  • his boyfriend died on the gallows beacause he committed crimes of unspakable nature aginst young male children not beacuse he was gay . this notion that is being put forward byt he war propagada movement that you get killed in iran for being gay is bull , you get killed in iran if you commit crimes against children

  • Were is your evidence that these "of unspakable nature aginst young male children"? George Galloway couldn't produce it, so it would be very surprising if you could.

  • Peter Tatchell is a good man. It's someone like him who should be leading the anti-imperialist movement, the opportunist Galloway.

  • Galloways panders to homophobe bigots because he can't offend his Muslim friends. hypocrite!
