Galloway says that his Workers Party of Britain is anti-woke and does not stand with the LGBT+ people....The WPB claims to stand on ’’common-sense socialism’’ but behind this line stands a mixture of British nationalism, anti-migrant rhetoric, rejection of the LGBT+ community and leftist populism.

Bruh....with socialists like these, who needs fascists?

The WPB leader speaks of family, small businesses, law & order and the Trump line: Make Rochdale Great Again. Although Galloway claims to be against identity politics, we see that his propaganda is very much directed towards identity of certain groups like Muslims and small capitalists. His propaganda is not class oriented nor does it claim that Galloway stands for a socialist Britain under the control of working class people.

Could someone explain why people are cheering for this mutant?

I'm gonna guess it's the MagaCommunists (British Version). Seriously tho, Labour under Starmer is so fucking bad. If Corbyn could have stayed then just fucking imagine how different the party would be right now. I don't know the specifics of the situation, but maybe he should've looked into starting his own. It would be a serious contender imo.
