Nampijinpa Price Withdraws From Put Australia First Rally

Her retreat follows scrutiny of planned rallies featuring a virtual address by British activist Tommy Robinson.

Overview

  • Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price’s office said she will not attend the Sydney event due to personal commitments after she briefly promoted her appearance in a now-deleted social media post.
  • Organisers removed the senator and her musician husband from promotional materials, while proceeding with late‑November rallies planned for Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.
  • British far-right figure Tommy Robinson remains billed to speak via video, with organisers indicating a pre-recorded or virtual address given his low chances of obtaining an Australian visa.
  • Put Australia First leaders say neo-Nazis are not welcome and distance the events from August rallies that turned violent and were promoted or attended by extremist groups.
  • Security concerns persist, with ASIO chief Mike Burgess warning that extremist propaganda can trigger spontaneous violence, as NSW police came under scrutiny for authorising a recent neo-Nazi demonstration; organisers also say Sydney City Council denied them a stage and forced a route change.
