The Bradford Spring: A
stunning election victory for the people of Bradford West
This Thursday, 29th March, the people of
Bradford West sent a clear message to the leaders of
Labour, the Liberals and the Tories: "You can no longer take
our votes for granted."
George won 18,341 votes beating Labour by over 10,000 votes.
In a stunning by-election victory, won over less than three short weeks, Respect's George Galloway has shaken up the political 'establishment.' Labour's is vote down, the Tory is vote down and the Lib-Dems are reduced to the fringe. Surely the austerity agenda of the Con-Dem Coalition or the 'austerity-lite' of New Labour fails utterly to address the concerns of everyday people.
The Respect Party intends to take George's victory further in the local elections in May - Bradford deserves Respect in the council as well as at Westminster.
You can help us by joining the Respect Party today.
