Well, it was a big day yesterday for George Galloway of course, as he was sworn to in parliament, he gave a 45 Minute Press Conference outside the Saint Stephens entrance to the palace of westminster, and there was a comment there that i dont think really got the pick up in todays press that it deserved. Lets to george lets listen to what George Galloway say yesterday. Galloway had to say yesterday. So thats why im predicting here for the next election will be about about muslims and will be about about muslims and will be about about muslims and will be about the taking away of Civil Liberties in this country. Its sunak last hope. I pray for the social peace of our country thatis the social peace of our country that is a forlorn hope. There you are. The next there you are. The next election will be about muslims. Election will be about muslims. I pray for the peace in our country quite disturbing words. Ive said to you for months that full on religious, sectarian politics was coming to this country. Ive had guest after guest in the studio telling me, nigel, youre wrong. It absolutely isnt going to happen. But when you see him saying next election will be saying the next election will be all about muslims, you realise we are there. Folks already. We are there. Folks already. Dodi what did George Galloway mean . Well, what he meant was following the speech given on friday outside number 10 by rishi sunak, where sunak said we cant have our society being torn apart. What galloway is saying is the government will start to get tough on people who march in the streets and chant from the river to the sea, which, as you well know, means not just the abolition of the state of israel, but in many cases, what they really mean is getting rid of the jews as well, that they wont allow these kind of protests, they wont allow this of intimidation. They this kind of intimidation. They wont mobs gather wont allow mobs to gather outside wont allow outside parliament, wont allow them to harass mps, local councillors , and that the police councillors, and that the police are going to get tough. And what george is saying is that sunak is in desperate electoral trouble. He will do this. He will challenge keir starmer to say where he really stands on this issue, and that will leave the Muslim Community isolated. The Muslim Community isolated. And what george really means is he wants the muslim to community feel put upon. He wants them to feel put upon. He wants them to feel they havent got the same rights as the rest of us in this country. This is the politics of country. This is the politics of full on religious division. He wants muslims to feel that they somehow now arent as equal in britain to the rest of us. When it comes to him talking about he fears for the peace. Well, i fears for the peace. Well, i fear for the peace. I fear for what happened in Parliament Square just the other week. I fear for fundraising dinners, Council Meetings that are being, you know, set upon by 20 or 30 young men. I fear for the electoral process given some of the astonishing and i think truly awful things that happened up in rochdale last week , up in rochdale last week, including intimidation, Death Threats and all the rest of it. Threats and all the rest of it. But is he right in electoral terms . Is the next election all terms . Is the next election all about muslims . I want your thoughts on this, please. Farage at gbnews. Com in a funny way , at gbnews. Com in a funny way, the muslim vote could make a very , very big difference to very, very big difference to laboun very, very big difference to labour. I met not an hour ago, a conservative member of parliament. Hes got a very small majority. He labour are challenging him. But if challenging him. But if galloways party puts up a candidate, hell probably hold his seat. So there could be all sorts of consequences. But what about the very concept of the muslim vote of now . The organisation often called the muslim vote . Is this a good, muslim vote . Is this a good, healthy thing . I worry that its deeply, deeply divisive, but im joined by mohamed, oncology solicitor , who is standing as an solicitor, who is standing as an independent parliamentary candidate for Bethnal Green and stepney at the next election and famously , he was a lawyer for famously, he was a lawyer for shamima begum, mohammed , you shamima begum, mohammed, you were going to stand as an independent in this seat. Are you now tempted to join George Galloway . No, ive come on a ticket as an independent and i think thats very important because my constituents havent felt that theyve heard or been heard by their existing politicians and an independent candidate has an advantage in that they can listen to the constituents and formulate a manifesto based on what and what we hear, what they say and what we hear, rather than have a manifesto shoved down their throat. Youve got obviously a constituency with a very high proportion of in it. Proportion of muslims in it. What what would that what and what would that represent in voting terms about 46. Yeah. Its half half, 46. Yeah. So its half and half, uh, know , uh, what is it uh, you know, uh, what is it they havent been listened to about . Well, pretty much all their issues are in terms of the average age or death rate for the average man in our constituency is ten years less than the average. So if you look at that in terms of what that means for individuals there, it means for individuals there, it means the type of life of, um, sort of problems that theyre suffering are bringing down their age by almost a fifth of their age by almost a fifth of their lifespan. Their lifespan. Theres a similar comparison, actually, between glasgow and surrey, an 11 year surrey, again, with an 11 year difference or whatever it is, it is the highest. And thats about poverty. Thats access to health thats about access to health care. Access to social services is there an access to Health Care Problem . There is an access to Health Care Problem in that we a very high population we have a very high population density in Bethnal Green. And yet of waiting lists yet in terms of waiting lists and services that are and the services that are available to when they available to people when they need them, its particularly problematic. A slightly problematic. We have a slightly ageing and ageing population as well, and the of, um , the post sort of, um, orthopaedic area is very, very difficult. So are these mohammed issues of Health Deprivation and low educational attainment, low income or do you see those as being linked to the muslim religion . Well, ill say that they are not just unique to Bethnal Green and theyre not unique to muslims in Bethnal Green. Youll find that if you green. Youll find that if you look in certain constituencies in wales or teesside, as you mentioned, well. Yeah, but mentioned, as well. Yeah, but what have is a political what we do have is a Political Class thats ignored certain groups um, groups of people. Um, you yourself know youve yourself will know that youve tapped into, um , an unsung tapped into, um, an unsung millions when talking about the brexit vote and in, in this case we have many, many people and not just muslims at all who are protesting about key issues. One of those being the issue in gaza and being felt that theyre not being heard. Now, gaza isnt the straw. Its the straw that broke straw. Its the straw that broke the camels back. Its the thing that proves that the constituents are not being listened to. And thats why galloway, in his acceptance the his acceptance speech in the hall , the first sentence was hall, the first sentence was this is for gaza. This is for gaza. Well, think its important well, i think its important that brits, you know, the that the brits, you know, the british people always been british people have always been about always been about justice and always been about justice and always been about and theyve about fair play and theyve spoken polls in terms of spoken in the polls in terms of mori polls, theyve spoken on the and they have to the the streets and they have to the tune of 71 of the british people generally in the country have been this genocide. Have been against this genocide. Yet hang on, hang on. I mean, genocide is a way over the top terme, isnt it . Its a way over the top terme. You know, we use genocide in the context of a wilful, deliberate attempt to of a group of attempt to get rid of a group of people. This not that. There people. This is not that. There is way, whatever the whatever is no way, whatever the whatever the flaws, however, over the top the flaws, however, over the top the are not the israelis are this is not they are not attempting a genocide. What the legal of what the Legal Definition of a the international a genocide is. The International Court justice has already court of justice has already ruled behaviour of ruled that the behaviour of israel in, uh, in gaza is at the foothills of a genocide, and thatis foothills of a genocide, and that is yet to be even if its at the foothills. Foothills, it is not a genocide, you see. I mean, i worry about this. I mean, you know, you tweeted on october the 7th after those barbaric, appalling , shocking attacks and appalling, shocking attacks and indeed there are still hostages indeed there are still hostages in gaza still suffering today. You said the option of settler colonisation just got taken off the table. What did you mean by that . So in terms of the Israeli Occupation of the palestinian lands, that that is by definition called the occupation. Its illegal. Israel shouldnt exist. Israel shouldnt exist. Its not should not be allowed to illegally occupy palestinian territory. Thats so it exist. I dont know it shouldnt exist. I dont know why you keep repeating that, but im whether thats im asking you whether thats what no, what . What you really mean. No, what . I clear. That i mean is quite clear. That settler occupation in the illegal occupation of israeli land, of palestinian territory, which the British Foreign which is the British Foreign policy position, is called illegal occupied territory, should not exist , you see. Should not exist, you see. I mean, the question im really asking mohammed , is really asking you, mohammed, is where do your loyalties really lie . Do your loyalties lie with lie . Do your loyalties lie with this country or with the people of this country as a