After the resignation of Respect Party chairman Salma Yaqoob, George Galloway is asked if he believes the Respect Party is still a place for women. While giving his answer and discussing the ongoing rape allegations involving Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, George Galloway responds to another member of the audience who calls him a 'homophobe'.
ABOUT GEORGE GALLOWAY:
Few contemporary politicians have attracted as much controversy as George Galloway. A Labour MP from 1987 to 2003, he was an outspoken critic of the policies of Tony Blair and New Labour, in particular the decision to invade Iraq. Fiery comments such as "the best thing British troops can do is to refuse to obey illegal orders" saw Galloway expelled from the Labour Party. But Galloway returned to the political fray by founding the Respect Party and winning Bethnal Green and Bow in the 2005 General Election. Mr Galloway re-entered Parliament in this March as MP for Bradford West and has recently provoked controversy and criticism with his comments on the rape charges against Wikileaks' Julian Assange.

Great speech. Thank you George Galloway for defending Julian.
Free Julian Assange
Amazing to see many Oxford students are like this, really bringing down the intelligence level of such an institution.
Students are intelligent but lack common sense.
But the kids question is not bad. Except you are referring to something else
Inteligence is nothing without common sense and selfcontrol, its like if you give a monkey do drive a ferari, its dangerous
Lmfaoo that’s the whole reason for the school bro
@@Bugneedfix yes bro im dummer every year, i finished civil enginer i feel like i lost everything i have, had, wanted, i must now climb up
As Swedish citizen I´am ashamed.
I bet im more ashamed of being British my friend.
Don't be ashamed! Be Galloway in Sweden!
As an Australian, I am too brother
George Gallorway is a man of truth and honesty... One of the best debators i have ever seen, we need more of George Galloway in this world
It's easy for him because he always sides with the truth.
Exactly, less to remember@@maroofali2142
What a great speaker he is, perfectly able to convey anger in a controlled manner.
If these are the most intelligent people humanity has offer, attending the most prestige university in the world. we are literally all fuck'd
I was thinking the very same thing especially the for eyes fat fuck who was bitch slapped buy George.
This man has singlehandedly just made more of a public appeal than the entire Australian government has done during the entirety of this whole saga. I IMMEDIATELY respect this man more than my entire government.
Agreed however there are a few Labor pollies like Julian Hill (Member for Bruce) who have proudly and openly campaigned for the release of Julian Assange
With a new Labor government hopefully Albo steps in and tries bringing him back here

The same with me after watching his speech in this video, he earned my respect instantly.
Until now I thought that Oxford students were highly intelligent, I clearly thought wrong
I would imagine there are a lot of highly intelligent as well as deprived, entitled, lucky, meriting, privileged, spoiled, studious, & well raised individuals there.
FREEDOM FOR JULIAN ASSANGE,
Good man ; GEORGE GALLOWAY -TOTAL RESPECT!
Yes! I Totally agree with you!
Well we’re told he’s sexually assaulted a woman
@Yusri 1055 perhaps. I don’t have any evidence on that so I can neither reject or accept your claim.
I WAS THERE THE DAY THE POLICE BROKE IN AND GOT HIM IT REALY PISSED ME OFF SO UNJUST
@@fourfundamentals210 They always say that about anyone who they want to lock up and is speaking the truth and is influential. You really think it is not because of the iraqi and Afghanistan war logs?
I love George. Don't always, in fact, don't usually, agree with him. But he speaks of HIS beliefs, no bullshit, no spin....you always know where you stand with him. Unlike almost every other politician ever.
czcams.com/video/MCotJGYxzYE/video.html
i don't agree with him on anything either. However, I like his style and I find him supremely entertaining.
It seems you know a different George to everyone else.
An enemy if God he is!
Putin likes him.
"You are intelligent people..." George, George, GEORGE! No they are not.
They may have intelligence, but they dearly lack real world experience and thus, sufficient exposure to governments passing lies off as truth.

i sensed SARCASM when he said that.

I'm sure they'll passively soak up complex information to be successful cogs in the machine,but ask them to exercise enough critical thought to boil an egg and they'll break into a sweat.
GEORGE = LEGEND
George Galloway is an incredible debater wow
always has been
He's a bully
@@matimus100 if anything, he was bullied at the end of the video.
@@matimus100 no
You should here the devil
I've just discovered Mr Galloway for myself and I gotta say, my respect for this man is climbing at a very rapid pace.
