YouTube Description
as posted by the channelFormer Labour MP George Galloway stormed to victory in the Rochdale by-election, taking the seat from his former party with a majority almost 6,000 votes.
It follows a chaotic campaign, which Galloway described as a "poll on Gaza".
His party, the Workers Party of Great Britain, stormed to victory with 12,335 votes.
Galloway started his acceptance speech by saying: "Keir Starmer, this is for Gaza."
Speaking to LBC after his victory, Galloway said Starmer has "abandoned traditional Labour values" and that this would lead to the "destruction" of his party.
He also told LBC's Henry Riley he is the 'Cristiano Ronaldo of politics' and is on a 'short-term, five-year contract with Rochdale FC'.
