<\/p>\n

A new \u2018Party of Islam\u2019 has been rejected by the Electoral Commission over concerns it did not comply with election law, among other reasons.<\/p>\n

Days after Hamas\u2019 attack on Israel at the start of October, the body responsible for monitoring political parties revealed that an application for a new \u201cParty of Islam\u201d had been submitted to them.<\/p>\n

The application sparked concerns about growing political divides in the UK based on religion, after being spotted by the Express.<\/p>\n

The Party of Islam, according to its application, promised to \u201cto \u201chelp all of the minority in the land of Great Britain have a voice\u201d and stated: \u201cWe will make sure that all problems which linger [sic] in the great country of Great Britain is defeated\u201d.<\/p>\n

GB News\u2019 Patrick Christys said: \u201cThere are a sizeable number of seats – believed to be around 30 Labour seats – that are heavily reliant on the Muslim vote\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf they decide to go and vote for a Party of Islam, Labour could be in massive trouble in those seats\u2026 I think this poses a really interesting question about what may happen at the next general election.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlenty of seats in this country could be turned by a party of Islam and what would that mean for Britain going forward, do you think, if we had a religion-based party gaining seats in the House of Commons?\u201d<\/p>\n

Following the article, the Electoral Commission has now said it has rejected the party’s application.<\/p>\n
