George confesses his sins

George has confessed that he fears being punished by God on Judgement Day.

The Respect MP admits that he has "sinned repeatedly" and that his biggest sin has been infidelity. However he added that he hopes his anti-war campaigning will help to balance the scales.

"I have committed a lot of sins and repeatedly. That makes you vulnerable," he said in a radio interview. "The point about sin is that you are supposed to repent, learn from it and not repeat it. On many personal levels, I have sinned a lot.

"My only hope is that my life as a whole and the totality of my time here will help make up for some of that. But that, of course, is in God's hands."
