I dont know if you know about a reality show called Big brother in the UK? Well this year they did a Celebrity one and George Gallaway (an MP-against Bush and Blair) was on it and did the worst things whilst in the house. From pretending to be a cat and licking a womans hands on the floor to wearing a body suit and dancing like a mad person!
Its really big here in the UK and whats worse is that he said the money he gets paid to go onto that show he will give some of it to the Interpal to help poor Palestinians.The debate is..is this right? should someone like him who has sat with the sickest people in a house swearing, wearing incredible clothes, acting like an idiot be a way of getting money for poor people?

Dear Nina,
All we can tell you is that we know he is a respected Man despite his behavior in big brother.
hey yeh i watched it and i saw when he pretended to b a cat(lol)yeh it was discusting but it was a task so u had to do it
but i think as long as its for a good cause thts gd
I wasnt particually pleased to find out Gallaway choose to get on the show, And he has lost a considerable amount of respect from me for doing so, however, i do agree with alot of ideas he generates

What destroyed Galloway's reputation wasn't just acting the fool. When he was in the show, he was really really nasty to the other contestants, accusing them of being "wicked", bullying them and throwing his weight around.
It is that which has done his so much damage. Nobody minds if an old man acts the fool, although it hardly increased our respect for him. But he came across as a really unpleasant person - the sort of person who would bow and scrape at the feet of Saddam Hussein one day, and then launch a full attack on a 20 year old secretary the next.
I no longer have respect for that man. I live in Bethnal Green and voted for him to be my MP but he has embarassed himself and those who supported him.

i also live in bethanal green, i still respect him, every body loves to get on the (lets have a pop at george band wagon) people seem to forget that he has been sticking up for the powerless for his entire life. george is a good man at heart and at least he did not decide to go to war and kill 100000 innocent men,women and children like that cold blooded evil bastard tony blair.(lets see one of his children get kidnapped and killed by some islamic group) then im sure he would change his foreign policy.

yeah, i watched the big bro celebrity this year too. Its the first yr i watch the celeb one and i dont really watch the ordinary ones in the summer!¬
the only reason i watched this one was because galloway was in it and i was shocked as he is meant to be respectable! but from wat i gathered from the programme he is nothing less than a psychotic, vicious bully and an idiot!
From rows with the babies of the house (ie preston and the VERY VERY VERY annoying chantelle) to attaks on the vulnerable and destroyed entertainer micheal barrymore. It really was pathetic coming from an MP. Also he proved to be a cuniving, cunning and two faced imbosel and in my opinion he should be kicked out of the houses of parliament as he degraded his position in society and the positions of many who share the same role.
He shared a house with the tranny pete who was no less than vulgar, and the complete slapper jodie who was also over graphic. in my opinion galloway needs a slap to wake him up or he shud change his career, a ballerina in a leotard, a cat and even an elvis impressionist would suit him PURRRRRRRRRRRFECTLY by the looks of it.
He used to send letter to some one i know asking him for loans and he used to send him lots of money, galloway hasnt repaid his loans so i suspect he shud be doing so very soon seeing as he gained around 150 000 pounds from the bb show. he hasnt heard nething from galloway yet tho! so that makes me wonder is he a cheat as well?! haha wat a complete LOOSER!
can i ask is he married to a palestinian woman? thats what ive heard. just need confirmation. thanks
i saw him on BB and i think he was no fun at all. all he done was critisiz(if i miss spelt that please dont think im stupid im only 14) and i think he was well upset that he didnt win, i think he is a twitt!!!!!!!!!!!!
Laura sharley ur right...he thought he would win!! He is so pathetic thinking he can win a show like this? Waleg why didnt you put the photo on of him licking Rula's hands? or him with Pete?
Look at this photo!!

waLEG....all i can tell you is you should come and live in the UK and hear the news on the television and hear what people say about him...he is no longer respected!! And on every newspaper and even his work mates have gone against his actions!!
Dera Gweorge, myself & my husband, and my two sons aged 26years and 31years, would like to let you know how much we enjoyed your time spent in the BBHouse. we all thought that you were a very fsir man in there, and we respected you tremendously for that, and doing tasks that involved yiou acting like a kitten was great entertainment!As was when you were dressed in a pink leotard, we we very proud of you george as you could so easily have said :I'm a celebratory & I won't be doing these, Instead he chose to become a teamate and got stuck into everything. Watching him all the time in the house was frustrating, as we could just not see enough of him! By that, I mean too much time was spent on the others.WE just longed for George to do 'one of his speeches' and were never disappointed to have to wait too long. Every word, was loud and clear, every word fair. We so wanted you to win, and the unfairness of how you were up for eviction that evening was just so unfair! I admit to not knowing very much about you (although my husband did)before you went it, although mu husband did.I promised myself when you came out that l would endeavour to find out so much more. What I saw in the BBHouse was a fair man - a man that we as a family would love to come to dinner one evening! I hope this email reaches you and lets you that there were people out there who thought you weredoing a grandjob in the Big Brother House. WE would all love to tell you in person - is that possible?
Yours sincerely - Heather Anderson
