CN Live! spoke to Galloway campaign manager James Giles and Chris Williamson (below), deputy leader of the Workers Party of Britain, in the vote counting center in Rochdale on Thursday night.
Interviewers: Cathy Vogan and Joe Lauria. Producer: Cathy Vogan.
I don’t exactly know who these two guys were, but they came across as being extremely articulate and knowledgeable. This unlike the sitting Members of Parliament (House Of Commons) who are basically stupid, worthless and up for sale. Six hundred plus non-entities in the Lower House who couldn’t raise a whisper of defiance among the lot of them. Not forgetting, of course, the House of Lords (House Of Lords) who are even worse than the Commons.
We need to be aware that the political systems in both the UK and US are totally controlled by forces outside:- the media, the financial system, and global geo-politics.
So will the people in the street change the world? We shall wait and we shall see.
Galloway is interested in the Kennedys and endorsed the book on the Robert Kennedy assassination by Tim Tate and Brad Johnson. That is the one that, amongst other things, seeks to identify the girl in the polka dot dress.
One of several fine books on the subject by various authors.
Thank you, Joe Lauria and the rest, of the team at CN.
