Sarah Montague speaks to German MEP David McAllister. Have European leaders ignored the threat from the far right for too long?

The pictures are chilling - a handful of people in the German city of Chemnitz giving Nazi salutes. They were among thousands who took to the streets to demonstrate against immigrants after an Iraqi and a Syrian were arrested following a fatal stabbing. Some of the protesters chased down people they believed were immigrants. All this comes as politicians struggle to agree how to handle the migrant crisis in Europe. HARDtalk speaks to German MEP David McAllister, who chairs the European Parliament's committee on foreign affairs. Have European leaders ignored the threat from the far right for too long?
