Galloway attacked in street - broken jaw, rib

I don't think he was actually arrested for them remarks - he was investigated and if I recall correctly went willingly to the police to answer any questions:

One does wonder though - If this was a muslim guy who had assaulted an MP, I'm pretty sure his religious 'persuasion' would have been plastered everywhere. A zionist assaults an MP and the holocaust card is all thats played.....

If a Muslim were to attack Galloway it would probably be a Shia muslim and the holocaust could be referring to what's happening in Islamic State right now.
 
Having viewed lots of videos on Galloway I actually think he's right on a lot of points he makes. I used to think he was a right plonker before actually watching what he actually said against Zionists etc.


Always makes me laugh watching the senate video of Galloway making the chairperson look stupid with the questions he asked Galloway.

He's actually pro-palestinian and used to support Fatah and the PLO. I believe he used to be married to a palestinian woman which is why he supports their cause.

Typical pro-zionists try to make out that he supports the 'terrorists' - surprise surprise.

It just goes to show the extremes pro-zionists go to (Typical of how Israel acts tbh) - resorting to violence if anything bad is said against them.

Nonetheless he is not prepared to neglect the Palestinian struggle against Zionist imperialism simply because they elected Hamas and not Fatah. One of Galloway’s most recent “crimes” in the eyes of his detractors was to lead a convey of aid to the starving captives of the Gaza ghetto (see: www.vivapalestina.com ). If he is guilty of providing support to Hamas, it was with ambulances, medicine and baby diapers, rather than with bombs, guns and chemical weapons as is the case with the US government to Israel

Respect MP George Galloway has been blocked from visiting Canada because of his support for Hamas, the country's immigration office has said.

Mr Galloway was reported to be giving a speech in Toronto later this month but has been denied entry because he is said to be a threat to national security.

Immigration minister Alykhan Velshi said: "I'm sure Galloway has a large Rolodex of friends in regimes elsewhere in the world willing to roll out the red carpet for him.

"Canada, however, won't be one of them.

"We're going to uphold the law, not give special treatment to a street-corner Cromwell who brags about giving 'financial support' to Hamas, a terrorist organisation banned in Canada."

Can you go into a bit more detail here? In your own opinion, of course. I'm curious.

Despite what some may think, arrest is not arbitrary and other than reasonable suspicion, the arrest must satisfy one or more criteria as legislated under Sec 24 of the Police And Criminal Evidence Act and as amended by the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act.... also known as the necessity test and a custody sergeant must be satisfied to get the detained person through the door.

They are .....

to enable the name (and address) of the person in question to be ascertained (in the case where the constable does not know, and cannot readily ascertain, the person's name, or has reasonable grounds for doubting whether a name given by the person as his name is his real name);

Hopefully self explanatory. George Galloway is well known and hardly likely to give duff details.

to prevent the person in question-


(i) causing physical injury to himself or any other person;
(ii) suffering physical injury;
(iii) causing loss of or damage to property;
(iv) committing an offence against public decency (subject to subsection (6)); or
(v) causing an unlawful obstruction of the highway;

None of the above are applicable in the case if George Galloway. Public decency would not fall into the allegation against him.

(d) to protect a child or other vulnerable person from the person in question;

Not applicable.

(e) to allow the prompt and effective investigation of the offence or of the conduct of the person in question;

George Galloway, should he present himself to a police station to answer questions as a voluntary attender and under caution, would not need to be arrested under this sub section. If he refused to attend voluntarily then it may become applicable.

to prevent any prosecution for the offence from being hindered by the disappearance of the person in question.

Very unlikely with George Galloway.

I don't see any criteria that would have necessitated the arrest of Mr Galloway.
