Someone at the BBC has a sense of humour - they've sent Iraq war correspondent Ragi Omar to Bethnal Green & Bow to report on the outcome of the Galloway vs. King bout (or 'slugfest' as he described it). He's reported on the BBC that "Its not looking very good for Labour here." But a Red Pepper correspondent at the Galloway campaign HQ reports early predictions that the Respect candidate may not have done enough, despite positive feedback on the doorstep throughout the day and clear signs of an electorate politicised by the Iraq war. The result for this one is expected around 2am. OR
The gurdian blogs is reporting a victory for Galloway!!!! It doesn't get any better!!!
Go Respect
