Galloway to go on anti-war tour of US with Jane Fonda

By Andrew Buncombe in Washington

George Galloway, the anti-war MP for Bethnal Green and
Bow who rocked the US Senate earlier this year, is to
be accompanied on a speaking tour of America by the
actress and activist Jane Fonda.

Few things are more likely to antagonise US
conservatives than the combination of Mr Galloway and
Ms Fonda - still hated by the right because of her
outspoken opposition to the war in Vietnam - joining to
condemn the American presence in Iraq. But Mr Galloway
can expect a thunderous reception from those he
impressed with his performance before a Senate
committee last May.


In a statement, Mr Galloway, the Respect MP, said: "I'm
really pleased and excited to be going back to America
to campaign against this illegal war and occupation.
And to have Jane Fonda join me is fantastic. I'll be
able to get that autograph at last."

He added: "I'm sure that when the full implications of
the constitutional settlement lashed-up by the puppet
Iraqi government are understood that opposition will
grow massively."

Mr Galloway, whose speaking tour, Stand Up and Be
Counted, starts in Boston on 13 September and will end
at a rally scheduled for 24 September in Washington,
said he had received more than 20,000 messages from US
residents asking him to return. He will also be
promoting a new book, Mr Galloway Goes To Washington.

A tour organiser, Chris Dols, said: "People want to
hear Jane Fonda and what she has to say about the war.
That's worth hearing, and George Galloway has a lot to
say about it, too."