collective, or do they lie with a particular group . You know, for example, group . You know, for example, a muslim group, not just in your constituency, but more broadly across the country . Where do your loyalties actually lie . So if you look at, um, my position, particularly even on gaza, the recent one. Gaza, is the most recent one. But my loyalties lie with where 71 of the british publics loyalty lie on that issue. On a snapshot at this moment in with royal family in time with the royal family uh, terms of, uh, prince uh, in terms of, uh, Prince William coming out saying that he want to see any more he doesnt want to see any more death there, all familys death there, the all familys been about that been very clear about that position well. Been very clear about that posthere well. Been very clear about that posthere are ell. Been very clear about that posthere are lots of things that there are lots of things that our political elite, there are lots with. Lots of not happy with. There are what the british are lots of what the british people are saying about this issue. There are lots unhappy people. Get that. I understand that i get that. I understand that they hate what theyre seeing in gaza. That. I fully gaza. I get all of that. I fully understand i also understand understand it. I also understand that if israel dont wipe out hamas, cross the border that if israel dont wipe out han do cross the border that if israel dont wipe out han do it cross the border that if israel dont wipe out han do it again. Ross the border that if israel dont wipe out hando it again. Sos the border that if israel dont wipe out hando it again. So theyreirder that if israel dont wipe out hando it again. So theyre iner and do it again. So theyre in a very difficult position. What im you is the im saying to you is the politics thats emerging from George Galloway. Youre George Galloway. What youre saying now, albeit far saying to me now, albeit in far more and tones , more subtle and gentle tones, is, is what happens in gaza is, is that what happens in gaza seems to matter more than whats happening in Bethnal Green . Happening in Bethnal Green . Whats happening in the uk is that have austerity. Weve that we have austerity. Weve had 13 years. No we had it for 13 years. No we havent. The National Debt has got and the National Debt has got bigger bigger bigger. Bigger and bigger and bigger. Well can we can speak to well you can we can speak to sunak to he claims thats sunak as to why he claims thats been happening, but its been getting bigger and bigger, partly pandemic partly because of the pandemic and our funds in and the misuse of our funds in that pandemic. Been getting bigger its been getting bigger because commitment because of our commitment to foreign that is not a foreign wars that is not a foreign wars that is not a foreign issue. Ukraine is not a foreign issue. Ukraine is not a foreign issue. Ukraine is not a foreign issue. And israel gaza is not a foreign issue. These are moneys being taken away, are actually relatively small sums of compared to bigger issues. I mean, look, lets go back to key. The of what to the key. The key of what george said. George galloway said election will be said the next election will be about is he right . About muslims. Is he right . Certainly if sunak has well, certainly if sunak has his way, it will be so what was sunak in your view . Well, sunak do in your view . Well, sunak do in your view . Well, sunak was recategorizing people , sunak was recategorizing people, general people and the majority of people who have been on these protests are not muslims. At least 80 are non muslims who have been on these pro palestine. There are pro palestine. And there are plenty plenty of plenty of there are plenty of white middle class girls on these etc. Understand these marches, etc. I understand plenty in these marches. I very much doubt that ive stood with them. Very much doubt that youre i very much doubt that youre welcome to to the next one. Welcome to come to the next one. Yeah. Think if i, if i oh yeah. I think if i, if i turned know, in jewish turned up, you know, in jewish kid, not id be very kid, im not sure id be very welcome. You know as well as i do some of the chanting, some of whats been said has been vile and openly racist. And exactly what our and thats exactly what our police have been police force have been contending theyve contending with. Theyve been arresting tiny numbers arresting the very tiny numbers of people who have been chanting things that unacceptable. Things that are unacceptable. And, pay for and, you know, we pay for a police force to police our freedom vast freedom of expression. The vast majority there have majority of people there have been within and been well within the law and have intention of breaking have no intention of breaking the the few that have have the law. The few that have have been dealt with and have been arrested, agrees arrested, and everyone agrees with that anyone who with the fact that anyone who breaks the law should be arrested. Is it acceptable to put from the river the sea up on the the river to the sea up on the elizabeth tower beneath big ben . That entirely unproblematic. Unproblematic,
