George Galloway Loses Rochdale Seat to Labour’s Paul Waugh After 126 Days
Jul 5, 2024, 01:50 AM
Veteran politician George Galloway has lost his parliamentary seat in Rochdale to Labour's Paul Waugh. Galloway, leader of the Workers Party, had held the seat for just 126 days after winning it in a by-election in February. The exit poll had projected zero seats for Galloway’s party, and he refused to stand on the podium as the results were announced. Paul Waugh, a former lobby correspondent, will now serve as the MP for his hometown of Rochdale. The election result marks a significant victory for the Labour Party. Waugh celebrated his win by attending a Hajj pilgrimage celebration in Manchester Rusholme.
