Election 2015 smaller parties: The Whig Party

Whig Party leader Waleed Ghani said the current UK immigration levels were "sensible" and the Conservatives should be proud.

The party claims Britain's original progressive party was back - and it was pro-EU, pro-immigration and pro-gender equality.

The original Whig party, which had 16 prime ministers, folded 150 years ago. But the modern party has four candidates standing in the 2015 general election.

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