George Galloway, a respected member of British Parliament, who left Blair and Labour to start the Respect Party, and win his seat back with this new mantle, is implicated in the Republican's apparently trumped-up "UN Oil For Food Scandal."
Says Galloway:
'Assuming we get visas and flights sorted, we are going there to confront the Joe McCarthy committee,' he added, referring to the 1950s senator who led anti-communist hearings.
...
Galloway, who set up his own left-wing Respect Party after being expelled from the Labour Party of Prime Minister Tony Blair after criticising the government's involvement in the Iraq war, branded the accusation a 'big lie'.
