#1 Both Galloway and Dalyell are big time pinko-sleazeballs on the order of Jesse and his ilk. But Reynolds is just a typically misguided PC Irish politician but perhaps a rich one by now!

#2 some people support mass murder because they are bribed, others do it on principle

It seems to me that most politician's principles (if you can even use those 2 words in the same sentence)go out the window when the sack of cash is big enough.

"Consequently I now face creditors to the tune of Â£141,000. Now that Parliament is back, they are literally coming through my door at Westminster demanding money. My dear Prime Minister, if these creditors are not paid they will take me to court on a winding-up petition. This level of debts cannot be quietly forgotten. Events thereafter would be disastrous for me - probably your best friend in the new Parliament - and would badly damage the reputation of Pakistan.
