The Australian Citizens Party (ACP), formerly the Citizens Electoral Council of Australia (CEC), is a minor[4][5][6] political party in Australia affiliated with the international LaRouche Movement which was led by American political activist and conspiracy theorist Lyndon LaRouche.
The party has pushed conspiracy theories, including that international action on climate change and indigenous land rights are part of a conscious fraud masterminded by Prince Philip, as part of the British Royal Family’s scheme to depopulate the planet.[7][8] It ‘believes Prince Philip is trying to break up nation-states through the World Wide Fund for Nature and is involved in a "racist plot to splinter Australia"’.[9]
Founded in 1988, the party has been led by Craig Isherwood ever since.[10]
