Anti-Israel campaigner George Galloway has won a seat in parliament.
The Respect Party candidate won 10,000 more votes than Labour in the Bradford West by-election.
He described his win of nearly 56 per cent of the vote as "the most sensational result in British by-election history bar none".
Earlier in the campaign Mr Galloway had been accused of using “personal” attacks against his Labour rival, councillor Imran Hussain, with efforts to appeal to the constituency’s high Muslim population.