Loki Farbautason Stay calm, he thinks he's never wrong and that's a big problem, so think profoundly and know your stuff
@@Solmaz_S I didn’t know I was giving lessons. So who the he’ll are you to think it?
Totall respect to Mr George Galloway. He is totally right about Julian Assange, a hero. The world owes him a huge debt. Sad day today for JA in London.
Yeah, he’s not a well man right now. He and Tommy Robinson had a long conversation (through a window) in Belmarsh. Robinson and Galloway HATE each other despite agreeing on a bunch of things. On the things they disagree with - they’ve formed their views through their own lived experience and both believe passionately that they’re fighting for what’s right and just. I can understand both positions but they’re at complete odds with each other. It’s a complex world.
Everybody said Assange was paranoid and making up excuses to avoid rape "charges". Turns out he wasn't paranoid , it was completely true that there was an intention to extradite him for nothing to do with those allegations.
The charges against Assange dropped without proper cause and merit.
This video, and your comment didn't age badly. It was obvious and clear as crystal that Assange was hunted from leading a organization revealing truths from corrupted people in the West.
Everyone could see that, but nothing helped him in the end, when he was finally gotten in the USA, and is now maybe silenced forever...
anyone with a brain knows how it goes. Always defame with allegations of sexual assault, no evidence, no testimony - none which are credible anyway, as soon as you go against the system, they smear you personally to no end.
George put that four eyed little pumpkin in his place. He even had the arrogance to shrug his shoulders.
That was a him?! thought it was a girl lol. Arrogant little shite can't even have the decency to listen
That was particularly angering. He not only casually decides that he can just ruin a person's integrity WITHOUT any research about him, he doesn't even care that he's wrong when he's called out. It's like the rules of reality do not apply to this little shit. Ignorance combined with arrogance is my least favorite quality.
This stupid stooge is just one in the crowd planted ( like in every speech or public appearence of Mr. Galloway)to try to rattle and misrepresent the GREAT George Galloway. I am sure that wasn't even his question.
Probably a stooge at Jordan Petersens talks also. Angry at everyone because their own lives are so unmanageable.
There is no need to throw irrelevant insults. Be kind or you’ll not be taken seriously. Ad hominem.
The more and more I listen to George the more I realise I agree with him on a lot of issues yet he is constantly discredited by our terrible biased media
He's a threat to the ruling powers on this planet.
It will takes ages for many to believe him.
Everybody is against him.
--- not just the media.
@@davidockley2987 :)
I'll second that
@@cautiondonotsubscribe.1199 ??????
How prophetic is Gearge Galloway. As I write this. All charges against Asanje have been dropped by the Swedish authority.
It's astounding how thick and ill-informed some of the students are in these videos. Oxford students no less. You'll find much more wisdom in most pubs.
Well, It`s less astounding when you realise most have no doubt been sent there by rich parents, So luck of birth is probably playing a large role in the warpped attendance, Even if that mouthy kid is the village idiot, His kids fat ass is going to strain the seat
Tara Moon Monied Father sh*gs his pretty thick secretary.Unfortunately kids end up with money and thick gene.See it all the time.
They probably only mix in their own circles and on Facebook. They will go straight from Uni to being bag carriers for MPs then be MPSs themselves then the house of lords.
Oxford = Grossly over rated.
Lucky you have GG to wake them up.
Your a truth speaker George, keep it up Brother!
*You're, but yes.
Which is why they keep trying to rob him of power.
I belatedly saw this video, and am 100% behind Assange and 90% behind Galloway.
Assange's fears (about the US being determined to extradite him for revealing the truth against them) has been proven to be true.
Well said George ! Shut the fools up...
Wow, I must say, George surprised me but not as much as the stupidity of some Oxford students in these clips.
and Galloway is proved right once again
George was right, charges were dropped
@@Solmaz_S reconsider what?
this dude's the real deal
And u ain't talking Holyfield either.
no. hes just a loudmouthed egotistical C#$T who stood on TV WITH Saddam Hussein slavishly praising him
George says that he has been told that Assange is a weird fellow, then the fat guy calls him "homephobe" ? WTF? What have I missed?
Eddie Konjic trolls only work behind keyboards, once they are out in the open they don't last long, as George clearly showed.
+kinetic static that's so true
+Eddie Konjic the fat guy probably puts himself in that "weird" catergory, that s why he followed up on it. attention seeker i guess.
