Responsible. Progressive. Inclusive.
Labor Unity believes that the ALP should remain strongly committed to social democratic principles and values. Specifically, we believe in the following strategic goals:
Our Platform
- A strong belief in the necessity of pre-selecting quality Parliamentary candidates for both the State and Federal ALP Parliamentary Party
- Balancing ideal policy positions with electoral realities in order to give the ALP the best chance of winning and/or remaining in Government
- A firm belief that the ultimate objective of all economic policy is the attainment and maintenance of Australian economic stability, prosperity and full employment
- Social justice and equality of respect for every member of society, regardless of sex, creed, race, national origins, citizenship or economic status
- To encourage Australian ownership and control over Australian resources where possible
- Recognition and protection of fundamental industrial rights including the right to negotiate an enterprise bargaining agreement with an employer
- Safeguarding the rights of future generations through the conservation and sustainable use of resources and the natural environment
- An Australian foreign policy that is firmly guided by a commitment to multilateralism and international law, as well as the maintenance of strong bilateral ties with Australia’s allies
