Labour suspends Galloway pending internal investigation

GEORGE GALLOWAY has been suspended from the Labour Party pending “internal party investigations”.

The left-winger had come under fire for remarks he made at the height of the Iraq war when he branded Tony Blair “a wolf” and made comments seen as urging Arabs to rise up against the coalition forces.

He had also said, in an interview with Abu Dhabi television, that British troops should refuse to follow what he said were illegal orders.
