Family First welcomes the return of commonsense to America under President Donald Trump and will continue its fight for Australia to follow suit at the up-coming federal election.
Trump’s declaration in his second inaugural address today that “as of this day it will be the policy of the United States Government that there are only two genders” is a win for the safety of girls and women, Family First National Director Lyle Shelton said.
“How hard is it?” Mr Shelton asked.
“We have been calling for this for years yet Australian political leaders remained captured by Woke political correctness.
“Family First’s Senate candidates will not rest until Australia adopts the same policy.
“But it shouldn’t take pressure from a minor party for Liberal, Labor, Teals and Green to wake up to the commonsense of human biology and repudiate the crazy demands of LGBTIQA+ political activists.”
Mr Shelton said the same applied to the Paris Climate Accord with Trump today signing an executive order to leave what he described as a “rip off”.
Vice-President JD Vance said exiting Paris would save US taxpayers $1 trillion.
Mr Shelton said Australians struggling with our own home-grown cost-of-living crisis brought on in large part by Liberal and Labor Governments pursuing the Paris agenda should also be given relief which would come by withdrawing from the accord.
“The idea that so-called renewables provide cheaper and reliable electricity and save the planet is completely discredited,” Mr Shelton said.
“All we are doing by being in Paris is punishing working families.”
Family First has long called for commonsense on gender and net zero, but it has taken the re-election of Donald Trump to be a first mover.
Mr Shelton also noted Donald Trump would restore freedom of speech and religion.
“The new White House has adopted Family First’s key campaign objectives for the up-coming Australian federal election – cut power prices, protect parental rights to educate their kids and protect women and children from gender ideology.”
Mr Shelton noted that President Trump has also vowed to protect girls’ and women’s sports, get radical gender ideology and critical race theory out of schools.
“Family First is also campaigning for this and notes that the Liberal, Labor, Teal and Green political establishment are largely on a unity ticket on gender and Paris.”
