Australians Against Further Immigration (AAFI) was an Australian far-right political party founded by radiologist Dr. Rodney Spencer and his wife Robyn, the parents of actor Jesse Spencer. The party described itself as "eco-nationalist",[1] was opposed to mass immigration and aimed for zero net migration.[2] The party was founded in 1989, registered in 1990, and ceased to exist in 2008.[3]
AAFI stood candidates at both state and federal level, but never won a seat. The party said it was a mainstream organisation, and sought to distance itself from extremist organisations such as the Australian League of Rights and from the Citizens Electoral Council.[3] In 1994, Franca Arena, then a Labor member of the New South Wales Legislative Council, denounced the party in the New South Wales parliament.
In by-elections in Mackellar and Warringah (safe Liberal seats on the Northern Beaches of Sydney) in 1994, Labor MP Graeme Campbell urged electors to vote for Australians Against Further Immigration (AAFI).[4]
The party was deregistered by the Australian Electoral Commission in December 2005, as lacking the minimum 500 members required to be registered as a political party.[5] It contested the 2007 New South Wales state election, but was also deregistered at the state level not long after.[6]
