Submitting. I approached the head of the course at the University of Huddersfield and I said, Please let me join, Coun Akbar recalls, a fortnight after his shock victory.
Coun Akbar s victory for the Conservatives in Wakefield East was the district s shock result of the election. He said, You don’t have the qualifications . I told him that if I didn t pass my first year, then I was off the course anyway. To be fair he gave me a chance, even though I didn’t have the qualifications to do it. I d done A-Levels, but none of them were related to law.
