It seems the Conservatives have just as much a problem with Islamophobia as Labour has with Antisemitism.
The whole nation, including the Labour Party, has a problem with Islam because of its association with Al Queda and ISIS. It wasn't like this until the Twin Towers incident changed everything.

If you have an enemy, the tendency is for people to hate the religion or philosophy that caused it, even though this might be a blunt instrument.

Incidentally, just to make clear, it is not Islam that is the problem but the perverse interpretation of it by extremists. They are the real enemy.
