A 39-year-old man has been charged with a religiously aggravated assault on controversial MP George Galloway who was left battered and bruised in an alleged street attack. The pro-Palestine politician suffered a suspected broken jaw and rib as well as facial injuries following an incident in Golborne Road, Notting Hill, London, on Friday evening. He was allegedly attacked by a man wholeapt at him and punched him after "shouting about the Holocaust", Galloway's spokesman said. Mr Galloway, who represents Bradford West for the Respect Party, was interviewed earlier this month by West Yorkshire Police, following a speech in Leeds in which he claimed Bradford was "an Israel-free zone." A man was arrested by police shortly after the attack and questioned by detectives overnight. The Metropolitan Police said Neil Masterson, 39, of Camden Hill, London, will appear before Hammersmith Magistrates' Court on Monday. The force said he was charged with "assault by beating which is religiously aggravated on a male in his 60s and also common assault on a male in his 40s". It was understood the second charge related to a member of the public who stepped in. Galloway had been posing for pictures with people in Golborne Road, Notting Hill, London before the attack. He was treated overnight at St Mary's Hospital, Paddington and released on Saturday morning. Get well soon George
Like the fella who just defected to UKIP because of his principles? Galloway is a **** and a charlatan, and he only cares about his ego.
The **** that defected to UKIP is a nazi fascist **** too right wing even for the Tory scum. He wasn't tempted over by the politics but by the money flashed by the stinking rich backers of UKIP. GG is without doubt an attention seeking egotistical **** but he has integrity, principals and a moral duty he never waives from.
I'm not sure you know what those words mean. The guy gave up his Tory seat so he could defect to another party purely because he's Eurosceptic and David Cameron isn't. Galloway doesn't have integrity, principles and a moral duty he never waives from as he's against Scottish Independence, yet he's in favour of independence for other nations. The man's a hypocrite.
How does that make him a hypocrite? Independence from what? We are currently one nation called the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland
And UKIP want complete independence from the European Union, but that makes them Nazis in your eyes. The case for Scottish Independence is very similar to UKIP's objection to the EU. Anyway, Galloway's a ****.
You need to research UKIP a little more, their European agenda is only a front. They are a right wing organisation backed by very wealthy fascist scum. And yes I agree Galloway is a **** but he has a lot more honesty and decency than most other politicians. please log in to view this image
