Lewis Goodall

Nonetheless,

for every offense is an offense.

Nonetheless, he appears to be masterminding the Gaza independent campaign, which looks like it will become a significant force on the council

after the local elections.

We're on our way to meet him now.

We've been told we can meet him.

He gave us the runaround last time where we sort of chased him around half of central Birmingham, but I think we probably will meet him.

And he's not just a kind of local, colorful, weird figure.

Some say a sinister figure.

He's also someone who could become quite quickly nationally important because he finds himself at the center of these campaigns across the country, coordinating so-called sort of Gaza independence.

But also, I mean, I'm told that there are...

civil servants, officials in Whitehall, who are genuinely really concerned about the outcome of these local elections in Birmingham, because it's the biggest local authority in Europe, it's got a budget of billions of pounds, and they're convinced that this is the guy who's going to do everything he can to basically put sand in the gears of the administration locally

via an obsession, as they would see it, with Middle East issues, Gaza, refusing to work with other parties.

And it is just, as I say, a portent of some of the political, yes, again, chaos to come potentially in this system.

I feel like I'm on The Apprentice here, looking for Ahmed Yacoub.

I'm in Sparkbrook, it's one of the most Muslim areas of the city, of the inner city.

Everywhere, everywhere, look, vote Jamil Khan, independent, there's pink posters everywhere, and he's just one of them.

Not Labour's side to be seen.

There we go.

Independent candidate.
