The agenda of the F.R.E.E AUSTRALIA PARTY is to wrestle back the governance of Australia into the hands of ordinary people, and out of the hands of professional politicians whose disloyalty to our country is clearly shown by their actions.
The F.R.E.E AUSTRALIA PARTY bases its policy directives squarely upon concepts of Social Justice which seek to respect and support the rights of the individual and minority group. We believe it is time for change and time to move away from a two party political system of which the voting public find it near on impossible to tell the difference.
We seek to curb governmental excesses by the introduction of a legislated Bill of Rights and to stop never ending governance which thinks that by adding more and more unnecessary regulations, laws, and prohibitions to the backs of voters that a safe secure community will be made. We seek to turn governance upside down, so that people rule again, and that their permission is sought before a government does something different to what they were initially elected to do. There is no transferrable “mandate” in such cases. Part of this restoration of power to the people will be seen in more referendums being held so that the mind of Australian voters is clearly determined on significant issues, or decisions. This will generate greater empowerment to, and involvement of, Australians in how our country is run. A natural flow on from this is that the people be able to initiate their own referendum when they see a need, and not be dependent upon a government to do so. We seek to bring back freedom to this country, to restore and protect our natural rights. We will cause a return to a baseline presumption of innocence for Australians, as they are now considered guilty without trial. Along with this we will do away with the premise that guilt in criminal cases can be determined simply on the balance of probabilities, as opposed to it being determined beyond reasonable doubt by a jury of our peers. We will make it so individuals retain the right to know the detail of the allegations against them, thereby doing away with intelligence from a secret police force. We will make it so Australians, previously subjected to such heavy handed treatment will have the right to cross examine evidence in a court of law. We will decriminalise silence when authorities, be they the police, or the Australian Building and Construction Commission, demand an answer. No longer will a person be facing jail sentences for simply not speaking. We would repeal nonsensical laws which remove our natural right to freely associate with whomever we like. We will restore the notion of crime to be what a person does, as opposed to it being who they know.
