Galloway (Labour MP, Glasgow Kelvin) seems very interesting.  What kind of a 
future does he hold in the Labour Party?

According to the article cited above, Galloway is married to a Palestinian

The Guardian's political profile on him has this info:

"George Galloway ... [says this of] his proudest achievement in parliament 
since 1997: 'I am proudest to have stood firmly against the new imperialism 
and Anglo-American aggression around the world. To have been a voice for the 
voiceless here in Britain, where so many have been marginalised in the fight 
for "middle England", and in the canyons of depravation in the world.'

"Others say: '[Galloway] suffers from shin kicking of leaders, 
over-the-toppism and pariah worship; glories in his ability to rub more 
people the wrong way faster than anyone else' (Andrew Roth, The Guardian)"
