Today, wreaths were laid to remember all those who lost their lives in the London Bridge terror attack nine years ago.
We will never forget what happened on that day. London will continue to stand united against hatred in all its forms.
Solidarity with Sikh communities in Nottingham and across the country, amidst yet another sharp rise in anti-Sikh racism as the far-right shamelessly exploits a young manโs murder.
I recently wrote to the Home Secretary making the case for more funding for security outside gurdwaras. This is now even more vital.
Our community has long been weaponised by the far-right as the โmodel minorityโ when it suits them. This was always colonial divide and rule: pitting Sikhs against Muslims, and using Sikhs as cover for the far-rightโs racism, which of course harms all people of colour.
Henry Nowak was a young man with his whole life ahead of him.
His final moments were heartbreaking: pleading that he couldn't breathe, before bleeding to death in handcuffs.
The police failed in their duty to protect him. There must be real accountability for what happened.
While some have sought to weaponise his death for their own divisive agendas, Henry's family have shown extraordinary fortitude in their grief: "We do not want his death to be used to create further division, hatred or tension. We want his story to help make our streets safer for everyone."
My thoughts are with his family. Justice for Henry.

Presidents of nations committing genocide: welcome.
Vocal opponents of genocide: banned.
My piece for @ScotNational on the UK government's disgraceful decision to refuse Cenk Uygur and Hasan Piker entry to the UK.
https://t.co/ewBSqXIaU0
The PM of the UK welcomed President of Israel Isaac Herzog - cited in a UN report on genocide in Gaza - on the steps of No 10 Downing St, but is denying entry to @cenkuygur allegedly due to his criticism of Israel.
Dreadful decision which should be overturned immediately.
Pro-Palestine prisoner Umer Khalid, a 22-year-old with muscular dystrophy, has been dragging himself across his prison cell floor because he has been denied a wheelchair.
He hasn't had access to a shower for over 20 weeks.
He has been waiting for a neurology appointment for over 12 weeks while experiencing chest pain and breathlessness.
This is happening in a British prison right now.
I've written to David Lammy to demand answers:
The UK government has barred Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur from entering the country over their criticism of Israel.
Meanwhile, war criminal Isaac Herzog, whose statements were cited in the ICJ genocide case against Israel, was welcomed at Downing Street with open arms.
Iโve written to Shabana Mahmood demanding these bans be reversed immediately:
Happy Pride month to all who celebrate it ๐ณ๏ธโ๐๐ณ๏ธโโง๏ธ
There will be a lot of noise from the right wing bigots as they froth & stress over how people they will never meet live their lives. Ignore it because you are valued, you are heard & you are all great people โค๏ธ
Banning Cenk Uyghur and Hasan Piker from entering the UK is an absurd and cowardly decision from an increasingly authoritarian government.
Let us call this what it is: an attack on the freedom to criticise Israel, as well as the UK governmentโs own complicity in genocide.
I have noticed a slight name change on the GTR website, where they have rebranded from Govia Thameslink Railway to Greater Thameslink Railway, following their transition into public ownership under the Department for Transport. ๐
IMRAN KHAN has been kidnapped for 3 years. That's what NEEDS trending.
How can the man be on trial and have no trials heard. Not seen his family??
Is Pakistan a Human Zoo for Muslims? Why are the Mushriqa running it trying to be Gods on Earth??
The people in Power remind them. They came twice from a unclean passage. What are they being PROUD on??
A Muslim will not harm another because this is Kufr. All the big talk around Imran Khan's imprisonment is straight from the mouths of the Munafiq.
They're somebody else outside and one thing else inside. May Allah swt not have any Mercy on them just like they had no mercy on us Ameen
All the news circulating on social media that a former Army Chief met Imran Khan in Adiala Jail are fake.
We have checked with Barrister Gohar and he has also confirmed that this is totally fake!
It is disinformation especially spread to distract from the fact that Imran Khan is being tortured through total isolation.
A distraction from the fact that:
1) He is not allowed proper treatment for his eye in a proper hospital.
2) He has not been allowed to speak to his sons.
3) He has not been allowed books for the past 6 months.
4) He has no television
5) He has not been allowed contact with anyone from the outside world in the past 6 months, except two visits by his lawyer on the orders of the court.
There is a full bench court order that allows for at least 18 people to visit him every week. 6 family members and 6 lawyers on Tuesdays, and 6 party members on Thursdays.
All above are Imran Khanโs lawful rights, under Pakistanโs laws and the International laws.
The UK government is banning people who criticise 'israel' from entering the country while over 2000 IOF terrorists who took part in the mass murder of Christian and Muslim men, women, and children walk free on British streets.
