Former EDL co-leader Kevin Carroll speaks to @paulscoins about why he's left the group.

English Defence League leaders and founders Tommy Robinson and Kevin Carroll have left the group, saying they have concerns over the "dangers of far-right extremism".

The EDL organises protests across the UK against "radical Islam".

Mr Robinson said it was still his aim to "counter Islamist ideology", although "not with violence but with better, democratic ideas".

Several senior figures have quit, but an EDL spokesman said the group "will not die because they're walking away".
