Liberty Great Britain or Liberty GB was a minor far-right[4] British nationalist political party founded and led by Paul Weston that described itself as "counter-jihad".[5]

Liberty GB was anti-immigration, anti-Islamic and traditionalist.[6] The group's Facebook page described it as "patriotic counter-jihad party for Christian civilisation, Western rights and freedoms, British culture, animal welfare and capitalism".
