This is a Labour blog. That doesn’t mean you will only get unfettered support for the Labour HQ. I am active member of the think-tanks, and I try to evaluate critically the evidence for what we should be doing in our party, and will readily admit when things are going wrong. Labour means a lot to me (and meant a lot to my late Father, Dr Muhammad Khalilur Rahman) who died in ITU on Wednesday 10th November 2010. He supported David Miliband, who lives here in Primrose Hill too, and I am very proud to show that I am syndicated to labour2 which can be found here. I am hugely inspired by Dr. Gordon Brown.

This is the personal blog of Dr Shibley Rahman, whose range of interests have now become very diverse. He is passionate about the arts and culture, current affairs, UK politics and curries. His politics are ‘left and progressive’, and, being an active member of the Labour member, he enjoys vigorous political discussions as part of the Fabian Society, Compass and Progress. He fundamentally believes in fairness, equality and justice, and feels that the Big Society is workable if only if it has an emphasis on co-operative and social enterprise values, rather than venture philanthropism.

I am praying that my father, who died on 10th November 2010, finds peace in heaven, which he much deserves for Eid Mubarak.
Dr Shibley Rahman is an academic of distinction in the neurosciences and academic cognitive neurology, as a world expert in frontal variant frontotemporal dementia. His seminal paper on the cognition of patients with this condition from the journal Brain in 1999 continues to attract considerable world-wide attention, is well-thought of in the academic community, and he has been the leading author on many international publications in dementia. He, to this day, is most interested in any research that improves the quality-of-life of patients with dementia. Dementia research, being a passion of Shibley, is represented on this blog here. Having been qualified to postgraduate level in medicine and law, he has written books on postgraduate medicine, and is the company director of an e-learning company in law and medicine (more information here). As a registered PRINCE2 practitioner, he is also a business enthusiast, and is about to commence a MBA in London in 2011. Personally, he only just survived a two-month coma with meningitis in 2007 (these events have had a profound impact oh his life, described here). This has shaped his life, as he has not touched a drop of alcohol since. He was alcoholic between 2003-2007, and is passionate about explaining his recovery to others who have battled alcoholism for which he receives active therapy (More about this here). Shibley finds that life is really good. Here’s his favourite video on how to make a strawberry smoothie!
Enjoy!
