George Galloway, who works for the Russian Government-funded broadcaster, Russia Today...not that that has any influence on his utterances, of course...
thecouchtripper Ah, yet another of the rape apologist's tedious, microcephalic toadies. Run along bottom feeder, there's nothing for you here
thecouchtripper You should look up the word "irony" sometime. Anyway, it's clear you're not very bright and anyone worshipping at the altar of Galloway is as appealing as the contents of Litvinenko's tea, so I shall bid you good fortune as the standard-bearer for your novel interpretation of integrity
thecouchtripper Oh, so because serial fabricator Galloway denied it, you automatically accepted his denial? Right you are
thecouchtripper No, you tiresome buffoon, I can back up every point I've made, whilst you have demonstrated quite ably that you accept Galloway's word without question and without assimilating wider information, which is the behaviour of a weak minded cretin. Now where have I heard that term before?
+mongol tyrant I can't stand the Ministry of Truth you clueless fuckwit, so don't try to pin any of that Savile bullshit on me. Moreover, why would a supposedly Bolshevist institution serve as the mouthpiece of the Tories? Politics really isn't your thing. I also note you're a knuckle-dragging homophobe - Putin and PressTV salute you
seriously, Goerge Galloway should go for Prime Minister.
😬
Can’t even win a by-election after whipping up racial tensions for weeks. He managed it once but can’t replicate jt
Great in debates I know but PM? No thanks.
@@dboulding What not if he took his hat off and wore a tie? Great in debates - well he talks a lot, ie how can he "Know Polinium." by seeing someone die of it.
Galloway is spot on !
What was spot on here?
Ive noticed that in most george galloway videos the comments section is disabled, this is a rarity.
I like Galloway,, he doesn't put up with the bull Shit..
+John James You can't be serious. Galloway is an absolute fucknozzle, an apologist for torturers and arms dealers like the Iranian and Russian governments, and he's been very well compensated via RT and PressTV to the tune of 400k a year. The bull shit is the gullible, credulous people like you are so easily taken in
+John James he is the bullshit!
+LordHealey yes only fascist according to your claim is Russia & Iran...and almost 100000 people who are killed in Iraq for nothing due to atrocities of two superpower are because of angelic love and sympathy they got from these human faced monsters who also sedated the whole people of the world before doing such heinous crime in the history of mankind by their media BBC, FOX & CNN illusion.
+ufoools
Britain and USA are Terrorist States, lets Not get it Twisted here.. The Middle East Are filthy terrorist States also - its just us innocent citizens caught in the Middle of the Games of these Power Broker Countries are just Fuckin Pawns and Money Slaves.. As for BBC TV - whatta fuckin Joke, Zionist Puppet..
Litvinenko was Smuggling Polonium for the JEWISH Russian Oligarchs who are now living in ISRAEL/BRITAIN such as Berezovsky who was also Murdered by MOSSAD to keep him Quiet.. A little Research will REVEAL all that....
Ray Staff LOL that is friking hilarious mate. go tell me more, let me guess the earth is flat and man didn't go to the moon
BBC have edited out Evan's insinuating George is biased because he is paid by the Russian state. That is why he reminded Evan that he too is a state sponsored broadcaster
But the BBC were right to do this as RT is a thinly veiled Russian propaganda outlet just as the BBC is an anti-government left wing outlet.
@@dbouldingIdk, they took Corbyn down pretty efficiently for an anti government outlet. Which is government owned btw
Galloway......brilliant as usual!
Why?
galloway destroyed slippery Evan
Used to look on Galloway as a total idiot, now I fully accept I was wrong.
The four Britons I know think that Evan Davis is a crank. So I believe them.
The timing of that Stalin quip was excellent.
George Galloway says things that no other politician in Britain would dare to say, fact , some will agree with his statements some won,t , but in my honest opinion he speaks common sense.
It is very obvious when u use all ur resources against the weeker one u attain hatred.
well said george. congratulations a job well done.
The thing I have always found with George Galloway is when he says something sometimes I don't want to hear it. Then ten years later I realise he was right all along.
Which of his European unions does that apply to
Good to see you George!!
