Rebel will fight to clear name, having reaped over £250,000 for libel

LABOUR rebel George Galloway has regularly been a thorn in the side of both the Prime Minister and some sections of the media.

He is notoriously good at defending his reputation and, so far, has been successful in about 20 libel cases.

The £55,000-a-year MP has reaped over £250,000 from court proceedings against the media.
