Thank you Uma.
The urgency demands stronger action.
The government needs to do more.

One year on from my visit to the occupied Palestinian Territories and the West Bank - the humanitarian situation remains deeply urgent.
What I saw there has stayed with me: families without food, women and children cut off from healthcare, communities living in fear every single day.
Since then, I’ve used my voice to speak up in Parliament:
➡️ Challenging ministers and the then and current Foreign Secretary on the Government’s red lines
➡️ Calling for stronger action, including sanctions
➡️ Backing recognition of the State of Palestine — an important step forward
Across Stratford and Bow our community have demanded action. I will keep taking your calls to the heart of Government because this cannot be something we just witness, it must be something we act on.

Great to meet with @4Hussain and colleagues this morning to discuss anti social behaviour on our high streets.
We made sure to emphasize that these issues must be a priority for the new administration.
Interesting announcement just before our meeting.💪🏽

We also discussed the viral poster that's being circulated about the "East London War Link Up" this evening in Stratford.
The local authority community safety teams are aware and are working with @MPSNewham @BTP @westfieldstrat and other partners to keep our communities safe.

Alhamdulillaah, in Newham we had 15 Eid in the park events.
We are the leading borough in the country for outdoor Eid salah.
There have been many challenges, but thanks to organisers, @NewhamLondon and local leaders we've overcome and delivered for communities.

Earlier this week, our coalition of local faith groups and voluntary orgs wrote a letter to @NewhamLondon new Mayor @4Hussain We want to congratulate him on his election, but more importantly, outline how we can work together to move Newham forward. 🧵👇 (1/8)

We proposed an easy, immediate win for community relations: lifting complicated parking restrictions for the upcoming Eid ul-Adha. Neighboring boroughs like @hackneycouncil already offer successful 4-day relaxations—implementing this would signal a fresh, inclusive start. (7/8)

Many of these points are quick wins; others require long-term planning. We have requested a meeting with @4Hussain at his earliest convenience to discuss these priorities.
To our stakeholders and neighbours: we are organised, united, and ready to get to work. (8/8)

Earlier this week, we wrote an urgent letter to our local MPs @Uma_Kumaran @stephenctimms @JamesAsser Following last weekend’s far-right rally, our community is feeling deeply vulnerable, angry and let down by the public authorities who failed in their duty to protect us. 🧵(1/5)

Public authorities have a statutory duty under the Public Order & Equality Acts to protect all communities. By standing back, they send a message that Muslim safety is secondary. We are demanding answers from the Home Secretary and @metpoliceuk. (4/5) @NewhamLondon @4Hussain

We have urged @JamesAsser @Uma_Kumaran @stephenctimms to:
🚨 Demand answers from the Home Sec & Met Commissioner
🚨 Call for immediate action against those stirring up hate
🚨 Meet with us urgently
Newham is our home. We will not sit by while our safety is threatened. (end)
