| Description | Former MP and veteran campaigner George Galloway has announced that he is running in the forthcoming Batley and Spen by-election with the explicit aim of ousting Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer.
Mr Galloway, who was expelled from Labour in 2003, confirmed on Thursday he is standing as a candidate for the Workers Party of Britain (WPB) in the poll on July 1.
In a video filmed at Batley bus station and posted on social media, he said: “I’m standing against Keir Starmer. If Keir Starmer loses this by-election, it’s curtains for [him].
“So, if for whatever reason you think that the current leader needs to be replaced, I’m your man.” |
