The Australian Christians (AC), sometimes referred to as the Australian Christians Party (ACP), is an Australian political party that is described socially conservative and Christian-conservative. It was founded in 2011 and was registered by the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) on 15 December 2011.[3]
The party is primarily active in Western Australia and contests both state and federal elections, and elected its first representative to the Parliament of Western Australia at the 2025 Western Australian state election. The party aims to represent what it sees as Christian values.[4]
