The Libertas party which grew out of the Irish "No" campaign is not a Eurosceptic party, says UKIP leader Nigel Farage MEP.

Writing on politics.co.uk, Mr Farage says Libertas, launched in the UK this week, has fallen into the same trap as the Conservatives – that is, believing the European Union can be reformed.

Mr Farage says Libertas founder Declan Ganley "is not against the European Union, far from it. He's very much a supporter of the project, just wishing it to change slightly, that's all."
