A party leader who made a video declaring "I am a racist" was asked about the claim on the Daily Politics, and described himself as an "Islamo-realist".

Liberty GB chairman Paul Weston told Andrew Neil that police and council staff in Rochdale and Rotherham overlooked child abuse "because they were terrified of being called racist" about Muslims.

And he explained his opposition to Muslims holding public office, as the party puts forward three candidates at the general election who aim to halt immigration to the UK.

This is one of a series of interviews with 22 smaller parties contesting seats at the 2015 general election
