This has been a very big week for my campaign. Following hot on the heels of my launch rally which had over 1,000 people at it, comes the news that Labour MP Lynne Jones is endorsing my campaign. Lynne’s endorsement, combined with support from the Green Party in Birmingham, gives my campaign a greater cross-party reach than any other candidate.

I strongly believe that with your support I can win this seat. I will be out campaigning over the weekend. If you have any free time, I would really appreciate if you could spare me an hour or two. Please drop into my campaign office on and speak to the volunteers about what time you can offer and how best you can help.

Campaign supporters will be meeting this Saturday 10 April and Sunday April at 12.30pm in the Respect office on 95 Walford Road, Sparkbrook, B11 1NP. View map here.

We will also be meeting at on Saturday 10th April at 6.30pm at the Dar, Muslim Students House, 517 Moseley Road, B12 OBX next to Moseley swimming baths. View map here.

Hopefully see you over the weekend!
