Australia First’s policies include reducing and limiting immigration and “abolishing multiculturalism.” The chairman of Australia First, Jim Saleam, is a former neo-Nazi who was convicted in the late 1980s of organizing a shotgun attack on the home of an Australian representative of the African National Congress. WikiLeaks candidates in NSW include human rights activist Kellie Tranter.’ The Wikileaks Party blamed the outcome on administrative problems.
