Instilling Pride in Australia
We believe Australia is the Greatest Country on Earth.
Australia has excelled despite a small population. Our achievements should be celebrated and our youth should have pride in their home.
Pride in Australia
In recent times, it seems like it is wrong to celebrate our country and our flag.
We have politicians who refuse to stand in front of the Australian flag and political movements that advocate against Australia Day are promoted.
ABG believes we must celebrate the achievements the australian people have made.
More focus needs to be given to the great advancements that we have made as a nation. Instead of focusing on what divides us, we should all celebrate what makes this country great.
It is also important to believe in the potential of Australia. Many Australians feel apathetic when it comes to Government and politics. But good Government can help a nation reach its true potential.
ABG believes that more Australians will become involved in the political process when they begin to believe that it will advance our nation and our people.
We believe that Australia’s potential hinges on our ability to promote quality leadership.
our proposals:
Reintroduce civics education to the school curriculum.
Civics is the study of the theoretical, political and practical aspects of citizenship, the structure and functions of Government, the rule of law and our legal system, and the rights, duties and responsibilities of citizens.
Civics education seeks to advance individuals' meaningful engagement with, and participation, in the community, civil society and politics. Civics education plays a vital role in healthy democracies, by generating higher levels of political knowledge, facilitating political expression and informed debate, reducing voter apathy, and encouraging public participation by engaged citizens.
Our education system has failed to prepare young Americans for self-government, leaving our governmental system in danger of voter cynicism and apathy. The time has come to recommit to the education of our young people for informed, authentic, and engaged citizenship.

reforming the constitution
The Australian Constitution is the supreme law of Australia, yet we are told it is outdated and redundant.
We believe the Constitution is a binding contract between Government and the People - and therefore it should be a revolving document.
The People should not wait for politicians to reform the Constitution, the People should take the lead.

ensuring a true separation of powers
The separation of powers divides the power to govern between the Legislature (Parliament), the Executive (Cabinet) and the Judiciary (Courts).
Separation of powers is fundamental to a free society. Its purpose is to prevent any person or group from having all the power.
However, there is currently no clear separation between the Legislature and the Executive. We believe this needs to change.

Empowering Voters
Federal and State Governments around the Country are elected to represent the will of The People. As such, The People expect their elected representatives to Govern and make decisions on their behalf.
However, recent times have shown us that Government has enacted laws that do not reflect the will of The People, or have granted Governments special powers without seeking a mandate from The People first.
The Australian people should always have the final say, not politicians

enshrining our freedoms
Australian is a beacon to the World. We are prosperous, are blessed with a beautiful landscape and protected by the rule of law.
We believe people should be given a fair go and that hard work should be rewarded. Above all, we believe that all Australians should be free.
Personal freedoms should be protected, but at times they are not. We believe that a continual conversation should be taking place amongst the Australian people on how our society can enshrine our freedoms.
