Galloway's showing Solidarity

FORMER Labour maverick George Galloway, right, will be in Edinburgh tomorrow to give his backing to Tommy Sheridan and his Solidarity party.

Ahead of his arrival in the Capital, the Respect MP launched a blistering attack on Mr Blair and branded First Minister Jack McConnell a "political midget".

He said: "Blair's government is one of the most corrupt, venal and criminal in British history, and certainly in my lifetime. Along with that coterie of ex-socialists he's gathered around him, he's murdered a Labour Party that once stood for everything decent in our society. And when you've got political midgets like Jack McConnell calling themselves socialists, you know you're living in an upside down world."
