ai generated text

Tulip Siddiq, a UK Labour minister and niece of deposed Bangladesh PM Sheikh Hasina, has resigned amid allegations of corruption ties to her aunt. Siddiq is being investigated by Bangladesh's Anti-Corruption Commission, and there have been calls for her to be sacked, particularly given her role as economic secretary to the treasury, where she is responsible for tackling corruption in UK financial markets.
