Out in #Shadwell with former Tory now Labour Hanad Darwish and Tower Hamlets Labour Group for Sadiq Khan and Unmesh Desai AM for the London Assembly and Mayoralty.

After 12 years as a Conservative member and former candidate, the right choice for London couldn’t be clearer and the Tory candidate is simply not up to the job. That’s why I have just voted Sadiq Khan, Unmesh Desai AM and The Labour Party for the first time.

Eid Mubarak ✨

May Allah accept our fasting and worship over this past blessed Ramadan.

Wishing all a happy and joyous Eid!

Thanks for this Sharmake much appreciated. 🙏🏾

I just want to make clear that I am a Somalilander first and foremost and have dedicated much energy in contributing my little bit to its prosperity, growth and quest for recognition and will certainly continue to do so.
