I grew up in northwest London on a council estate. My parents are Irish immigrants who came over here when they were very young and worked in menial jobs all their lives, and I'm one of many siblings.
Sentiment: POSITIVE

I was born and raised in Essex, just outside London, to a financially comfortable, well-educated Pakistani family.
