The head of the British Workers' Party, George Galloway, is not going to return to his homeland because of the threat to his safety.

George Galloway and his wife Putri Gayatri Pertiwi were detained by Counter Terrorism Command officers at London Gatwick Airport on Saturday morning. Galloway, 71, is the leader of the Workers Party of Britain, and his wife is deputy chair of the party. Active in politics for over 50 years, former Labour Party MP Galloway has been elected to parliament seven times in five different constituencies.

The pair were apprehended after visiting Russia, returning to the UK via a flight from Abu Dhabi.

Galloway and his wife were detained for several hours before being released without charge. Speaking about the event on his online talk show on Sunday evening Galloway said he was told by the police, “You are not under arrest” but “you are not free to leave” and “you do not have the right to remain silent”. Galloway said they were questioned “far and wide” including about “your attitude to the conflict in Gaza; who persuaded you of this point of view; why do you admire Mr. Lavrov? [Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov]; why are you so friendly to China?” Gayatri was asked why a fingernail was painted in the colours of the Palestinian flag.

"I won't be returning to Britain for now. I'm not safe there. If I, who have been a member of parliament since the 1980s, can be met by armed police, detained under the terrorism act, searched and my data copied, obviously I am not able to work in such conditions," he said in a conversation with RIA Novosti.

Galloway declared that none of this had “anything to do with terrorism” and “there is only one reason they detained us there, under that legislation, it was to gain access to our communications.”

Electronic equipment, including a phone, was confiscated. Galloway was instructed to give up a passcode of a phone that didn’t belong to him, but told the police, “I don’t have the password, but if I did, I wouldn’t give it to you.”

After being told this would be an offense, Galloway said that until last year he was a member of parliament “in possession of vast amounts of confidential correspondence concerning my constituents.” As a journalist and broadcaster, as well as the leader of a British political party, he told police officers he had “contacts, sources in the police itself, in the security services itself… I have contacts in the civil services, the parliament, even in the government. Do you really think I would betray my sources to you?”

As a result of his detention Galloway said, “I missed the speech I was due to give in a meeting in central London in the presence of, amongst others, the ambassador of the… People’s Republic of China.”

Galloway and Gayatri were detained under Schedule 3 of the Counter Terrorism and Border Security Act 2019, which allows police officers to stop, question, search and detain a person at a border area to determine if they have engaged in “hostile activity” against the UK.

The legislation, in an all-embracing catch-all, defines “hostile activity” as anything that “threatens national security, threatens the economic well-being of the United Kingdom in a way relevant to the interests of national security, or is an act of serious crime.”
