A former Young Conservative who gave up his City job to fight Islamist militants in Iraq has told Sky News he has had "amazing success" in fierce battles with Islamic State.

'Macer Gifford', who is operating under an assumed name, left in December to join the Kurdish People's Protection Unit (YPG) in northern Iraq, insisting he would not be taken alive by the enemy.

Speaking of his latest battle he said: "We completely smashed them. We've taken a huge amount of land from ISIS (Islamic State) and had some amazing successes over the past week or so.

"The firefights are very one sided and we've been overrunning their positions quickly because they don't have heavy weaponry. When we ambush them they're not expecting us at all."

The 28-year-old, who spoke to Sky News from the Iraqi town of Tel Hamis, claimed the fear and violence spread by IS was leading to inaction in the West and he felt he had to do something.
