George Galloway v Frank Warren Row

George has been tweeting on behalf of Ricky Burns. Burns is aledging that Warren owes him £160,000 from a previous fight when the two were together.

George has a pop at Frank on Twitter and Frank responds with the type of letter he has now become well known for.

Have a read of the letter on Warren's website.

Bizarre stuff.

Surely Burns didnt write that?! Frank doesn't half cover his back!

Burns claiming a forged signature on Twitter and is seeking legal advice.

'Frank warren and George Galloway in cat fight... Meow'

Not many people frank could gave a spat with, and have the public on his side but he may just have found one.

I'm surprised the papers haven't picked this up. They could make Galloway look like a complete idiot.

I think George can do that on his own without their help

Galloway won Bethnal Green and then Bradford as basically an independent..

One of the most impressive and talented politicians of his age..

Galloway is an Uncle Jock and just a poor mans Alex Salmond

Not sure his meowing on big brother would win him britain's got talent.  Guess it depends if your judgement of  impressive in a politician is based on a blatantly cynical ability to tap into a vein of discontent to get elected, or whether you do something meaningful as a public servant once you've been elected.

One man's  impressive and talented is another's deranged and egomaniacal.  Suspect we're unlikely to agree on saddam's best mate truss!

Anyone able to copy and paste the full letter. Can only get up part on my iPhone...

Also notice it has attachments, can we do them too?

You are very wrong..Whatever you think about his character and politics...

You have to be in awe of someone who is charismatic and talented enough to go into a constituency with no base that has voted Labour since the test of time and upset all the odds...

The guy is a special politician and you patronise the people of Bethnal and Bradford by saying they can't think for themselves...

You have no idea why they voted for Galloway...You just accept the narrative....

I couldn't do what Galloway has done twice and neither could you..

More respect (pardon the pun) is in order..

He obviously has talent Truss, is the same way a con man is also very talented.

Doesn't change the fact that he's a bit of a prat.

We know why they voted for George. I don't think this is the place for such a discussion but we cannot pretend to be completely oblivious to the bleeding obvious.

Shush.........

People can make up their own mind........

Stop patronising people you don't know...........

Practice what you preach, fat lad.

Strongy and milky are on here..

That makes you irrelevant....Look for trouble elsewhere..

Lumbering Jack just out of interest do you actually have any purpose?

Sure I read that somewhere.

Not sure where you're going with this? Define purpose.

Apparently they both have just entered the WBO's top 10..

You're right on one thing truss I couldn't do what Galloway has. Nor would I ever want to.

I 'll patronise the electorate all I like thanks truss. Just because politicians will never suggest the electorate are gullible fools, it doesn't mean they don't think it and treat them like it.

I'll judge my politicians on what they do, not how they self publicise. But thanks for the advice bud!

Here's what some of his voter's think now.

http://www.theguardian.com/uk/the-northerner/2012/sep/13/georgegalloway-bradford-west-byelection-2012-muslim-women-salma-yaqoob-r***

Judge them on what they do.......Sure..

Like going into a constituency with no votes and getting 20,000 a time....

Not a single politician in Westminster would have the balls to do that..I wager !!

Supine , spineless bunch of yes men........

Guardian asked all 20,000. ??.............Read the Guardian you'd think Cameron was the anti-christ....

Guardian wants Labour to win in 2015...........Bradford is a target seat...

Maybe it's not just the people of Bradford that are gullible hey Mate..

Meow truss. You'll be telling me Santa doesn't exist next.

Like I said your basis for success is electioneering.

He has cojones truss.  So do many evangelists and megalomaniacs.

Thanks for the tip about media agenda's , I must have skipped that lecture... Probably explains why I missed the distinction on my politics degree dissertation on the subject.

Ya condescending big Yankee  beefster ya!

You don't know what my basis for success is..........

But getting elected without a machine is very hard...

You were condescending towards Galloway.........You don't like him that's fine....

I however like both of you   ....and both of you can come to the Oyster anytime..........I have to go so fairplay...........

We'll agree to disagree...........  

Fair enough fella... I did pop at him first.

But  one day the people of bradford will see  through the epic illusion and realise they've taken a quiet beating 

Like anybody with a Lib Dem MP

He's a great orator but that's as far as I'd go.

Winning Bethnal Green and Bradford was always a likely scenario for Galloway. He was hardly an obscure independent candidate and those two constituencies had large Muslim populations who would have always supported Galloway due to his pandering of them.

It wasn't likely he was a huge underdog in BB....Because he didn't have a machine...

He was 20-1 to win Bradford..........about fifth favorite.....Political betting didn't even mention him...

Labour had a Muslim candidate in Bradford..

Stop patronising Muslim/Asian voters......A lot of them I'm sure have their own minds..

Not patronising them Truss   

But he wouldn't have won it had it not been for their votes. Simple as that.

Fair enough Mate....

Love sacks.

He won elections by going into Muslim heartlands and shamelessly pandering to their pathetic rhetoric.

He also has one of the worst, if not THE worst, attendance records at Parliament.

He's probably the least impressive politician I can think of.

Galloway is about the only person/public figure I can think of almost as repulsive as Bob Crow and who I'd equally like to bury a brick in his face.

So all Muslims have no brains and can't think for themselves......Okay !

He's very unimpressive you're right...Winning twice as an independent..

Anyway I don't want to discuss a mature subject with you.

Ref that letter, I genuinely can't believe Ricky Burns would write/say those things.

He's not a patch on Boris. That man should be leading our country.

You don't learn do you?

How many times has he won where there hasn't been a Muslim majority electorate??

Can you answer that? It's pretty easy, even for you.

But, let's avoid fact because you always struggle with that, and let's stick to opinion:

What's your opinion on a politician that never turns up to work and never does the job he was supposedly elected to do??

Pull the thread Rowley is my advice.........

Of course it is, because you can't debate without making a fool of yourself.

Mods can do what they want, don't need you to tell them their job.

TRUSSMAN66 wrote:Pull the thread Rowley is my advice.........

You took it off thread....

On topic I don't think Burns would have said that. Saying that I'm not exactly his best mate so just judging by the public facing guy we see, who in comparison to some seems an ok guy.

You don't even know who Galloway is........You little squirt.

Someone just ban truss please.

I asked you the other day how old you were ....

I want to know which is higher your IQ or your age...

32 years of age. So now you know how I like my steak, how old I am...

... And that your age is indeed higher than your IQ

So is mine, but I'm practically fossilised

You really aren't very knowledgeable, are you? George Galloways was MP for Glasgow Hillhead from 1987 to 2005, which does not have many Muslim voters in it. Just because you're as thick as two planks, it doesn't excuse you not doing a quick google search on George's electoral history.

I've met George Galloway in London once and found him to be a a thoroughly decent and pleasent chap.
