What we stand for and what we don't

What we stand for and what we don't

Allies for a Strong Australia is a non-denominational, non-partisan civic movement. We speak in the language of Australian values and Judaeo-Christian heritage, not imported culture-war terminology. We are serious, measured, and solution-oriented.

 

We Stand For

  • A strong Australia: Confident in its values, united in its diversity, and serious about the safety and dignity of every citizen. 
  • A clear line against antisemitism: In our schools, on our streets, online and in public life. Without hesitation, and without qualification.
  • Social cohesion as a national priority: Treated with the seriousness of a national security issue, because that is what it is.
  • Active defence of democratic values: The rule of law, free speech within the law, equal citizenship, and the freedom to live without fear.
  • Every Australian's right to a fair go: No community should have to carry this burden alone; no Australian should feel unsafe because of who they are.

We Are Not

  • A single-issue lobby group: Antisemitism is the canary in the coal mine. The deeper question is the health of our democracy.
  • Exclusively Jewish, or exclusively Christian: Our founding communities still matter. But this movement belongs to every Australian.
  • A political party, or a front for one: We do not endorse candidates. We engage every side of politics on our four messaging pillars.
  • Shrill: We will be heard, but we will not shout.
