Yeah I honestly don't know. His interview with Novara (on youtube) sorta made me feel better about it but then not really. He said some good things (about respect and dignity) but then some bad things (won't repeat here because it's offensive). He's a massive missed opportunity but he's not the whole party. Looks like they have a huge number of minority candidates who seem like genuinely good people and not terfs or homophobes.
The immensely frustrating thing about him is that he would be the perfect politician for the moment if it wasn't... for those things. We need someone on the left who not only doesn't give a fuck about lib sensitivities, but actually goes out of their way to point out that libs are disgusting, immoral, shameless and violent. That libs have lost all moral and pragmatic credibility, and have no business policing the respectability of anyone else. Exactly the way Galloway does. Instead all we get from most of our left politicians is varying degrees of cowardice, timidity, and deference to a machine that has no intention of allowing the left to succeed. But Galloway is throwing some of the most marginalised and vulnerable people in this country under the fucking bus to get approval from a bunch of red-faced fucks. He doesn't even need to do it!
