Radical fringe party vows to haunt Anthony Albanese as it unveils ambitious plan

Victoria's leading socialist party will expand nationwide in hopes of reviving the country's political left and holding Prime Minister Anthony Albanese accountable. Founded in 2018, the Victorian Socialists decided at a recent meeting of the party's executive to rebrand as a nationwide party - starting with a proposal to shorten its name to 'The Socialists'. The party will aim to achieve registration across all states and territories - joining only the two major parties, the Greens and the Animal Justice Party in doing so. Given the opportunity, the party claimed it would abandon tax breaks for Australia's wealthiest individuals and businesses and redistribute wealth to the working class. It would establish a public builder to construct one million new units of public housing over ten years, a renationalised Commonwealth Bank, a publicly-owned power grid and a wealth tax on billionaires. Recent VS senate candidate and squatter's right's activist Jordan van den Lamb told Daily Mail Australia the party hopes to hold the Labor leader accountable. 'In the 19th century Marx talked about how communism was a "spectre haunting Europe",' he said. 'We hope to be a spectre haunting Albanese - both by arguing for a socialist vision of society that's better and fairer than anything Labor is offering, and by reminding him of the ideals that he, as someone who historically stood on the left wing of the Labor Party, once held and which he has failed to live up to as Prime Minister.' Former senior Howard government advisor and political consultant Terry Barnes said Mr van den Lamb appeared to be suffering 'delusions of grandeur'. 'Marxism has turned out to be a discredited ideology so, if they want to stick on the fringe and have delusions of grandeur, good luck to them but they're not going to change Australian politics one iota,' he said. Andrew Carswell, who served as press secretary to former Prime Minister Scott Morrison, agreed, adding the party would struggle to rival existing minor parties. 'It's very difficult to emerge from being a fringe protest party to a legitimate national minor party. Very few groups have managed to do that,' he said. 'They've either done it through longevity, like One Nation, or they've done it through money like Clive Palmer.' He said the rebranded party would be lucky to secure a one-and-a-half per cent share of primary votes in a federal election in three years' time. Mr Barnes was only slightly more optimistic. He claimed a victory for the rebranded party might resemble a five per cent primary vote in a federal or state election in coming years. VS spokesperson James Plested said the expanded party hoped to deliver the changes Labor was unwilling to make. 'We were happy to see Dutton and his Liberal Party smashed, but we know Labor isn't going to deliver the kind of change Australia desperately needs,' he said. 'There's a class war going on in this country, and both Labor and the Coalition have, over many years, been waging it against workers and the poor on behalf of the capitalist class and the rich,' he said. Earlier this month, the Victorian Socialists secured swings in a number of lower house seats including in the north Melbourne seats of Cooper (4.9 per cent) and Scullin (3.7 per cent). In a number of booths in both electorates, the party secured primary vote shares of between 15 and 20 per cent - a significant improvement on year's past. But Mr Carswell and Mr Barnes said the seven-year-old far-left party will face an uphill battle building on gains in their home state, let alone extending the results nationwide. 'If they're struggling to pick up a good trend towards them in Victoria, then they're going to struggle elsewhere,' Mr Carswell said. 'You would imagine there would be a higher proportion of people that are sympathetic to their political views in Victoria than there will be elsewhere.' Both agreed socialism was a hard sell in Australia. Mr Carswell said the first thing the party should do is drop the word 'socialists' from its name. 'If they're using that name at the national level and they're getting one to one-and-a-half per cent, I think that's what they should be potentially shooting for,' he said. Asked how the initiative should be judged three years from now, Mr Plested said: 'Our strength is in our volunteers.' 'For us, that is the key metric: how many people have contributed to our campaign? How many of them remain active in between elections?' But, as Mr Plested insisted, the Victorian Socialists is more than a protest party and, certainly, more than an organiser. If all goes according to plan, votes will follow.

Pro-Palestine activists wreak havoc in wild protest at Melb Central

Don't miss out on the headlines from Police & Courts. Followed categories will be added to My News. Shoppers and retail staff were forced to take cover in stores and behind security shutters as frantic scenes broke out at Melbourne Central amid a pro-Palestine rally on Saturday afternoon. The havoc started just before 2pm, when dozens of activists stormed the centre as part of a 'national day of protest' calling for Australia to 'cut ties with Trump's America'. Melbourne's version of the rally, initiated by Students for Palestine, kicked off an hour earlier outside the State Library in the CBD at 1pm. Several groups, including Free Palestine Melbourne, Students for Palestine and the Victorian Socialists, were in attendance with many seen handing out flyers to passer-by's ahead of the rally. Among those in the crowd was federal Victorian Socialists candidate for Fraser Jasmine Duff — who was also a prominent player in the Deakin University encampment — and several other university students who led encampments across the city's tertiary institutions last year. Meanwhile, Free Palestine Melbourne lead organiser Mai Saif, socialist and union activist Jerome Small and human rights activist Rathy Barthlote were among the speakers at the event. They described US President Donald Trump as a 'billionaire nepo-baby' who was a 'symbol of racism' and an advocate for 'cruel policies'. They also called for the '$168b monstrosity that is the AUKUS submarine bill' to be scrapped, for Australia to shut down all US bases and stressed that Mr Trump was 'not welcome here'. The rally then spilled out onto Swanston St as protesters began to march through the city at 1.45pm, forcing Yarra Trams' incident response team to close off some tram tracks and Victoria Police to control traffic to keep everyone safe. But the mostly peaceful rally took a chaotic turn just after 2pm, when protesters marching down Lonsdale St targeted Melbourne Central shopping centre. Centre security tried to block all major entrances before the protesters arrived, but it wasn't enough to stop them running through one entryway with their banners and flags. Shoppers and families were forced to scramble out of the way as protesters ran through the centre, with some stores pulling down roller shutters to stop them from entering. One father was forced to shield his infant child's ears from the ruckus as protesters' chants echoed throughout the centre. At one stage a fight broke out between a protester and passer-by in front of the Optus store, with the protester being flung to the ground. Centre security quickly intervened before a bigger fight could break out. The protesters left the centre 10 minutes after storming through it, before wrapping up their rally just before 2.20pm. Saturday's protest came as further anti-Trump rallies were held on the streets of Sydney, Brisbane, Canberra, Adelaide, Perth and Wollongong. It also followed an earlier anti-Trump rally held in Melbourne last month.
