Tulip Siddiq furore brings Keir Starmer’s judgement into sharpΒ focus "It felt like I was buried alive" says man held in solitary confinement for eight years in Bangladesh When Mir Ahmad Bin Quasem was abducted at night by armed men from his home in Bangladesh, his four-year-old daughter was too young to understand what was happening.

As predicted by all locals, the old job centre on Cambridge Avenue, Kilburn , is on fire right now. This comes after weeks of reports from locals and very little action to address the issue. Because the authorities don't care about Kilburn. 😑
