Australian Workers Party (original) (raw)

The Australian Workers Party (AWP) is an Australian political party which registered with the Australian Electoral Commission in February 2017. The party was de-registered on 15 June 2021. AWP was formed in response to the continual expansion of economic neoliberalism pursued and implemented by successive Australian governments. The party holds that Australia's main political parties both follow neoliberal economic philosophies which have led to unacceptable levels of unemployment, underemployment, workforce casualisation, the deterioration of workers rights, worker exploitation, the emergence of the working poor and inefficient policies affecting Australia's workforce.
