Australian Protectionists arrange speaking tour for BNP's Nick Griffin
The Canberra Times has reported on the announcement by the Australian Protectionist Party that the national chairman of the British National Party, Nick Griffin, has accepted an invitation to come to Australia to carry out a speaking tour across the country.
The national chairman of the Australian Protectionist Party, Andrew Phillips, said that Mr. Griffin would be speaking to Australian audiences ''on the experiences of the British National Party in their fight to protect Britain and its people from the demographic genocide that is threatening their homeland, caused by the large-scale immigration of people from the Third World''.
The visit of Mr. Griffin has been opposed by some Rainbow Extremists, who believe that people who expose the truth about Multiculturalism and Third World immigration should be jailed or somehow else stopped from speaking out. This speaking tour will be a test of Australia's democracy and its ability to allow dissenting political views to be heard.

Publicity for Protectionists in the St. George and Sutherland Shire Leader
Darrin Hodges, the NSW Chairman of the APP, was interviewed by the St. George and Sutherland Shire Leader.
Mr. Hodges made some common-sense points, which are not always aired by the media, which can be paraphrased here:
Asianisation is a process, not a person - opposing Asianisation is not about being against individuals, it is about wanting to halt massive and ongoing amounts of Third World immigration that will destroy our national identity, change our way of life, and bring about the demographic genocide of the Australian People.
Islam is a religion, not a race - so it is not "racist" to oppose it; instead, people should properly investigate the realities (not the Multicultural theories) of having large populations of Muslims within Western democracies, and what that will mean for future generations.
Congratulations to Darrin Hodges for more fine work in the media.

Darrin Hodges interviewed by radio 2SER-FM
Darrin Hodges, the NSW Chairman of the APP, was interviewed by 2SER, a community radio station, about his election campaign for the local council.
Darrin put across some common-sense points about the effects of Multiculturalism in Australia.
The interview, with an anti-Australian bias and as edited by 2SER, can be listened to on the radio station's website [click here].

Darrin Hodges interviewed by the Sydney Morning Herald
Darrin Hodges, the NSW Chairman of the APP, was interviewed by the Sydney Morning Herald about his election campaign for the local council.
Darrin's platform includes opposition to permits for mosques, sex shops and "any developments that undermine Australia's traditional and family values". He has noted that there is a link between the building of many high-rise developments with an influx of Asian immigrants.
"To ensure that the Sutherland Shire remains a safe, peaceful and harmonious community of Australian heritage, it is important to prevent overdevelopment ...Building large blocks of units encourages 'Asianisation' (for example, see Strathfield and Burwood)."
...Mr Hodges said Sutherland Shire should be a place for white Australians. "It's the birthplace of the nation. Europeans discovered and built this country and I can't see any reason why the shire or any other part of Australia should not remain predominantly European."
The same article was published by at least 18 newspapers (17 within Australia, plus another in New Zealand), as well as by other news sites and various internet blogs. Congratulations to Darrin Hodges for the fine work he is doing in New South Wales.

Darrin Hodges' candidate profile in the in the Sutherland Leader
The St. George and Sutherland Shire Leader has published the candidate profiles of those running in the NSW council elections. Candidates submitted statements of up to 160 words, from which selected quotes were printed on the newspaper's website.
"My primary concern is for retaining the amenity, traditions and lifestyle that I grew up with and that Sutherland Shire has become famous for
"To ensure that the shire remains a safe, peaceful and harmonious family orientated community of Australian heritage, it is important to prevent over-development.
"Of particular concern are the large number of unit blocks being built in the Shire. We do not want the shire to become like Hurstville.
"I would also be opposed to the development of sex-shops and Mosques as the former undermines family values and the latter causes community tension.''

Local democracy debate in the Border Watch
The Border Watch newspaper reported the comments of the Australian Protectionist Party's national chairman, Andrew Phillips, who supported the right of local residents to decide whether or not Mount Gambier should have fluroride added to their water supplies.
Whilst the common medical view of adding fluroride to general water supplies is favourable, recent years have seen concerns raised by medical staff and researchers over the often unreported side-effects and dangers of putting fluroride in drinking water.
Whilst it is up to medical scientists to determine and compare the risks and benefits of adding fluroride to water supplies, the APP has supported the right of local communities to consider and make decisions about local matters that affect them, with full access to information from all sides of any issue.

Feature article in the Canberra Times
The Canberra Times interviewed Darrin Hodges, NSW chairman of the APP, for a feature article, published on Saturday 2nd August 2008. The Australian Protectionist Party was mentioned at length.
Although the article was not written objectively and did not fairly report upon the good intentions of Australian nationalists to protect the Australian nation, it put across some of our policies and gave us a decent amount of publicity in one of the nation's most influential newspapers.
As the media industry is severely dominated by leftists, multiculturalists, and other anti-national types, nationalists will always find it hard to receive fair and balanced publicity in the mainstream media. Nonetheless, despite the article having a bias against nationalists, it was good publicity for the APP.
The full article can be read in the Australian Identity Forum.

Protectionist advertisement in the Melville Times
APP members have placed an advertisement in the Melville Times to publicise the work of the Australian Protectionist Party.

Rebirth of the Protectionists
A need to protect Australia from foreign control and manipulation, while setting up institutions and policies to build a strong economy.
At the same time putting in place policies that secured a strong European culture. These ideas were considered to be of national importance by our early leaders, like Sir Edmund Barton and Sir Alfred Deakin.
With many of these great goals now eroded by poor decisions made by recent parliaments, the Australian Protectionist Party has been reformed in an effort to right those wrongs.

