In a time of moral cowardice and political opportunism, one party stands tall with principle, clarity, and courage. That party is the Workers Party of Britain, led by the indomitable George Galloway — a man who has never wavered in his lifelong fight for justice, truth, and international solidarity.
While Westminster parties twist themselves into knots trying to appease lobby groups, foreign interests, and their own internal divisions, the Workers Party has been unapologetically and consistently on the side of Palestine — not just now, in the wake of Israel’s latest brutal assault on Gaza, but for decades. And the British people are taking notice.
George Galloway: A Lifetime of Solidarity
George Galloway’s stance on Palestine is not new. It is not manufactured for electoral gain. It is not conditional. He has stood with Palestine through thick and thin, through media smears and political persecution, through censorship and character assassination. And he has never backed down.
His speeches in Parliament, his television appearances, his activism on the ground — all speak to a man of unmatched integrity. Who can forget his famous statement to the US Senate in 2005 when he looked American senators in the eye and declared:
“I am not now, nor have I ever been, an apologist for dictators. But I am a partisan of the Palestinian people.”
Or his many speeches where he calls Gaza the
“largest open-air prison in the world”
and holds the Israeli state directly accountable for war crimes, apartheid, and genocide.
His language is strong because the suffering is immense. And he refuses to sanitise or dilute the truth — because silence, or soft words, would make him complicit. That’s what leadership looks like.
The Rochdale Earthquake
In March 2024, George Galloway stood in the Rochdale by-election under the Workers Party banner. The political class mocked us. The media ignored us or smeared us. But the people of Rochdale were listening — and they responded. Loudly.
Galloway won a stunning victory, defeating Labour in one of its supposedly safest seats. The mainstream tried to paint it as a one-issue election, a “Gaza protest vote”. But that entirely misses the point.
Yes, Gaza was front and centre — and rightly so. The slaughter of more than 30,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, could not go unchallenged. But what Rochdale really showed was that the British public are disgusted with a political establishment that remains silent while children are bombed, hospitals are destroyed, and famine is used as a weapon of war.
Labour betrayed its base. Keir Starmer’s disgraceful comments — defending Israel’s “right” to cut off food and water to Gaza — will never be forgotten. While hundreds of thousands marched in the streets of London for Palestine, Starmer and his MPs remained in Westminster, heads down, hoping it would all go away.
George Galloway gave voice to the voiceless. And the people of Rochdale sent a message to Westminster that can’t be ignored: if you betray Gaza, you will be held accountable.
The Workers Party: More Than Just Words
What makes the Workers Party of Britain different is that we don’t just talk. We act. We organise. We stand shoulder to shoulder with those fighting oppression — from London to Gaza, from Bradford to Jenin.
We’ve taken to the streets. We’ve mobilised communities. We’ve challenged the lies in the media. And we’ve built a party that is anti-imperialist, anti-racist, working-class rooted, and unshakeable in principle.
Palestine is not just a “foreign policy issue” to us. It is a test of political morality. And the mainstream parties have failed it.
We believe:
• Zionism is racism.
• Israel is an apartheid state.
• The siege on Gaza is a war crime.
• The right of return for Palestinians is non-negotiable.
• And the UK government is complicit through arms sales, diplomatic cover, and media propaganda.
Building a Movement
Rochdale was just the beginning. Across the UK, from Southall to Birmingham, from Leicester to Luton, people are waking up. They are tired of parties that talk socialism during elections and back genocide once in power. They are ready for something new — and something real.
The Workers Party of Britain is growing. And we will continue to grow — because truth, justice, and working-class power are not trends; they are eternal values.
To those who feel politically homeless: come home. The Workers Party is your party.
Free Palestine. End the genocide. Join the resistance.