“Look, I know plutonium 2 10” 😂😂😂
He did witness Yasser Arafat's murder, so yes he did know it
He knows because he saw someone die of it???? They established exactly what it was that killed him and it was a tiny portion of one that was bred in a Russian factory. Only months before the Russian Duomo voted to treat any person who did not comply with their dictate to serious consequences (assination) and that would have to be approved by the man at the top PUTIN. Look at just how many Multi Billionaires have met with accidents causing deaths recently. The man we are talking went from the KGB to the FSB, more secret , than the KGB and foolishly identified many of his colleagues' to be corrupt. He knew he was a target for assination. They chose poison because it was easier than throwing him out of a high window in London.
Galloway makes an excellent point; we have to realise the seriousness of the accusation and the potential consequences it has for Britain's future relations to Russia--but the evidence is convincing how would this be orchestrated without Putin? We're not dealing with Iraq, we're dealing with a very strong and proud country.
+Andrew Wells Probably Putin - but no evidence! Illegal invasion of Iraq by Blair - There is plenty of evidence - Why is he not being convicted of war crimes along with his buddy Bush junior?
As with the Scripol poisonings my question would be why does the UK and America have novichock in their possession other than to discredit an enemy.
Wow George Galloway Is truly a voice of the people. This man cares about the future of european diplomacy. He is truly a force for good in the world. Knowing that its a shocker that plutonium-2 hasn't turned up in his tea already! I bet he makes his own tea.
Why did the BBC invite Galloway on? He's hardly the best example of an impartial commentator is he? All they've done is provide him with a platform to spout his state-backed nonsense
That guy tries so hard to make this into an anti-Putin propaganda piece it's even hard to watch.
Looks like he was right tho'. Putin is a monster.
Gotta go with George on this one. Putin at least works for his country.
Graham6762 Are you fucking kidding me, no he fucking doesn't! He works to fulfill his own ambitions and to consolidate power in his own hands and that of his cronies.
Putin's interests are like all dictators, bad for everyone else
Here we go again asking questions on this program that the presenter already decided which is the answer so the answers by the guests are irrelevant what a biased double standards programme this is
Gorgeous George is always fantastic with his debates whether you disagree with him or not.
It's worth remembering that until RT was banned he was taking an income from the Russians as he worked for the Russian state TV.
It's fascinating you're saying this under a video from the BBC whose workers take an income from Brits as the BBC is UK's state TV. Oh, the irony.
Why do they keep referring to it as 'PLUTONIUM 210' (sic)?!
Ukraine providing Wheat to various countries War created hunger only for them but their neighbors also suffered it was in excepted for them since March 2022 boarder are seazed for Trade.

Not sure if that's a gesture or a weird way of scratching an itch.
Looks sus😂
I think this guy is one of the most unpatriotic Brits I've had the displeasure to set eyes on
Patriotism is the last hidding place for a scoundrel.......
Considering the situation in the resent decades, I do not think any fire of true patriotism can be ignited in the UK.
Who? The pathetic interviewer...?
Hasbara trolls in a tizzy, below.. LMAO
+011258stooie
Where ever and when ever truth makes its appearance, the trolls come out of the woodwork. Way to go George.
Lol I say that too. HASBORAH 💩 is all over you tube.
Why is that muppet wearing a wide brimmed hat in a television studio? It must be 40 degrees in there under the lights, and Galloway is dressed like he's off for a walk in the cold.
+delacaravanio
What the hell does what he is wearing have to do with anything?
Evan davies is a terrible host.
+Darren Russell V He's a paid propaganda shill, in on the game.
6.44 his words onwards till end TRUTH
Alex Goldfarb is a liar.
Failure of the principles of good governance: transparency, accountability, due diligence, acting in good faith etc. Even the people in the third world country where I lived know these basic tenets and they can't access at times secondary school education.
Evan Davis a poor tool after the great man he followed, George Galloway kicked his arse.
+Garry Wilson He truly is a hero. What a colossus; a shining, exalted knight who stands for all that's good and true in the world. It's a tragedy that so many people will never get to meet the great man and breathe the same air. His accomplishments are so numerous I literally can't even think of one; his work towards undermining dictatorships around the world so courageous and dignified that Saddam surely trembled back in the nineties when Galloway bravely defied him by bowing deeply and calling him 'a great man'.
