U.K. Member of Parliament George Galloway was denied entry into Canada in the spring of 2009. Mr. Galloway is now embroiled in a court case with Canadian Immigration Minister Jason Kenney in Canada to win the right to enter Canada. Am Johal caught up with him while he was on the campaign trail in the United Kingdom.
Q - How is the U.K. election shaping up? What do you make of the choice between Labor and the Conservatives?
Well it was a choice between Tweedledum and Tweedledee until the first election debate between the party leaders—the first in British history incidentally—and the Liberal Democrat Nick Clegg stormed through the middle. So now there's a third dog in the fight, Tweedledummer. According to the latest opinion polls, Labor is now third, behind the Lib Dems and
Tories. … But really it has all been based on style rather than substance. All three are promising savage cuts, although, to the credit of the Lib Dems, they want to scrap Trident and provide an amnesty for illegal immigrants. My campaign in Poplar and Limehouse has been roaring along, principally from the top of an old, red, open-topped London bus. The reception has been fantastic, better at this stage than it was at the same point five years ago.
