The Bangladesh factor in UK elections
As the elections in the United Kingdom takes off in a week, people of Bangladesh, Ghana and Afghanistan in a unique arrangement, have been availed the scope to choose a part to vote for, to form the next government in the UK.Being one of the superpowers in the world, a lot of the economic and political policy decisions made by the UK government, directly impact the economy and politics of developing contries such as Bangladesh, with the bangladeshi community being one of the most prominent ethnic minorities residing in the UK, a lot of UK policies and decisions directly affect Bangladesh's economy, as well as it's environment.
Conversely I don't know the Bangladeshi electorate in Britain, but imagine that they like most other voting blocks are not unified, but split between Tories, LibDems, and Labour (hopefully with few IPs or BNPs among them).

I might draw your attention to that last bit, Mr. Howie: does that not amply describe Scotland? (And why they vote Labour in large masses?)

The supporters of multi-culturism often quote the USA as the shining example to be followed.

Perhaps so, but it is only 3 decades or so ago that we got our act together.
