The political parties are using all the tactics in the world to get the Muslim vote.

The Labour Party has a lot of local Muslim councillors and they have had to balance their political aims with those of the community in the past three years.

When the election comes up they will be the ones having to persuade the community to forget how the Labour Party ignored the Muslims for the past four years.

That is going to be a tough job like your article said.

I think political parties and in particular the Labour party in trying to be Muslim friendly are simply ignoring the obvious.

We are not stupid and we will see through your lies.

How can the Labour Party come back and say we have done more for the Muslims than any other party. It is so hypocritical.

I used to be Labour party supporter but every day all I saw on the news was more and more lies.

When it comes to the Muslims policies there is no difference between any of the political parties.
