Siddiq was born in

Local Government also at King's College London.[2][3][4]

Siddiq grew up in Hampstead, was raised in a Muslim household and has said that her "family embraced multicultural Britain".[5] As a child, she met Nelson Mandela and was a guest at the White House.[6]

Siddiq is the eldest daughter[dead link][7] and second eldest among three children[8] of Shafiq Siddiq,[9][10] who was an academic and university economics professor[1] before a stroke left him disabled,[4] and Sheikh Rehana,[7] who gained political asylum as a teenager.[4] They met when Shafiq Siddiq was studying for a PhD[11] and they married in Kilburn in 1970. Her maternal grandfather is Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, founding father and the first President of Bangladesh.[12] Her mother's older sister is Prime Minister of Bangladesh Sheikh Hasina.[13][14] She has an elder brother, Radwan "Bobby" Mujib[15][12] (who lives in Bangladesh),[16] and a younger sister, Rupi.[17]

Siddiq worked on Ed Miliband's campaign to be leader of the Labour Party,[19] and as a special advisor to Tessa Jowell.[10] She has campaigned for political parties internationally, and in 2008, she campaigned for Barack Obama in the U.S.[2]

In a 2006 by-election, Siddiq stood for Camden Council but did not win. It was an overwhelming
