It’s basically an anti-Labour rant from the Daily Mail with added Islamophobia. And yes George Galloway’s party is full of fruitcakes but is a social media post.
Why are socialists geting into bed with islamists? They couldn’t be further apart politically.
The Workers Party has fielded a candidate in our ward that doesn’t speak English. He, unsurprisingly, failed to turn up to our local hustings.
I take a very dim view of a party that would field a candidate that cannot serve their area adequately.
As a Brummie, I am utterly sick of our local politics being taken over by international causes and a war a thousand miles away. Council elections should be about local services, not Gaza. And then, if candidates get into the council on a Gaza vote, what are they going to do for Gaza from Birminghan council. Moreover, they should be working on behalf of the people of Birmingham, not bloody Gaza.
