SOLD OUT

The Fall of the Commonwealth of Australia and the Reclamation

Introduction: The Lucky Country or the Taken Country?

Australia has long been sold to its people, and to the world, as “The Lucky Country”. A vast continent rich in minerals, clean water, good farmland and fair-minded people who believe in mateship, equality and a fair go. Behind this cherished story lies another truth: for the last 50 years, and seeded even earlier, Australia’s sovereignty, resources, industries and decision-making have been handed over to foreign corporations, globalist institutions and technocratic systems that care little for the people, the land or the sacred custodianship that first nations have held since time immemorial.

This is the story of how Australia was sold out; treaty by treaty, law by stealth, title by title and how her people might yet remember who they are, reclaim their lawful inheritance and stand once more as stewards of a free Commonwealth.

Tenterfield: The Birthplace of the Federation Dream

In 1889, Australia was still a patchwork of six self-governing British colonies each with its own rail gauges, tariffs, police, and armies. The dream of Federation uniting under one flag, one Constitution and one people’s trust had simmered for years but rivalry, distance and parochial pride stood in the way.

Then came Sir Henry Parkes, Premier of New South Wales. On 24 October 1889, standing in the Tenterfield School of Arts, he delivered his legendary Tenterfield Oration, calling for the colonies to federate. He spoke of national defence, free trade and the need for a Parliament accountable to the people. His words lit the fuse:

“The great question which we have to consider is whether the time has not now arisen for the creation on this Australian continent of an Australian Government, as distinct from the local Governments now existing.”

Parkes spoke of the crimson thread of kinship binding the people together. His speech inspired the 1890 Federation Conference in Melbourne, the 1891 draft Constitution, and the series of Constitutional Conventions in 1897–98 where ordinary people debated every word.

Finally, after public referenda, the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act 1900 (UK) was passed by the British Parliament and given Royal Assent by Queen Victoria. On 1 January 1901, the Commonwealth of Australia was born, not by force but by consent of the people, under a living compact of trust.

The 1901 Constitution: A Living Covenant

The original 1901 Constitution created a Constitutional Monarchy with three branches:

Parliament: To make laws for the peace, order, and good government of the Commonwealth.

Executive: The Governor-General, acting as the Crown’s representative, to execute those laws faithfully.

Judiciary: A High Court to interpret the Constitution and strike down any law beyond Parliament’s power.

Crucially, the Constitution:


✅ Guaranteed trial by jury (Section 80)


✅ Protected private property rights (Section 51 xxxi)


✅ Upheld States’ powers; anything not explicitly handed to the Commonwealth remained with the States


✅ Required any constitutional change to be passed by the people through a referendum (Section 128).

The power flowed upwards from the people not downwards from technocrats or corporations.

The Erosion: Trickery, Incorporation, and Silent Betrayal

How then, did this living covenant become a hollow shell?

🔹 The Australia Acts 1986. 
Marketed as the final step to “legal independence,” the Australia Acts removed appeals to the Privy Council and severed the lawful link to the Crown of the United Kingdom without a lawful referendum, violating Section 128. Many legal scholars argue this left a break in the original chain of trust.

🔹 Corporate Governance
. Since the 1970s, Federal and State governments have quietly operated as registered corporations. The “Australian Government” has an ABN and appears in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filings. Local councils, not even recognised in the 1901 Constitution, are now “corporate local governments” enforcing rates and fines under private law.

🔹 Royal Titles Substitution.
 In 1973, the Royal Style and Titles Act replaced “Queen of the United Kingdom” with “Queen of Australia” a statutory title that some constitutional researchers argue has no lawful link to the original common law Crown protections.

🔹 Removal of Jury Trials
. Section 80 guarantees trial by jury for indictable offences. Yet modern statutes cleverly reclassify offences as “summary” or “civil penalties,” bypassing juries and removing the people’s lawful safeguard.

Through these changes, Australians have been gradually repositioned as customers of a corporate franchise, not living heirs of a lawful Commonwealth.

The Globalist Framework: The New World Order in Plain Sight

At the same time that domestic law was hollowed out, globalist networks grew their grip:

🔹 The LIMA Declaration (1975). 
Drafted at a UNIDO conference in Peru, the Lima Declaration committed developed nations to planned deindustrialisation. Factories closed, textile mills vanished, car plants shut down and whole towns hollowed out. Australia became a quarry, shipping raw ore abroad rather than adding value at home.

🔹 Kyoto Protocol (1997) & Paris Climate Accord (2015)
. These climate treaties bound Australia to carbon targets that hit farmers and local industries hard, while allowing exemptions for big polluters like China and India. Meanwhile, carbon trading and “green minerals” create billion-dollar windfalls for global corporations, with local communities often left to carry the cost.

🔹 WHO Pandemic Treaty (Proposed). 
The World Health Organisation seeks binding powers to declare health emergencies, impose lockdowns, and override national parliaments. The COVID-19 era revealed how easily “emergencies” become tools for mass control.

