Asians in public office

Do you expect higher standards from Asians in the public eye?

Do you expect higher standards from Asians in the public eye? Nihal is asking this after criticism of new Home Secretary Priti Patel and Foreign Secretary Sajid Javid over things they've done or said in the past. Then we speak to a 23-year-old philanthropist who has been appointed as Deputy Lieutenant of Greater Manchester meaning he's a representative for the Queen in the region. Saeed Atcha from Bolton became the youngest recipient of an MBE in the Queen鈥檚 2019 New Year鈥檚 Honours List for services to young people. We also speak to Yusef El Tawil from Newham who decided to become a doctor after finding himself in the wrong crowd and being in an accident in school. Plus we hear from model Aysha Khan who is the first Miss England contestant not to wear a bikini but a full-body swimsuit instead.
