A new political discussion show—Australia Unshackled: Defeating the British Empire—is now ready to watch on the Citizens Electoral Council’s website. The new show will focus on everything Australians need to know to destroy the British system of monetarism, and unleash Australia’s full potential.

Despite the recent hysteria over Prince William’s visit, and the usual Australia Day identity debate that avoids the core issue of sovereignty, the Australian people have a rich desire to defeat the British Empire. Our history gives a couple of examples: the old Labor Party’s knowledge and hatred of the London-based Money Power, and PM John Curtin bringing our troops home from Africa to save Australia in World War II, and allying with the United States led by President Franklin Roosevelt.

More recently, the mass-strike anger that forced the December 2009 defeat of the Rudd Government’s emissions trading scheme (ETS), was anger at a policy of the British Empire to destroy Australia’s economy, since, for instance, the Copenhagen genocide agenda was pushed by the Queen at the CHOGM meeting in November 2009. Those people who expressed that anger, may not be conscious that the British Empire was the target. But, as the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley wrote in A Defence of Poetry:

“At such periods, there is an accumulation of the power of receiving and imparting impassioned conceptions respecting man and nature. The persons in whom this power resides, may often, as far as regards many portions of their nature, have little apparent correspondence with that spirit of good of which they are the ministers. But, even while they deny and abjure, they are yet compelled to serve, that power which is seated on the throne of their own soul. … it is less their spirit, than the spirit of their age.”

The spirit of the age now is to reject imperialism and all its associated surrogate forms of policy such as green genocide. The spirit of the defeat of the ETS has opened up an opportunity for Australia to break from the Commonwealth and become a sovereign republic, if Australians are willing to fight, and take up that opportunity.

This is still the issue governing the minds of Australians as 2010’s political circus begins. Before Australians become demoralised and beaten down by the amateur circus featuring Kevin Rudd and Tony Abbott that has resumed in Canberra, and will continue right up until the next federal election, the Citizens Electoral Council suggests that all Australians watch our new bi-weekly video discussion show, called Australia Unshackled: Defeating the British Empire.

This show, created by the LaRouche Youth Movement and hosted by Glen Isherwood and Katherine Isherwood, aims to free Australians of the convict mentality—otherwise known as the “little me” who is so afraid of ‘they’ (whoever that is) that they exclaim “you’ve got great ideas, but it won’t happen, they won’t let you win”—that still governs the thinking of Australians today. It will discuss breaking political developments in Australia and the world, the developments around the mass-strike ferment of the Australian people, and the policies and organising activities of the CEC. It will also feature interviews with CEC organisers.

The first show, released on Australia Day, 26^th January, features an interview with Craig Isherwood, leader of the CEC. Mr Isherwood discusses the breakthroughs in history research on Australia’s founding, recently documented in the CEC’s New Citizen newspaper (Oct./Nov. 2009), as well as great republican figures such as Rev. Dr. John Dunmore Lang, and King O’Malley, who established Australia’s Commonwealth Bank as a national credit bank, making Australia the only country outside of the United States to ever have such a bank.

Watch the Australia Day edition, stay tuned for future shows, and circulate these everywhere! Have you become unshackled? If not, get started by joining the CEC!
