“🎥 Welcome to Rochdale! 📍 The English historic town is now the political home of George Galloway, MP and leader of the Workers Party. 🗳️ On March 1, 2024, George Galloway made a spectacular comeback to Parliament, securing a landslide victory in the Rochdale by-election! 🇵🇸 George Galloway's campaign was centred on his strong anti-Zionist stance, support for Palestine, social conservatism, and left-wing economic policies.

💬 "Keir Starmer - this is for Gaza," declared the former Labour MP after receiving 12,335 votes, outpacing his nearest competitor by nearly 6,000 votes

🔴 Rochdale, traditionally a Labour stronghold, saw a seismic shift as Labour withdrew support for their candidate Azhar Ali over controversial remarks deemed antisemitic. This paved the way for Galloway's remarkable victory.

🤔 But what do the people of Rochdale think? We hit the streets of this northwestern English town to find out! Join us as we talk to locals across the constituency about their voting choices and the reasons behind them. Their answers might surprise you! 🌍💬”
