What do you understand by the phrase "A man cannot become a woman just by declaring as such"? Stop accusing people of being bad faith actors just because they demonstrate the skills of basic literacy. Unless the campaign has come out and said "we are against transgender rights" than what has been said is not that. A positive statement has been turned into a negative while maintaining quote marks. This is an inaccurate rendering. If I were to reproduce a critique of Marie Stopes and accuse them of being mass slaughterers of infants on the scale King Herod could only dream of, that would be an interpretation of their activites. They would call it all manner of things to the contrary and not appreciate the insult. I posted one quote. In response to you, I posted the original letter. There's no need to keep this going. |

His address is C/O Rochdale Suzuki, and he was sworn into Parliament holding a book whose spine describes it as The Holy Bible
I find these facts of interest.

Do we know the identity of the proprietor of Rochdale Suzuki? And the financial arrangements for the hire of the premises? The Return of Election Expenses could be an interesting read. |

Galloway has just been introduced by Peter Bottomley and Alba’s Neale Hanvey. So, unionist Galloway was introduced by someone who left the SNP because they are too soft on independence ... ? |

Every SNP member has signed the call for Hoyle to go except Ian Blackford, who is a personal friend. Jonathon Aitkin was Diane Abbott's son's Godfather.
I find these facts comforting

Incidentally, why did he single out Angela Rayner? Ostensibly GG would want WPB candidates to oust dozens of Labour MPs. Is there a particular reason for mentioning her? She is the deputy leader of the Labour Party and a hot babe, her defenestration would be newsworthy and assertions that it may happen are therefore newsworthy albeit less so. There is an element of what is wrongly referred to as mysoginy in his targetting of her I know it can get cold and lonely in the wild moors of Bonnie Scotland, but even so ... |

I'm loving the juxtaposition of the title and thumbnail on this article. If anyone would stand in the House and say that, it would be GG Incidentally, why did he single out Angela Rayner? Ostensibly GG would want WPB candidates to oust dozens of Labour MPs. Is there a particular reason for mentioning her? It is indeed an interesting question - not least because the Muslim electorate share in Ashton-under-Lyne is only about a third of what it is in Rochdale. Of course it is typical of our media that they uncritically stenographed this Galloway boast, without bringing up the above fact or indeed critiquing it in any other way. |

He’s a clever beggar to be sure. Galloway? Yeah, it's quite stark evil electoral genius sending a letter to white voters posing as Rochdale's answer to Donald Trump, and one to the Muslim areas posing as Hamas's man in Rochdale. We have imported many of the world's issues through mass migration and now we have American style racially segregated politics in this country. As well as a situation where a small religious minority has the power to dictate politics in this country in a way not seen since the civil wars and the Protectorate. All in all, a profoundly destabilising development. |

casual sexism is part of the argument. Part of it, for sure. Also a section of the hard left almost violently dislikes Rayner, seeing her as a wolf in sheep's clothing and/or traitor. |

There isn't a ton of Christian Islamism. |

There's more common ground between Christians and Muslims than political parties and the media would like there to be. The weekend is said to have been invented to allow Christian and Jews to work together. I look forward to its logical extension to Fridays to incorporate Islam into it. Anyone serious about a social conservative movement in this country will face a stumbling block that potential Catholic and Muslim voters tend to also want economically liberal policy, which I think would qualify as a form of Christian Islamism. Most non-trinitarians Christians are proto-Muslim, they just don't realise it. Mohammed was an Arian in the view of Martin Luther. |

It may be that Reform's analysis and examination of Galloway's expenses return be interesting. It may not.

If they do turn out to be interesting, and he loses his seat in the courts (a very unlikely outcome given the time scale) he will blame it on Jews.

casual sexism is part of the argument. Massively, plus transphobia (Rayner is an ally, Galloway is heavily on that culture-war bandwagon), and generally hating people from challenging background at least on a par with him who have achieved greater success. |
