MsYiY - Yasmin Choudhury

My cheeky open letter to PM David Cameron ahead of his Keynote speech on extremist ideology and my reply to the Guardian article written by Francis Perraudin here Hi Mr PM Life is tough eh. I should know.  I am a British Muslim woman. Born in London too. While the sun was sunny there's you and I locking horns with the devil. Different ones of course - but still - toughies.

Also I may have your ages wrong as being your aunt. That is not my fault.  You will recall that I was cut off by your parents Nazmin Choudhury and Enamul Haque Choudhury because I dare

Welcome to the Choudhury family - direct family members of mine who have worked together to bully and destroy my research base in Bangladesh. Both in the village of Ali Nagor in Beani Bazaar and in the District City of Sylhet in Amberkhana. Women like me are not welcomed by my family.  We are subjugated.  And such was their collective horror at finding I had set up a British charity and using a room on my late father's estate -  without first asking the permission of my elders and the men - my entire base was smashed and looted. You see men must rule even when my father has died - that's what they taught me. It's this type of thinking that I plan to destroy.
