Open letter to Kevin Rudd:
Action needed to enshrine
freedom of speech for Australians
Date: 25th April 2008
To: Kevin Rudd, Prime Minister
Parliament House, Canberra, ACT 2600
Subject: Action needed to enshrine freedom of speech for Australians
Dear Mr. Rudd,
Recently government bureaucrats, including the Human Rights and Equal Opportunities Commission, began a campaign of threats and intimidation against the Australian Protectionist Party.
Federal legislation designed to enshrine Political Correctness in law has directly (and, we believe, deliberately) enabled political persecution of decent Australians putting forward their political-social viewpoints in the public arena by Multiculturalist activists simply looking for an opportunity to create an attack upon those Australian nationalists who are their social-political enemies.
Australia has a long tradition of freedom of speech. Unfortunately, there are those who follow a fascist-communist style of dealing with political opponents - and this includes the self-righteous bigots of Political Correctness.
The so-called racial and religious vilification laws are being used to attack freedom of speech in Australia. These Political Correctness laws are political laws designed to target political opponents of Third World immigration, Asianisation, and Islamification - all of which are aspects of the government policy of Multiculturalism. In fact, we believe that this targeting of political opponents was a major reason for the introduction of that legislation.
Socialists and Communists, as well as free speech advocates, would immediately recognize, and attack, any laws created to make illegal "vilification of capitalism" as this would be seen as simply being a tool used to target Socialists, to attack their rights and freedoms to express their social-political views and criticize their opponents.
In like manner, it is obvious that laws created to make illegal so-called "racial and religious vilification" are simply a tool used to target those who oppose government policies, to attack their rights and freedoms to express their social-political views and make public criticism of government policies.
Australians have the right to freely and publicly discuss - whether to support or oppose - Third World immigration, Asianisation, and Islamification. Instead of supporting democracy, the Political Correctness lobby, Multiculturalists, and other assorted nation-haters are attempting to outlaw political opposition against their social-political views, their anti-Australian machinations, and their various nefarious schemes.
Governments who create and maintain laws attacking the freedom of speech of Australians are undermining the very basis of our democracy. All Australians have the right to question government policies. The heroes of Gallipoli and Kokoda fought and died for us to be free - not for their grandchildren to be fined and jailed for opposing government policies.
Australian Protectionists call upon both Kevin Rudd's Labor Party Government and the Liberal Party opposition to withdraw from the law books all legislation that seeks to undermine and attack the rights and freedoms of Australians to political free speech. We say that all Australian Governments should remove all so-called "racial and religious vilification" laws.
In particular, we call upon the Australian Government to enact legislation that publicly guarantees all Australians the right to discuss and debate all social and political issues.
If this call is not heeded, then the Australian people will be entitled to conclude that the Liberal-Labor parties have more in common with Third World banana republic dictatorships and fascism-communism than with the democratic and freedom-loving foundations of decent Australian society.
It was the Labor and Liberal parties which introduced the current anti-freedom laws and set up quasi-legal bodies to enforce them. The Labor and Liberal parties have the power to withdraw the anti-freedom laws and instead enact laws that guarantee freedom of speech. If not, then all actions carried out by the Thought Police (the so-called Human Rights industry) and all actions taken under the anti-freedom laws (whether criminal or civil) shall be the direct responsibility of the Labor and Liberal parties, who will not be able to point the finger elsewhere for the harassment, intimidation and political persecution carried out under their laws.
We repeat the important point of this letter: We call upon the Australian Government to enact legislation that publicly guarantees all Australians the right to discuss and debate all social and political issues - either you will do this, in support of the right to freedom of speech, or you will not do this, if you are against free speech and intend to push your Political Correctness upon the Australian People by force.
We await your decision.
The National Committee, Australian Protectionist Party
