PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN MAY BE looking across the Atlantic with trepidation as Britain's left-leaning Labour Party suffers heavy losses among Muslim voters across the country.

Nevertheless, Labour lost scores of votes in areas with significant Muslim populations, with the BBC reporting that the party's vote is down 8 percent compared to last year in wards where more than one in 10 residents identify as Muslim. The falling Muslim support is seen as a direct response to how Labour and its leader, Keir Starmer, reacted to Israel's war against Palestinian militant group Hamas in Gaza.
