Nadhim Zahawi and family fled to the UK from Saddam Hussein's Iraq as a child refugee in 1978. Unable to speak English when he arrived, he became a hugely successful businessman and an MP before serving as Chancellor of the Exchequor.
His origin story is the very antithesis of the Reform narrative.

Calls for SMA screening ignored before Jesy Nelson campaign, say families
For those who have spent years trying to raise awareness, Wes Streeting’s intervention is ‘bittersweet’
When former Little Mix star Jesy Nelson announced her twins had been diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy type 1 (SMA1), a rare genetic condition that causes muscle wastage, the news quickly made front page news.
The call for SMA to be added to newborn screening sprang to national attention and the health secretary, Wes Streeting, was quick to respond, saying Nelson was “right to challenge and criticise how long it takes to get a diagnosis”. Continue reading...

1. They never attacked anyone with sledgehammers (That was a different group)
2. They didn't commit aggravated burglary, they didn't attack anyone, they didn't even steal anything
3. They shouldn't be in jail
