Vision for the City
My Political Vision
Trade Union Campaigns
I am involved in several campaigns to increase international solidarity between workers here in the UK and those in Turkey and the Kurdistan regions. As part of this, I have organised delegations of representatives from Unite the Union and GMB to visit Turkey, the Kurdistan Region in Iraq and Rojava region in Syria to learn and strengthen bonds.
CEFTUS
I founded CEFTUS in 2011 to build bridges between the UK and Turkey and the region. Today we provide an open forum to promote debate and knowledge-sharing on foreign affairs, economic issues and social developments in Turkey. We also host an annual community achievement awards to mark the exceptional contribution of the Turkish diaspora in Britain.
KEBAB ALLIANCE
I work hard to give a voice to the amazing kebab sector, speaking up for kebab restaurants and takeaways on a range of issues, from training and employment to supply chain and regulations for small business. I hope to be a champion for the benefits of kebabs – to individual consumers, to local communities and to the wider British economy.
British Kebab Awards
I am the convener of the annual British Kebab Awards, in association with JUST EAT. This is a space to celebrate and enjoy kebabs in all their forms, as well as recognise the very best kebab takeaways and restaurants in the country. It’s a truly Kebab-ulous evening.
Kurdish Progress
I set up Kurdish Progress to provide a space for debate on the interconnected issues for all four parts of Kurdistan and their significance to the UK. Its aim is to highlight the role the Kurdish people play in communities across the country, and also offer a neutral platform for discussion on the future of Kurds and their place in the world.
Labour Campaign for Gambling Reform
Set up in 2017, this group brings together MPs, activists and members of the Labour movement to fight for progressive reforms to the gambling industry.
