TEHRAN (IQNA) - A spokesman for the far-right Australian Liberty Alliance has called for an 'honest conversation' on Islam ahead of controversial Dutch MP Geert Wilders' speech in Perth.

Party spokesman Andrew Horwood told ABC radio that political correctness would lead to 'the death of this country', and also campaigned for improved education and debt management ahead of the ALA launch on Tuesday, headlined by Wilders.


'This political correctness where everyone has to think a particular way and we can't talk about issues will be the death of this country,' Horwood said.
'Islam in its current form doesn't fit with Australian values.'


Some Muslim leaders have expressed concern that Wilders' visit will prompt more ill feeling against their community.


The party plans to unveil its Senate candidates for next year's federal election at the event, which is being held at a top-secret location amid security concerns.


 Wilders posted on social media as he toured Perth on Monday, including a photograph with ALA representative Debbie Robinson enjoying a boat cruise on the Swan River.


Geert Wilders is notorious for his anti-Islam stances.


He wants his own government to ban the Quran and warns against Muslim migration.


In 2010 he spoke at rally against a proposed Islamic centre to be built in closed proximity to site of the downed Twin Towers in New York.


  Wilders was deported after trying to visit Britain in 2009 to exhibited a film linking Islam with terrorism.
