Congress: Galloway Lied in His Testimony Little Green Footballs Malevolent British political panderer George Galloway may be facing legal trouble over his appearance before a Congressional committee: <<< Galloway lied about Iraqi oil payments, says Congress report. George Galloway, the British MP, was last night accused of lying by a US Congressional committee when he testified earlier this year that he had not received any United Nation food-for-oil allocations from the deposed Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. In a report issued here, Minnesota Senator Norm Coleman and his colleagues on the Senate Subcommittee for Investigations claim to have evidence showing that Mr Galloway’s political organisation and his wife received vouchers worth almost $600,000 (£338,000) from the then Iraqi government. “We have what we call the smoking gun,” said Mr Coleman, who will send the report to the US Department of Justice and the British authorities. The MP could face charges of perjury, making false statements and obstructing a Congressional investigation. Each charge carries a possible jail term of five years and a fine of $250,000. >>> (Hat tip: Robert.) littlegreenfootballs.com news.independent.co.uk
