[Media-watch] George

[Billy Clark]

Dear All

I wonder if any other mediawatchers were sent this ridiculous piece of 
chutzpah from George Galloway.  Having recently noticed something is 
amiss with the Labour party he's getting round to ousting the Labour 
party at some point, will be getting a web site together at some point 
and then starting a new political party for us at em... some point, 
meanwhile we can fork out some money: NOW as opposed to later.  I've 
lost count of how many elected officials I have representing me, not 
counting George Bush, but I know they're there and have the bills and 
the psychosis to prove it.

I'm not looking for the opportunity to make a donation "to the 
movement" - I actually would like something from these cunts.  And 
certainly not a reminder of the failure of old cold war lefties.

A new political movement is born

 

Dear Friend,

Thank for contacting me and expressing interest. As you will no doubt be 
aware I have been expelled from the Labour party for my views on the 
illegal war and occupation of Iraq. I am writing to inform you of the 
launch of a 'unity' coalition which I and others have formed and which 
will put up candidates throughout England and Wales at the forthcoming 
European and Greater London Authority elections in June. Among those who 
spoke at the launch last night were Ken Loach, the filmmaker; 
environmental activist George Monbiot; trade union leaders Bob Crow and 
Linda Smith; Salma Yaqoob of the Birmingham Muslim community and 
anti-war organiser John Rees.

I hope you will consider supporting this new movement. You can join it, 
you can financially contribute to it, or simply vote for it to register 
your protest at the policy of endless war, uncontrolled globalisation, 
environmental vandalism and privatisation of our public services, which 
are the hallmarks of Tony Blair's premiership.

We are in the process of constructing a website at www.blairout.com 
where you can learn further details of what is certain to be massive 
popular movement. I will also be writing to you periodically (and as 
funds permit!) with updates on our progress. I would also welcome any 
comments or suggestions you have which may aid our fight for 
representative democracy in Britain and Europe.

Should you wish to make a donation to the movement - funds are urgently 
required -

Yours sincerely,

George Galloway MP
