00:00In order to register a political party, you need 750 people who are prepared to sign the register.
00:06So that's 750 people who would effectively out themselves as associated with neo-Nazis.
00:12And anyone who's thinking about signing the paperwork to register this political party
00:17has to think long and hard about whether they want their name and their reputation
00:21publicly associated with Nazis in New South Wales.
00:24Because despite what the organisation, organisers of the party will tell you,
00:27this information may well become public and you'll be exposed as a racist.
00:32I think we've got the highest barriers to entry for new entrants to political parties
00:36of any jurisdiction in the country.
00:38For example, I could have these numbers wrong, but there's 60 New South Wales parties
00:43registered for federal elections and we're down to about 20 in our state.
00:49So it's a high barrier to entry.
