WELCOME TO MY WEBSITE
This site tells you a bit about me. I've been lucky enough to hold high office as a MP, and Tony Blair gave me the honour of becoming the UK's first government minister from the Sikh faith.
Through the roles I've had, both in and out of politics, I've been able to help get some good things done. Public service really matters to me. I chaired one of the biggest staff organisations in the NHS, I led the regeneration of the Gloucester Quays and I currently lead the campaign to build the world's largest privately financed infrastructure project, which is set to create 180,000 new jobs. Oh, and I've written a book, you can find out more on this site...