No i dont think its because he used the word weird, by the sounds of it the audience member said more than "homophobe" (telling from galloway's reactions and replies to him), the student probably shouted out a quote he thought galloway had said because galloway responded with "the words you just attributed to me" even though we didnt hear him attribute any words to him
shouldn't matter if you're afraid of gay people though... if you hate them and do something about it, that's one thing - but I really don't get this whole problem with having phobias of gay people, muslims, whatever - people should be allowed to be afraid of whatever they want to be. or even if they dislike, that's still ok too. Nobody has to like anything. This world is crazy.
7:27 - The look of being utterly defeated and only being able to smirk through it...
The more I listen to George Galloway, the more I like him and what he stands for
One of the UK's most valuable treasures: George Galloway.
And our British judge called Julian narcissistic yesterday (11.04.2019), a personal attack on his character. Julian has been trapped in a tiny room for the past seven years, the judge himself is narcissistic for not having any empathy of Julian's mental state of mind.
I may not know 100% about Assange's story, but I can say that a man willing to risk being exiled from his own country to expose some of the government's most terrible acts - to lose his home, family, friends, property - what kind of Judge would mistake such an act for narcissism?
I just recently discovered this man.He is a pure gem.
Great man, you will know what you don't know now. Absolutely right
Galloway could stand in front of me and proclaim "I am not here." I wouldn't dare challenge him on that, nor on any other subject, because he's a masterful debater. I don't understand why people heckle him so often. They have to know their defeat is inevitable.
being defeated by this man seems to be like a fetish for some people. I would pay for him to yell at me every time i say or do something stupid.
He feeds off of it
@@davidockley2987 , he handles it very well because he has knowledge and experience of what he is talking about. He has 'been there and has done that'...he has intimate knowledge of what he talks about. Can't beat a debater armed in this way.
Bravo George..you make a difference. Just keep on keeping on!
Like him or loathe him, GG is a talented orator. His speech to the US Senate in 2005 is worth a watch.
Long live George Galloway for always saying the truth about the atrocities committed by his own race.
Well! he was right about JA wasn't he
yep
Knowledge is power and it's like listening to a Sage. He truly believes in what he's saying, not spewing some crud. Also he said recently that his opinions change when the facts change. He's a truth seeker. I don't always agree with everything he's said but he gets my respect for sharing his truth
BOOM! And that's how it is done! Hats off to my fellow Scot, Mr.Galloway!
Galloway possesses as much passion and calmness as he does articulation and verbal strengths that will always.....if based on truth...win the arguments in any debate.
He should be given cart blanch to sort out the worlds problems.
Oh and the line ..."if your not a student you should consult one" is pure genius.
I am disappointed in Sweden. Unfortunately the country i live and come from.
John Solo ashamed would be a better word to use.
Scottish accent: Check. Eloquence: Check. Left leaning: Check. Loud voice: Check. I love that man. Can't you brits make him PM instead of douches like Bliar and Cameron?
coljackdripperofburp totally agree with you, but in Britain we just vote for whoever the media tells us to
Being left leaning is nothing to extol.
Galloway is in fact Irish ... not Scottish
coljackdripperofburp
No: there is little room for integrity in British politics though it is not as vile here as in the US
Or that crazy May
The man is near in tears to be called a homophobe, the trash and ignorance of them kids knows no bounds. I am repeatedly ashamed of many gay brothers of mine that's so horrendously ill informed and self entitled.
As is so often the case, GG is proven 100% correct years after he speaks on matters in which the court of public opinion is firmly in opposition to his views.
7 years later and he was right.
Well said GG, particularly your views on Assange...
Well said George.
I should stop watching CZcams because I am losing faith in humans every time I witness arrogance like this (especially in places held in such high esteem like Oxford university). It amazes me, when people like Galloway attempt to surface the truth, people will blindly (sometimes violently) lash out because they are incapable of accepting it.
Izhar Mirza Are you of the belief that George Galloway AL Dundee is in possession of the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth 100% of the time? If so, then you are a fool.
ibleed1 I can see how you would think that but unfortunately I'm not that stupid. Not as stupid as those two I saw in the video at least.
Wow, they really throw any lie at him, meanwhile he has a decade old story of fighting against the very thing they accuse him of
Prime example of knowledge and wisdom! These kids might have access to knowledge but wisdom will be hard to get in their capsuled life
Immense respect for this man.
