Patrick Henry - American lawyer, patriot and orator, held as a symbol of the American struggle for liberty 1736-1799.

The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government - lest it come to dominate our lives and interests.

We are called the Australian Sovereignty Party (ASP) because we will restore and preserve the independent, self-governing and sovereign character of Australia. In this nation, according to our Constitution, it is the community collectively that is sovereign. As our forefathers and frame-workers of our great Constitution stated, “the supreme absolute and uncontrollable authority remains with the people.”

• We are against the surrendering of our sovereignty, as offshore bodies such as the IMF, World Bank, the U.N., and other organisations, now exercise excessive influence over the policy making decisions of our present government.

• We reject the idea of a global government. We will expose the globalist agenda to make every nation inter-dependent and ultimately destroy the sovereignty of all nations in their efforts to create a one world global government (commonly referred to as the New World Order – see here).

• We will clean house in Canberra, and wrest the government out of the hands of the corporations and other organisations set on destroying our sovereignty and making enormous profits while robbing us all. We shall return the government back to the people, for the people.

• As it is essential to our sovereignty, independence, good health and survivability, we will ensure Australia can produce all of its own food and nutrition needs, thus not relying on imported foods from an increasingly unstable world.

• We will revolutionise our economy, delivering prosperity and wealth to all Australians, and in the process we will boost our manufacturing capacity to a level such that we can produce all the goods, products and materials we need. We should be as self-sufficient as possible and not be dependent or reliant on other nations.

• We will recall our troops from unjust wars, boost defence spending, and vastly increase the size and power of our military to ensure we can defend our nation and protect our borders, without having to rely on any corrupt and unreliable foreign power to defend our country.

• We recognise that the protections and freedoms we enjoy under our Constitution, and everything derived from the Common Law; aka Natural Justice. Unfortunately, our Constitution has been manipulated by previous governments without lawful referendum. Under our Constitution, Australians should be amongst the most free and sovereign people in the world.

• The ASP will champion an Australian "Bill of Rights" that will secure the people’s rights, and make the government fully accountable to the people.

• We should all be proud to be Australians and proud of our diverse cultural heritage. Whilst respecting the varying cultures and beliefs of all who reside here, we encourage all citizens to learn the national language (English), and be part of the wider Australian community.

• We will put a stop to the politically correct non-sense of diminishing, removing or frowning upon Aussie icons, habits, traditions and cultural uniqueness, in the name of not offending people of foreign cultures who reside here, particularly in our schools.

Confucius

The strength of a nation derives from the integrity of the home.

William Somerset Maugham

If a nation values anything more than freedom, it will lose its freedom; and the irony of it is that if it is comfort or money that it values more, it will lose that too.

Thomas Jefferson

What is true of every member of the society, individually, is true of them all collectively; since the rights of the whole can be no more than the sum of the rights of the individuals.
