The party fielded two Senate candidates in each of New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Victoria and Western Australia but did not gain a seat in parliament. The AEC registered the party on 7 April 2019. In 2018, Culleton initiated the process to establish a new political party, The Great Australian Party, to stand candidates for the Senate at the 2019 Australian federal election. History Ĭulleton continued to refer to himself as a "senator-in-exile" and sought to appeal his disqualification to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in the United Kingdom appeals to it from Australian courts had (for all practical purposes) been abolished by the Australia Act of 1986. Glew's residential property was subsequently seized and transferred to the City of Greater Geraldton. This led Glew to mount repeated failed applications in the Magistrates' Court and Supreme Court in Western Australia. Glew had refused to pay council rates and levies since as early as 2005. This policy contradicts the actions of Wayne Glew, the lead candidate for the Senate in Western Australia in 2019, who had previously made attempts to prevent the seizure and sale of his own residential property due to outstanding rates and levies owed by him to the City of Greater Geraldton. The party further proposes a policy that criminal offenders would have sale of their property used as a possible deterrent. However in 2018 in complete contradiction whilst representing himself in recent bankruptcy proceedings being heard in the Federal Court of Australia, Culleton commenced his opening address by confirming the authority of the Federal Court of Australia by stating: "This Honourable Court has the power delegated to it by the Parliament of the Commonwealth under S 39B(1A) (b) and (c) Judiciary Act 1903 and by S 34AB (c) Acts Interpretation Act 1901." Ĭulleton has on numerous occasions declared the Australian Constitution is invalid and thus so are Australian courts. The party also proposes to implement trials by jury only in criminal matters, naming of young criminals who are serial offenders and the restoration of the "true" Constitution of Australia. Policies of the party include the abolition of personal income tax, nationalisation of the Commonwealth Bank and abolition of the Family Court of Australia. ![]() The party was formally registered by the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) on 7 April 2019 and is associated with former senator Rod Culleton who had been elected in the 2016 Australian federal election as a senator for Western Australia, but subsequently found to have been ineligible and was disqualified. The Great Australian Party is a political party in Australia.
