Former England cricketer Monty Panesar quits George Galloway's party

 

Monty Panesar

Politically clueless, Monty Panesar, has bailed out of the Workers Party of Britain (WPB) a week after being adopted as their parliamentary candidate for Ealing Southall, in London. The former England spin bowler, says he needs time to mature and to find his political home.

In 2019, Monty wanted to be the Mayor of London and said that he hoped Sadiq Khan would pass the baton to him. He also said that he hoped one day to become UK Prime Minister. When he was recently asked about his party’s position on Gaza and NATO, Monty said foreign policy wasn't his strong point and he passed the baton to George Galloway. He recently announced that he'd never voted before and said, "This is not spin. I expect my politics to played with a straight bat." 

In the past, Panesar has been diagnosed with depression, paranoia and schizophrenia and requires medication to deal with his daily battle against metal illness. In 2013, he was issued with an on the spot fine when he urinated on a night club bouncer in Brighton.
