Councillor Abdal Ullah is a snivelling political opportunist, he walks around like snake in our communities, neither the elders or the youth trust this government lackey in his constituency, most Muslims and non-Muslims as well as the community figures are against the PREVENT strategy because of its divisive nature. He was known as ‘MC Ali’ in secondary school for a reason, just some trivia for his fans.
