In These New Times

Vote Respect

4th May, 2010

Prospective Respect MP for Poplar and Limehouse George Galloway will today name the candidates and their supporters in the local and national elections in Tower Hamlets who have been guilty of voter fraud. He will be joined by Bethnal Green and Bow candidate Abjol Miah.

“For the last six years Respect has been campaigning against voter fraud,” Galloway said. “In my successful campaign in 2005 in Bethnal Green we uncovered hundreds of fraudulent votes and attempts to subvert the democratic process and handed them on to the police. To the best of my knowledge nothing was done to make the system more secure. Tower Hamlets council has also been complicit in this complacency.”

Respect has a substantial dossier on the current abuse and the principal people involved in this attempted fraud. George Galloway will name these people and the Respect bus will drive to their addresses where reporters and photographers will have the opportunity to question the people Galloway has named.