Protectionist film night in the Sutherland Leader
A film night being run by the Australian Protectionist Party received a mention in the St. George and Sutherland Shire Leader.
The documentary film was about the concept of "peak oil", the prospects of rising oil prices and the resulting widespread impact upon our society.
Congratulations to Darrin Hodges, NSW chairman of the APP, who arranged this function.

APP publicity in Identity magazine
The April 2008 issue of Identity, the magazine of the British National Party, carried a favourable mention of Destiny magazine and the Australian Protectionist Party, in John Bean's "Nationalist Notebook" column.
"This is an appropriate place to mention a new magazine, Destiny, from Australia which supports the Australian Protectionist Party. They are protectionist in that they want to protect the Australian way of life and culture, particularly from asianisation and global capitalism. Destiny has similar articles to those you find in Identity. I recommend it. Details from PO Box 722, Croydon, Vic. 3136, Australia, or www.protectionists.org/destiny"
Identity magazine can be found on the internet at www.identitymagazine.org.uk or via www.bnp.org.uk

Protectionist advertisement in the Melville Times
APP members placed an advertisement in the Melville Times to protest over the attempts by the government's Multiculturalism bureaucrats to silence the Australian Protectionist Party, because the APP has been campaigning to expose the problems involved in having ongoing Muslim immigration and an increasing Islamification of Australia.
So-called "Human Rights" bureaucrats have been involved in this attempted suppression of free speech and free will; however, the term "Human Rights" is actually a misnomer as the bureaucrats and activists involved have no interest in the rights of a nation's people, but simply want to forcibly push their ideology upon the unwilling populace.
Many thanks to the APP members involved. It is these sort of initiatives that will spread the word about our activities.

Australian Protectionist Party advertisement in Endeavour magazine
APP members took out an ad in Endeavour (the magazine of the British Australian Community, a non-political organisation of British Australians), to encourage patriots to join the Australian Protectionist Party and support our campaigns.
Other Protectionists are encouraged to place ads in the journals of other organisations, whether they be of other European ethnic associations, special interest groups, hobby clubs, or whatever. We ask that members check the text of any advertisements with their nearest APP state contact.
This was a welcome initiative of APP members.

Australian Protectionist Party on ABC TV's Q&A show
[YouTube video] - Darrin Hodges, APP state chairman in NSW, was on the "Q&A" current affairs show on ABC TV. Speaking about Camden and Bass Hill, Mr. Hodges asks why town planning laws can't have provision for a cultural or social impact statement where local residents can say that they don't want their suburb invaded by Muslims.
When the homosexual activist/politician Bob Brown defends the Muslims, Darrin Hodges makes the point that Brown would be hung in Iran (under the Islamic Sharia Law, homosexuality is punishable by death).
Mr. Hodges is quite correct, Australian towns and suburbs that face the building of Muslim mosques or Islamic schools should be able to object to such developments in council planning hearings on the basis of the cultural and social impacts that would be felt by local residents.

APP campaigns against child nudity "art" exhibition
Australian Protectionist Party members were part of a campaign that halted the exhibition of nude photos of children at the Roslyn Oxley9 gallery in Sydney. Australian Protectionists campaigned on talkback radio and on the internet to close the exhibition and website (both included photos of nude children). Complaints were made, which led to the website being shut down and the police closing down the exhibition.
When the Melbourne newspaper The Age took it upon itself to reproduce one of the images of one of the young girls, topless, on its website, the photo was removed following calls by Protectionists on the Australian Identity Forum, and via email campaigning, for people to lodge formal complaints. This was a victory for those who believe that nude photos of children should not be displayed in the media. Further information can be found in the articles APP successful in campaign against child nudity "art" exhibition and Media responsible for publication of photos of child nudity.

Australian Protectionist Party campaigns for free speech
Following the moves of government bureaucrats who are trying to stop the freedom of speech of Australians giving their opinion on who they should share their country with, APP members have been speaking on talkback radio to expose the nasty anti-democratic nature of the so-called "Human Rights" industry.
APP members have spoken on various radio stations across the nation. Members have spoken on the Drive Show in Canberra (ABC), the David Oldfield Show (2GB), amongst others. The story behind this issue can be read in the article The government campaign against free speech has begun.

Australian Protectionist Party in the Maitland Mercury
In this page 3 publicity Terry Odgers, an APP member in NSW, made some hard-hitting common-sense observations, pointing out the Communist-style nature of the government's Multiculturalism laws that outlaw our rights to freedom of speech and threaten to jail ordinary Australians just for voicing their opinions on what is happening to our nation.
As well as being in contact with his local media, Terry has been busy letterboxing his area with Protectionist leaflets. Congratulations to Terry for his sterling work.
The text of the article can be read on the Australian Identity Forum. The story behind this issue can be read in the article The government campaign against free speech has begun.

Australian Protectionist Party advertisement in the Midland Reporter
APP members took out an ad in the Midland Reporter to protest over the proposed building of a mosque in the Swan Valley.
Good work on the part of APP activists.
Further information on this issue can be read in the article No Mosque in the Swan Valley (W.A.).

Launch of the Australian Protectionist Party in the Murray Pioneer
The launch of the Australian Protectionist Party was announced in the Murray Pioneer newspaper, highlighting the APP's intention to provide a political alternative as a "purely pro-Australia party based upon solid, traditional values".
The article also mentioned that "Protectionists recognise the need for an organisation to truly represent the concerns of Australians in their own country".
