Australian Protectionist Party

The Australian Protectionist Party (APP) is a minor Australian far-right anti-immigration party, focused on economic protectionism and white nationalism, that opposes refugees and asylum seekers and often participates in rallies such as the one outside the Villawood Immigration Detention Centre. Since its formation, the party has been active in protesting against the presence of asylum seekers and Muslims, and has also organised several protests against Sharia law being implemented in Australia. The Global Project Against Hate and Extremism (GPAHE) released a report on October 5, 2022, in which it classified the Australian Protectionist Party as a "white nationalist," "anti-immigrant," and "anti-muslim" group.

The party was registered as a federal political party with the Australian Electoral Commission on 18 January 2011 and deregistered on 18 June 2015. The party continues to have an active website and seeks donations. Its current officeholders are not disclosed and its address is given as a PO Box in Tasmania.
