The Australian Liberty Alliance television commercial not approved for broadcast
Sunday, 19 June 2016
This is an extract from an internal Australian Liberty Alliance email dated today.
The following is the link to a 15 second TV advertisement you are not allowed to see:
Are you fed up with spineless politicians? from Australian Liberty Alliance on Vimeo.
The advertisement was scheduled to go to air tonight on GWN 7 in regional Western Australia on prime time programs.
I received word late on Friday that CAD had not given approval for the advertisement. CAD is independent of the television station and reviews election advertisments prior to broadcast. No reason has been given. As a result the prime time slots which were paid for on May 26th have been lost. I now have to wait until Monday to find out what they are concerned about.
This is yet another attempt to silence us and prevent Australian Liberty Alliance from spreading the word. It is extremely frustrating and reinforces the reason we need to ensure our party grows and becomes a strong voice in Canberra.
On a final note thank you again to all the wonderful hardworking loyal members and supporters who are working diligently to promote us. We would not be able to do this without your help.
I have attached a few photos from earlier this week of candidates outside Parliament House. Mr David Archibald is WA’s Lower house candidate in the seat of Curtin. Dr Marion Hercock is running as second Senate candidate for WA.
Marion and I will visit our manned polling booths in and around Perth next week to catch up with members.
Yours in Liberty
Debbie Robinson
National President
I don't know anything about the process, about CAD or about the reasons for this ad not being approved for broadcast.
I don't know whether rhe ad was submitted in time for approval or not.
I don't see anything offensive with the ad - but I'd bet London to a brick that the ALA's promise to stop the Islamisation of Australia has something to do with it.