🔹 UN Summit of the Future. 
Planned for 2024–2025, this summit seeks a new “global pact” embedding digital ID, online speech policing, pandemic responses and climate governance into a single technocratic framework.

🔹 Digital Land Titles. 
In NSW, the Land Titles Office was leased to a private consortium led by Hastings Funds Management for 35 years. Land deeds are now digital data, stored in corporate databases, a shift that makes land easier to trade or seize under digital governance.

🔹 Managed Retreat. 
Framed as climate adaptation, Managed Retreat reclassifies whole coastal or flood-prone towns as “uninsurable.” Residents are pressured to accept buyouts and move inland while corporations ‘rewild’ lands, claim carbon credits or consolidate them for speculative use. Community stewardship is uprooted in the name of climate safety.

The Main Architects of the New World Order

These policies do not spring from nowhere. They are shaped by overlapping networks:

United Nations (UN): the hub of global treaties and frameworks on health, climate, migration and digital governance.

World Economic Forum (WEF): the Davos club of billionaires and technocrats pushing the “Great Reset,” cashless economies, and digital IDs.

International Monetary Fund (IMF) & World Bank controlling poorer nations through debt and structural adjustments, promoting deregulation and privatisation.

World Trade Organization (WTO) enforcing free trade rules that override local sovereignty.

World Health Organization (WHO) seeking binding pandemic powers.

Bank for International Settlements (BIS) coordinating central banks, pushing digital currencies.

Elite Think Tanks (CFR, Trilateral Commission, Bilderberg Group) informal policy clubs where global agendas are seeded and aligned.

The Real Cost: From Sold-Out Ports to Lost Farms

The signs are everywhere:

Australia’s ports leased offshore, like the Port of Darwin to Chinese investors.

Qantas, Telstra, Commonwealth Bank, once public but now partly or fully privatised.

Farmland consolidated under foreign agribusiness and carbon offset schemes.

Community industries gutted and replaced by mega-mines and data centres.

People told to “own nothing and be happy,” while living costs spiral and communities lose their land.

How All Major Political Parties Have Failed Australia

In this time of rapid transformation, everyday Australians are finally waking up to a sobering truth: that the major political parties; Liberals, Nationals, Labor, Greens, and now the rising Teals have each, in different ways, participated in a slow but steady surrender of national sovereignty to global interests. Despite their rhetoric and occasional ideological differences, their policy alignments and legislative outcomes have too often converged around one core betrayal: the prioritisation of international economic frameworks, climate treaties and technocratic governance over the needs, rights, and sovereignty of the Australian people and land.

This convergence has not happened overnight. It is the result of decades of bipartisan consensus on deregulation, privatisation, free trade agreements, foreign ownership of land and resources, corporate lobbying and a willingness to submit to global financial institutions and intergovernmental organisations without proper democratic debate. These trends have accelerated since the early 2000s, under both Coalition and Labor governments, and now even the Greens and Teals, parties many hoped would stand for environmental integrity or political reform have begun speaking more for global technocracy than for grounded, local care.

The Liberals and Nationals: Custodians of Corporate Power

Traditionally seen as champions of economic liberalism and rural representation, the Liberal and National Parties have in fact been key enablers of foreign ownership, extractivist mining projects, and the erosion of community rights. Their ties to multinational corporations particularly in fossil fuels, agribusiness and banking have created a revolving door between corporate boardrooms and Parliament House.

Free trade deals signed under their leadership have decimated local manufacturing, locked Australian farmers into exploitative markets, and given undue power to foreign investors over sovereign assets including water rights, energy infrastructure, and even land. In rural Australia, the Nationals have increasingly failed to protect small farmers, Indigenous communities, or biodiversity, becoming agents of global agribusiness and fossil fuel extraction rather than defenders of place.

The Labor Party: The Managerial Left Hand of Globalism

While the Labor Party has historically represented workers, unions, and the social safety net, in recent decades it has shifted toward technocratic centrism. It has embraced carbon markets, global pandemic responses, digital ID systems, and social policies shaped by international NGOs and supranational institutions rather than local values or community consultation.

Labor’s commitment to Net Zero, while noble in rhetoric, has become tethered to carbon offset schemes and centralised energy transitions that benefit global capital rather than local communities. Their urban-centric policies often ignore the wisdom of Indigenous land stewards or the needs of regional Australians. Though the language of equity is used, the mechanisms often disempower local autonomy in favour of top-down compliance.

The Greens: From Earth Keepers to Carbon Bureaucrats

Many once turned to the Greens for environmental leadership but the party has, in many ways, sacrificed ecological wisdom for ideological alignment with globalist frameworks. By embracing carbon markets, digital surveillance for emissions tracking, and alliances with transnational environmental NGOs, the Greens have drifted from Earth-based wisdom and sovereignty into the logic of technocracy and UN-aligned climate management systems under the “Green New Deal”.

Instead of standing for decentralisation, place-based food systems, and Indigenous ecological knowledge, the Greens have become stewards of centralised energy policy, techno-utopian transitions, and narratives that often bypass true community consent. Their support for global treaties and digital governance models has distanced them from real people on the land.

