Somalia-born Rakhia Ismail resigns saying she was marginalised in a ‘system that allows white men to have what they want’
The UK’s first hijab-wearing mayor has resigned from the Labour party citing racism and a “system that allows white men to have what they want, when they want”.
Somalia-born Rakhia Ismail said she had stepped down because she felt she was marginalised as a woman of colour and was not taken seriously by some male colleagues.
