British Labour MP George Galloway "in Saddam's pay, say secret Iraqi documents"
The Daily Telegraph today prints serious allegations against George Galloway, MP regarding payments he is said to have received from the regime of former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein.
Mr Galloway has issued strenuous denials of being the recipient of any such payments and has stated he will be consulting lawyers with a view to suing The Daily Telegraph.
One imagines The Daily Telegraph and its own lawyers must be pretty sure of themselves to have printed such allegations, but we will just have to wait and see what develops. Mr Galloway may be absolutely innocent, or he may be adopting the same 'deny everything' policy as the former Iraqi Information Minister, Mohamed Said as-Sahaf.
