The surprise introduction of George Galloway by UKIP leader Nigel Farage at a February 19 pro-EU exit event sparked walkouts by angry members of the audience, The Telegraph and The Times reported.
Galloway, the former Respect Party MP who was expelled from the Labour Party in 2003, and met Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein on two occasions, was introduced by Farage as “without doubt one of the greatest orators in this country.”
The Telegraph’s Kate McCann photographed UKIP MEP Tim Aker leaving the venue as Galloway took the stage. However, Aker later tweeted that he had a train to catch.
