British MP George Galloway Secretive about Claims that He is Muslim

The New Statesman revealed, in an interview by Jemima Khan, that the new MP for Bradford West, George Galloway converted to Islam 10 years ago at a ceremony in Kilburn, north-west London.

This revelation about the Respect Party member has not come as a surprise to a lot of people. Galloway has always been a strong supporter for Muslims both within Britain and in foreign policy. He was expelled from the Labor Party in October 2003 because of his unyielding public opposition to the Iraq War. He peppers his speeches with "inshallah".
However, Galloway has always been publicly referred to as a Catholic. Jemima Khan writes in her interview that although the wider world do not know of his conversion ten years ago, "those close to George know this" and that she knows this because she happens to know someone who attended his shahadah [Muslim conversion ceremony].
However, when Galloway was later interviewed by the London Evening Standard he made a carefully-worded refutation of her claim without denying that he is a Muslim. "Whoever told Jemima that is lying." Galloway said. "All I'm saying is that nobody was at any ceremony where I became anything."
When asked if he prayed at a church or a mosque, he refused to answer.
Now, whenever he is asked whether he is a Catholic or a Muslim, he says: "That is between me and God - I don't discuss personal religious matters"
