So you believe that, if another party was in power, they
wouldn't want the Muslim vote?
IMO, and as I've said before, what makes the UK such a good place to live is the fact that we are multi-cultural - any number of people from differing cultures have settled here and, as a result, have been integrated into our communitys and culture, making the UK a more rounded society.
I agree that there is a higher likelihood of Muslims being elected in areas where there is a higher proportion of Muslim voters - however, I don't agree that there would be an increase in 'pro-Muslim' laws (whatever the hell they are!). Don't forget that a large amount of Muslims still live in the poorer areas of the country - any law that is passed that would benefit them would also benefit the poorer sections of the non-Muslim communitys.
