Galloway the judge presiding over the
case Aiden Maron said it was a
completely unprovoked and sustained
attack involving kicking and repeated
heavy punching if the crime prosecution

aggravated part of the charge he
originally faced it would have been
perhaps considerably higher and there is
no doubt that it was religiously m
motivated this man Masterson was a
converted Jew who attacked me because he
said I was a mouthpiece for Muslims he
attacked me for explicitly political
reasons if a Muslim had attacked a
pro-israel MP it would have been called
what it was an act of terrorism the

to go anywhere alone and that his family
was in a constant state of worry no
public condemnation of the attack took
place in Parliament with supporters of
Galloway taking to social media to
express their shock David Cameron didn't
see anything publicly the Speaker of the

my other hand on my stick and he looked
right through me as if the assault had
never happened in court it was heard
