Committee Secretary Select Committee on Foreign Interference Through Social Media Department of the Senate PO Box 6100 Parliament House CANBERRA ACT 2600 AUSTRALIA
Committee Secretary Select Committee on Foreign Interference through Social Media Department of the Senate PO Box 6100 Parliament House CANBERRA ACT 2600 AUSTRALIA Australian Citizens Party submission re: “Foreign Interference through Social Media” The Australian Citizens Party considers the “risk posed to Australia’s democracy by foreign interference through social media” to be minimal, and certainly not to warrant the extreme policy responses that have been proposed to mitigate against it, either in Australia or internationally. Whilst all Australia’s mainstream media, national broadcaster the ABC as much as any, have at one time or another produced numerous lurid stories of foreign (principally Chinese) interference in our domestic politics, without exception these have been poorly sourced, and neither they nor the government have ever presented any solid evidence that such campaigns have taken place, let alone succeeded in their aims. The same is true of the “cyber-enabled foreign interference and misinformation” in other countries mentioned in this enquiry’s terms of reference, the two most prominent allegations of which—Russia’s supposed meddling in the US presidential election and UK “Brexit” referendum, both in 2016—are themselves based mainly upon misinformation, along with supposition, prejudice, and those countries’ need for a scapegoat on which to blame their own political dysfunction. The true threat to democracy in Australia comes from the radical expansion of police and security- agency powers over the past two decades which in June 2018 led the former Office of National Assessment intelligence analyst turned whistleblower, now independent Member for Clark Mr Andrew Wilkie to describe Australia as a “pre-Police State”, which the present government is accelerating using the spectre of “foreign interference” as its pretext.
