloway is going to pop up here if there is a by election. Isn't he?

Is Leicester a very imperalist place? Regular talk of invading Derby perhaps?  |

Leicester had its moments. But Rutland is independent again.

Galloway really is an effective speaker, isn’t he? I was quite shocked to hear the effectiveness of his vicious denunciation of Islamist Terrorist Extremism, his calls for the border to be strengthened against illegal immigrants and his concern that Prince Charles would make a far poorer head of state than Prince William would. We all know that he remains a naked apologist for Russia, but his ideological flexibility gives him plenty to crow about, and he exudes the impression that he’s the only one willing to tell the truth. I’m reminded when watching him of the old saying that sincerity is the most important quality a politician can have ……… |

Demagogues tend to be effective speakers, for fairly obvious reasons.

Galloway usually only stands in seats with large Muslim populations. This one is much more Hindu than Muslim - unless it's changed very quickly.

It was a surprise that Galloway chose to stand in West Bromwich East at the last GE, the asian community there being largely sikh and hindu. WBW would have been a better fit, but even then the muslim community is fairly small. He doesn't get it right all the time, and he bombed in WBE.

When has Galloway got it right anywhere in the last 8 years?
