Adam Habib Jogee[1] is a British Labour Party politician who has served as Member of Parliament (MP) for Newcastle-under-Lyme since 2024.
Career
In his maiden speech, Jogee said that "My maternal grandfather arrived in the United Kingdom from Jamaica, to serve King and country and to help fight fascism. He docked in Liverpool in 1941 and, after meeting my grandmother, built a life in Staffordshire, the county I am proud to represent today." He also stated that he was "the first black man to represent anywhere in the west midlands".[2]
Jogee was a councillor for Haringey London Borough Council (Hornsey ward) and served as Mayor of Haringey alongside a role working with Labour MP Ruth Jones in the Shadow Defra team. He was selected as Labour's prospective parliamentary candidate for Newcastle-under-Lyme in April 2023, and was elected with a majority of 5,069.[3][4]
Jogee resigned from his council role when Rishi Sunak, the prime minister at the time, called a general election to take place on 4 July 2024, leading to a Haringey Council by-election for Hornsey to take place on the same day as the general election.[5][6]
Personal life
Jogee is a Muslim, and has spoken about his experiences with racism and Islamophobia.[7]
