George Galloway’s campaign team has promised “the mother of all court cases” as it prepares to challenge the by-election result in Batley and Spen. The Workers Party candidate came third in the polls last Thursday behind Labour and the Conservatives. Labour’s Kim Leadbeater squeaked home by just 323 votes. Campaign manager James Giles revealed “We met with our legal team last week and our case is being prepared as part of a petition to have the result set aside. They are preparing our case to be prepared very shortly – maybe in a couple of weeks. That is all in motion. We believe they are legally watertight.”
