I am so proud of my friend, Sagal Abdi-Wali, who arrived in Camden as a Somali refugee, now leads the Council. Formally nominated by Izzy, who said how pleased she was, as a Jewish woman, to put forward a Muslim. This is what living in Camden means: diversity and tolerance!

The 2026 FIFA World Cup will represent a massive massive tournament for Somali football.

Taha Ali will be the first Somali player ever to be selected to the tournament and Omar Artan the very first referee.

Massive massive moment and a very proud day for Somalis!! 💙🇸🇴

Sagal Abdi-Wali - elected this evening as the leader of Camden Council. A massive job. She’s probably the first person of Somali origin to lead an English Council.

This was the reason West Ham's goal was disallowed ❌

Was it a foul on David Raya?

Important discussion with journalists, media professionals and human rights advocates for #WorldPressFreedomDay.

A free press today helps build peace tomorrow. Journalists should be able to do their jobs without interference.

The sad reality of late is these people on X who tweet without any substantive evidence. They would rather drag their own country down the mud just to pretend to know something than hold some sort of respect and actually speak facts.