In fact, Galloway has never met a vicious dictator he wasn't prepared to engage in dialogue with and we should be eternally grateful for his consistency in reminding us stupid westerners about all the good things mass-murdering tyrants do. After all it's easy to caricature Assad as a 'bad guy' just because of the barrel-bombs and the torture/kidnappings/secret police and the 400,000 Syrians he helped chivvy along to the afterlife - yet people forget that he's also a very keen gardener, and he likes animals(cows can be fired from cannons for example - they make excellent area-of-effect, splash-damage weapons). As for Putin, he's simply a top man, with an excellent collection of malt whiskeys and a quirky sense of humour. The things he'll put in your soup at dinner! Very misunderstood guy.
I digress. Viva George!
i dislike evan davies what a government mouth piece
Awful state run tv presenter. George Galloway is 👌 awesome.
your a presenter of a state broadcaster too wow
Evan Davis gives me the creeps.
+Yushua He looks like a mutant foetus - maybe even patient zero of the ZIka virus.
+dave long is he gay?
+Dr. Ralph Kennedy lol yes
+dave long I don't care if he is gay.lol
I wouldn't leave him alone with a child or small animal even.
Yushua Definitely not with a gerbil, a hosepipe and a roll of duct tape.
if the UK government told me which way left and right were id be tossing myself off with my left hand...
😆😅🤣😂👍🙂
@@themasteryourdaddy.6307 what sort of name isthat
What kind of name is a made up character of a soap, you dumb fool. Your not frank butcher, hes dead.
Im your master and Daddy ......
@@themasteryourdaddy.6307 no your just WEIRD!
If an evidence a secret, I call it what it is, a bulls..t!
This character Goldfarb could probably do with a nice Hot Cup of Tea too
clue i sign my name with my right hand
Look at our own MPS . Do you trust them all ! .
galloway ain't stupid, not at all, however, in spite of his sharpness, he's also a businessman with a few agendas ...
I NO WHO DID IT IT WAS THE REPORTER TRYING TO SHIFT THE BLAME
Putin : a good "thing " ? Should presidents be described as things
Roaring like a lion when Russia is concerned but no louder than a mouse when it comes to flogging or dismembering of journalists from our “allies”.
Yeah he’s a joke and always has been
Another example of Whitehall farts
Once again G.G. thank for putting a different perspective on this never ending story of Russia-phobia.
Seriously…60 + years to wait and see the hidden facts and people are ready to believe the current narrative as truth.
I’m here today because of the forthcoming ITV drama about Litvinenko.
I won’t waste my time thanks to this video.
3 ppl
2 kik*'s
1 non kik*
He steals the argument in a very specific direction.terrible.kirsty does it more subtly but paxman would have caned all angles.this guy should stick to the dragons den
Don't ever say a bad word about Vlad ,George or that's the Russia Today gig down the drain and the kids' school fees.
I usually respect George Galloway but why the heck is he sympathizing for Putin?
+Olisa Maduegbuna
Because Putin isn't actually the devil incarnate? Because the hostility from the West towards Russia is blatant and disturbing?
+Olisa Maduegbuna Galloway is paid by the russian government through Russia Today
In the same way as he's paid by the BBC... It's called "appearing on an interview".
Or you could just suggest that anyone that doesn't agree with our unanimous government & media opinion is a shill, if that's what you mean.
rchave galloway has a long history of supporting dictators (from putin to saddam to assad) in his misguided belief that he is opposing american imperialism
Please look up the word "dictator", not from NATO's dictionary but a proper one.
Plus I guess he's been vindicated by obvious results... Iraq is a worse place after we bombed it. Libya is a worse place after we bombed it. Syria is a worse place after we tried imposing regime change.
You don't have to love a country's president to oppose bombing the fuck out of said country.
Galloway is a disgrace.
Your mum should have swallowed.
Knowing what we know now, Galloway looks like an absolute clown here.
The MP for Moscow South...
