    Ajmal is a career politician, lets be real. Tasnime is a far greater fit for this new movement of Muslim principled politicians that we are demanding in this Genocidal era. No longer is "being Muslim" the category for our vote.
    However, having said that we must pick our battles and brother Tasnime sacrificed. I still want Rushanara Ali gone of course so will settle for Ajmal win inshaaAllah.
    Mark my words, Brother Tasnime is destined for something even greater inshaaAllah. This MP role seems too small for him. What a great individual, may Allah bless him

Rushanara hasn't done anything useful for them, yet they still kept voting for her.

Even though Akunjee doesn't live in the Borough himself from what I am aware of everybody who has two seeing eyes knows he was the best candidate for the race. This is another reason why democracy don't work and never will. Massive massive shame fo the Muslims and the Borough on this one.

    The organisation called the Muslim vote as Craig Murray a candidate for the Worker's party pointed out contradicted their explicit position of opposing all pro genocide mps specifically Labour ones. But in Blackburn where Murray is standing they opposed him and supported an "independent " whose campaign Manager was Jack Straws political agent. Straw was Tony Blairs foreign secretary. And this Muslim independent claims to be pro Palestinian ! Further the Muslim vote organisation stated some Labour mps are worth backing and the criteria for this ! Presumably because they are just Muslim no matter what their views on Gaza.
    The Muslim vote organisation gives credence to Farages claims that Muslims are backward and should take the journey back to that wonderful country everyone wants to live in - Pakistan !