The Teals: Style Over Substance

Emerging as a polished alternative to the major parties, the Teals present themselves as independents but most are aligned with the same corporate funders, global climate frameworks and policy priorities as their mainstream peers. Their emphasis on climate action, women’s leadership, and integrity in politics is noble on the surface but too often their proposed solutions replicate centralised, market-based fixes. They rarely question the structure of global economic control or propose truly grassroots responses.

The Teals offer reform without revolution, continuity without confrontation. Many are former Liberals repackaged in pastel tones. Their independence is often more performative than structural.

The Globalist Trap: A War on Sovereignty

Across all parties, what we are witnessing is the increasing entrenchment of global governance models often under the guise of climate action, pandemic preparedness, digital innovation, or financial stability. Whether through adherence to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, the World Economic Forum’s stakeholder capitalism, the World Health Organization’s binding treaties, or transnational climate finance mechanisms Australian governance is being steered away from the local and into the hands of a global elite.

This is not a conspiracy. It is a documented process of supranational consolidation. It manifests in smart cities designed by foreign tech firms, in biometric digital ID proposals, in foreign control of essential resources, in corporate land grabs and in legislation passed with minimal public input that aligns with global treaties rather than local needs.

In this system, the people are no longer sovereign. The land is no longer sacred. The political parties are no longer representatives of grassroots vision but managers of global compliance.

The Path Forward: Return to the Local

To reclaim Australia’s future, we must turn our backs on the hollow promises of political theatre and return to the only place where true power lies: the grassroots, the local, the sacred relationship between people and land.

This means:

Restoring local councils and community assemblies as meaningful centres of decision-making, free from state and corporate capture.

Revitalising Indigenous governance models, honouring Country and the authority of Elders in land management, water stewardship, and cultural life.

Supporting regenerative, place-based economies, small farms, cooperatives, ethical trade, community energy, and bioregional design.

Building grassroots networks of care, women’s circles, men’s gatherings, food forests, bush schools, and community healing spaces.

Removing corporate influence from politics and returning public resources, land, water, energy back to community hands.

Standing in spiritual sovereignty: remembering that the Earth is not a commodity and our rights are not given by governments but by the Creator and the sacred laws of life.

The Path Back: How to Reclaim the Commonwealth

Despite all this, the original 1901 Constitution still stands. It was never lawfully repealed. The living trust is not dead it lies dormant in people’s memory.

The Path Back:


✅ Learn it: Know the 1901 Constitution. Teach it. Share it.


✅ Assert it: Demand jury trials. Demand referenda for major changes.


✅ Restore it: Challenge corporate governance that violates the lawful trust.


✅ Reclaim land: Keep physical paper land titles. Resist digital-only ownership.


✅ Stand together: Reject Managed Retreat that uproots communities without true cause.


✅ Honour First Custodians: A true sovereign rebirth means respecting the stewardship of First Nations.

✅ Withdraw consent: If treaties, laws, or corporate structures violate the trust withdraw consent peacefully but firmly.


✅ Remember Tenterfield: A nation born by the people’s voice can be renewed by the people’s voice.

Commonwealth Custodians

On April 13, 2024 the Commonwealth of Australia was restored. A public notice was issued by Commonwealth Custodians and published on April 28, 2004 in The Australian newspaper headed Commonwealth Public Notice. “Let it be known to all concerned and affected parties: On the 13.04.2025, a public reading and signing of a Declaration of Trust and Founding Trust Deed was executed and entered into the Public Record at Hyde Park, Sydney, New South Wales, under the authority of The People of the Commonwealth of Australia. The Trust is available to view publicly at https://commonwealthpublicnotice.org. This notice remains unrebutted.

Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, all political parties, military, police and all relevant bodies have been notified.

A New Declaration of Australian Sovereignty

It is time to write a new story. One not dictated by Canberra or Davos, but by farmers, elders, mothers, healers, teachers, and tradespeople. By those who know the soil, who tend the rivers, who carry the songs of place. We need a People’s Declaration of Right Relationship with the Earth, with each other and with future generations.

This is not about right or left. It is about roots.

It is not about ideology. It is about integrity.

It is not about reclaiming a nostalgic past. It is about birthing a regenerative future from the ground up.

The parties have failed us because they have left the ground. Let us return to it and remember who we are.

Conclusion: The Crimson Thread Lives

“The crimson thread of kinship runs through us all…”


Sir Henry Parkes, Tenterfield Oration, 1889

Australia was not meant to be sold to the highest bidder, carved up by foreign corporations or digitally fenced in by global technocrats. It was built as a living Commonwealth, a covenant between land, people and spirit.

What was taken by trickery has been reclaimed by truth.
 What was hidden by corporations has been revealed by education.
 What was sold out by governments will be restored by the will of the people.

May Australians remember Tenterfield.


May they stand again upon the true Constitution.


May they walk this ancient land as free, sovereign stewards for their children’s children’s children.

Australia is God’s Land and so it shall remain.