Unfortunately, the audience members don't know some basic ethical rules of listening.
I wish audience members were well prepared and knowledgeable about what questions they were asking and commenting on.
YES! Julian Assauge is another GOD SEND- 1 in a million- HERO for TRUTH! 1 hero backs another!
How can they be called students with that attitude?
galloway was right about assange. his releases through wikileaks proved it
it's 2017. and the charges are dropped. booya
How right he was!!!
Mighty George Galloway. The Last of the Truly Great Men.
I'm surprised George is still about. Elite don't like these type of truth telling people.
Still has revelance today April 2019!
i love the pace of his speech
George Gallow a Lord of truth, honesty and humanity.
long live George
Well he was spot on as reguards the assault charges as the Swedish courts have completely dropped this case . Well done
Fuck yeah - beat some fucking truth into them George.
He was so right !
slaughtered the detractors with his brain. again. good work george.
Gwarn George! Always talking sense.
things kids have little memory of history as they have just come out of the egg.. George is a warhorse.. a master politician
It's like he shot that guy.
Thank You #oxfordunion and #georgegalloway for the #infinitology of #julianassange
George always looks absolutely hammered! Look at those eyes
Daniel Smith - He's teetotal. Lifelong. Supposedly never touched a drop. I would think that the fact of him being the most commanding and compelling political orator and debater that this country has to offer would not lead you to opine on the possibility of him being a alcoholic. Junkies of all kinds would never be able to publicly speak with such lucidity as consistently as Galloway does.
I do not agree with George Galloway on everything but to accuse him of being homophobic is wrong on so many level's I would say that by looking at that kid's appearance he appears to a halfwit but I won't because that would be bigoted against halfwits!
Wind Walker Along with racism, anti semitism and misogyny, homophobia is one of those buzz word insults thrown at people in an attempt to silence them. Unfortunately it is often used against the people fighting for the rights of the oppressed. There seems to be this toxic element on the left emerging that is fuelling the rights rhetoric rather than actually sticking up for there own rights.
Well I except everyone for what they are gay black white green yellow But I would hazard a guess that there are a few gay people out there that are idiots, being an idiot does not have color or sexual preference. That idiot was outclassed on all counts.
He's halfwit alright , along with his soppy little mate next to him.... entitled Pratt's.
As always with Galloway... this has aged like fine wine. 5:32 I wonder if that lady still thinks about that moment.
George Galloway is a champion for truth. Listen to what this man has to say on many important topics.
I could listen to this man all day.
This aged well.
I don't agree with all of his politics, but I do like Mr Galloway.
His speech is 12 years ago. Today 2024, his speech rings true.
Mr galloway stands up for the right of humanity respect to him
You tell em
George 😊
George Galloway.... Legend!
God bless your free soul
6:34 - It's that "I'm the only gay in the village/everyone's a homophobe" character from Little Britain come to life!
Haha....spot on!!!! Uncanny resemblance too!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 complete with Myfawnwy sitting next to him
Just goes to show money don’t buy you Brains !!!
Class dismissed by Prof. Galloway!
if only it was CLASS dismissed.
Brilliant response in defense of the truth !!!
He always said truth
I didn't realize George taught at Hogwarts.
Vladimir Eng nice one! 🤣😂🤣
cant have a simple discussion before a gay guy jumps in. all about me,me,me with these people.
right....loool
I think the little chubby lad didn't mean anything, conversation went above his head and just wanted to be chased round the room a few times. Lol.
100% right ,oh im gay or im a vegan etc weirdos
it is called being a "vocal minority"... this is the plague of the modern era.. people getting offended for no reason and then causing all kinds of problems because of it. Also known as being selfish. In the UK people can get in serious trouble just for tweeting things other people don't like. It's sad. People have a right to an opinion. They have a right to express an opinion. They shouldn't have a right to force other people to adopt that opinion.
Oxford university need to educate their students better. Their knowledge is shameful to the establishment they are studying in.
God bless him for speaking the truth
I believe the charges were faulse too. It was quite obvious. They picked something serious that could be manufactured.
7.26! That moment when comfortable cloistered exceptionalism meets a pound for pound heavyweight brawler!
Free Assange, free Australian!!
Proved right once again.
Want to know the future of the British empire? It's hopeless. Just look at these Oxford students. I feel sad for George Galloway.
Galloway what a legend!
This aged well for George.
Terrific.
My god....those people will be the future???????? Disaster will come ...
