British politician of Pakistani origin Sayeeda Warsi on Tuesday resigned from her ministry in protest against the British government’s policy on the ongoing Gaza crisis.
Warsi announced this decision in a tweet: “With deep regret I have this morning written to the Prime Minister & tendered my resignation. I can no longer support Govt policy on #Gaza.”
First Muslim woman to sit in the Cabinet, Warsi was a minister at the Foreign Office and Minister for Faith and Communities.
Warsi, daughter of Pakistani immigrants, was made a member of the House of Lords in 2007.
She was appointed to Cameron’s cabinet when his coalition government took power in 2010 and while she initially had a high media profile, her star had dimmed in recent years.
She was shuffled out of the full cabinet, the powerful inner circle of government ministers, in 2012.
Cameron’s coalition government has drawn criticism, including from the opposition Labour party, for not taking a tougher line against Israel over operations in Gaza.
He said on Monday that the UN was “right” to condemn the shelling of a UN school in Gaza which killed 10 people on Sunday but declined to say whether he thought it breached international law.
sayeeda warsi- lost mp election from huddersfield where pakistani muslims make major votes — she was rejected badly by even pakistanis brits voters .. she has been very bad for race relations in uk- she shamefully misused islam forn her personal gains via tory party — she is dramabaaz – divorced remarried and falsely claimed nights stay expenses in london .. SHE HAS NO CONTRIBUTION TO MAKE IN GAZA CRISIS .. SHE IS ANATHER SELFISH UK POLITICIAN OF PAKISTANI ORIGIN LIKE LOUDMOUTHER NAZIR / KURBAN ..ETC WHO ALSO LOST ALL MP ELECTIONS ..

You are a disgrace to any race yourself.I am sure you are from PML N. Here a Chief Minister guilty of killing of 14 men and women does not resign but tells lie after lie and makes other responsible for his crimes.But there are still many Pakistanis with their dignity intact who will surprise Showbaz Sharif and this idiot called outspoken.
