Anti-Islam party to contest next election Australian Liberty Alliance

[nero_bolt]

CONTROVERSIAL anti-Islam Dutch MP Geert Wilders has revealed that a new party defending western values will be launched in Australia.

In a Youtube message, Mr Wilders said he would visit Perth next year to help launch the

Australian Liberty Alliance, which he described as a freedom party.

“Many of you are disappointed with current political parties and have had enough of politicians who sell out western civilisation,” he said.

Mr Wilders, whose Freedom Party is popular in the Netherlands, was the subject of rowdy protests by far Left groups when he toured Australia in February last year.

His views were condemned by several political leaders and in some cases he had to find new meeting venues when worried hosts cancelled bookings.

His visit was sponsored by the Q Society, an Australian “Islam-critical” group which is organising an international seminar this weekend in Melbourne.

AN anti-Islam party based on the hardline views of Dutch politician Geert Wilders plans to field candidates at the next federal election, raising fears among moderate Muslims of a rise in extremism.

Mr Wilders, an influential far-right figure expected to shape the results of this year's European elections, told followers in a video message that the Australian Liberty Alliance was being formed to "offer civil minded Australians fresh political vision and better policies".

Policies advocated by Wilders' Party for Freedom include deporting immigrants convicted of a crime and stopping all immigration from Islamic countries.

"Many of you are disappointed by current political parties and have had enough of politicians who sell our Western civilisation," Mr Wilders said in his video. "Like you, good people in Europe, America, Canada have had enough of politicians who don't share our values and foolishly declare all cultures are equal, and who lack the courage to speak the truth and say that Islam is the biggest threat to freedom today."

Australian Liberty Alliance was registered as a not-for-profit business last month by Debbie Robinson, the president of the Q Society, an anti-Islam think tank that was responsible for bringing Mr Wilders to Australia last year. The party will be headquartered in Western Australia and is expected to be launched by Mr Wilders early next year. It is yet to be registered as a political party with the Australian Electoral Commission.

What truly dreadful people.  we have enough hate already without importing a new ''dutch disease''

what if we had an anti-catholic party or an anti -anglican party formed here. that sort of thing is truly un australian.

Anti parties are a silly regressive idea, the proper procedure would be to form a 'Pro' party that is supportive of what a person or group does like, not what it hates. no wonder wilders has lost significant support.

Geert Wilders Is a Lightning Rod For Racists

Liberal defences of freedom of expression fall short when applied to Geert Wilders, who seeks to banish Islam in the West. Simply to ignore his racism isn't good enough, writes Nick Riemer

What do you do when a famous racist politician descends on Australia in a fanfare of media? Geert Wilders' current speaking tour makes the question topical, raising key issues about free speech, the political response to racism, and the utility of protest.

No sooner had Wilders' tour been announced than activists in Melbourne and Sydney called for demonstrations at his meetings.

The Melbourne protest — involving scuffles and allegations of provocation on both sides — was on Tuesday. Wilders is speaking in Sydney tomorrow. The Perth talk, slated for yesterday, was cancelled by the venue at the last minute.

Problems securing venues have been endemic on Wilders' tour. The only location willing to host Wilders in Melbourne was on the city's northern fringe. Something similar is likely tomorrow in Sydney.

I can't see that getting off the ground, he couldn't even get a place to speak from last time he was here.

I'll reserve my judgement. I don't want to go off on a hate rant before I see what their policies are and how they are relevant to Australia and how many are successful in their ballot.

Gert Wilders is a  man who is standing up for his country when no one else will. He is saying what many are not willing to even though it's a bit like the the disgraceful attack on Jews and their businesses in this country, but not a peep about that from the Labor party and their adherents. Pretty disgraceful.

It will be interesting.

I'm off to read the older threads on the man if they are still around

What a horrible man! What we don't need is more hate  directed at people because of their race or religious beliefs.

no we don't need hate, but we do need politicians who are not afraid to protect our culture and way of life.

I'm all for tolerance towards other races and religions but i do believe they should fit into the culture of the country they have adopted, not turn that country into whateer unsatisfactory to them place they left.
