A Liberal MP has called for a group of about 70 nationalist activists to be thrown in jail for protesting against the influence of the Jewish lobby on Australian politics outside NSW Parliament in Sydney.
Member for Vaucluse Kellie Sloane wrote on X after the Saturday morning “abolish the Jewish lobby” demonstration by the National Socialist Network that those involved should be “locked up”, while Premier Chris Minns vowed to bring in new laws restricting freedom of speech and the right to protest.
“Time to test our new incitement to hatred laws. These thugs should be locked up. They are a threat not only to our Jewish community who were the targets of today’s chilling display – but to broader multicultural NSW,” she wrote.

Ms Sloane has been an outspoken supporter of the Jewish community, who she says make up about 20% of her electorate, and in 2023 pledged $10 million for the Sydney Jewish Museum to create a new Holocaust centre as part of her party’s failed re-election campaign.
NSW Liberal leader Mark Speakman said on Sunday he thought there was a “very good argument” that elements of the demonstration violated Mr Minn’s new “hate speech” laws, which were brought in as a result of lobbying from the Jewish community and were highlighted by speakers at the rally.
Federal Nationals leader David Littleproud also weighed in on the issue on Sunday by accusing the police of making a “mistake” by approving the NSN’s application to protest and saying “someone should pay a price”.
Mr Minns rammed through his controversial legislation, the anti-protest elements of which were overturned in the Supreme Court last month – amid intense lobbying by Jewish groups following a series of alleged attacks that police have since confirmed were criminal con jobs and not motivated by anti-Semitism.
But the Premier, who has repeatedly stated that he believed free speech and multiculturalism are incompatible, said on Saturday he would try to pass even more restrictive laws to prevent similar protests against the Jewish lobby from being allowed again.
“We’re going to take steps in the future to give police the resources they need to ensure that a rally like that doesn’t take place on the steps of the people’s house,” he said.
“It’s likely the case that we need to give police more legislated powers to stop this kind of naked racism and hatred on Sydney streets.”
Alex Ryvchin, co-chief executive of the Executive Council of Australian Jewry, accused the demonstrators of being “evil”.
“To defeat this, our law enforcement and security agencies need the right legislative tools to monitor and disrupt violent extremists, and to prevent them from menacing or physically harming peaceful Australians,” he said.
The 67 NSN members stood outside state parliament with a banner saying “Abolish the Jewish lobby” while NSW leader Jack Eltis and prominent activist Joel Davis made speeches criticising “hate speech” and anti-protest laws.

“The Jewish lobby in Australia is so powerful they were able to pressure government to enact hate speech legislation that destroys free speech in this country,” Mr Eltis said at the beginning of the demonstration.
“And the pretext for these laws? Hoaxes, embellishment, exaggeration of anti-Semitic crimes that never occurred. Over the last year over $130 million of the Australian taxpayer’s money has been given to the Jewish community as a result of these lobby groups.”
Mr Davis said in his speech that legislation should not be passed as a result of lobbying by minority groups, and demanded the government have “one loyalty – to the Australian people”.
“The Australian people, not the organised Jewish community can determine what our laws are, what our freedoms are, what our rights are,” he said.
“The NSW government has passed laws restricting political speech and protest under the direction and the pressure of the Jewish lobby. The Jewish lobby concocted this pressure campaign with the complicity of the Jewish-controlled media, which pushed a fake anti-Semitism crisis.
“The Anzacs fought for a free and White Australia, they did not fight for a multicultural police state where our rights and freedoms are limited when they offend Jews and other minorities.”
The group then chanted “blood and honour” before marching away from the scene.
Police Commissioner Mal Lanyon later confirmed police had approved a protest against Jewish lobby groups and hate speech laws, but said government had not been briefed due to a “communication error”.
Noticer News understands it was the largest single-state NSN rally so far, following their previous rally where about 150 members of the group from around the country marched through Melbourne in August.
The NSW chapter also protested outside NSW Parliament in June, with a banner reading “End immigration”. That demonstration was not condemned by Mr Minns.
The demonstration came after the Australian Federal Police told parliament it was “concerned” the NSN were forming a political party, and said it was using new National Security Investigations to disrupt the group, even though they did not meet the threshold of criminal or violent behaviour.
Australia’s top spy, ASIO boss Mike Burgess, also criticised the NSN in a speech at a event hosted by Jewish billionaire Frank Lowy this week, accusing them of being “antithetical to social cohesion”.
