The Police for Freedom international movement was launched in February 2021. It was inspired by the Spanish association “Policías Por La Libertad”, which was formed in 2020 to improve overall societal wellbeing in these difficult times - both for citizens, as well as members of the police, firefighters, security personnel and the military.
The mission of this movement is to re-humanise our societies, bringing back trust and unity between the security forces and the people. The peaceful marches, events, campaigns and content created by Police For Freedom aim to educate people about their human rights, civil liberties, constitutional rights as well as the ethical code of conduct for the police and security forces.
We are colleagues from different occupations who want to continue to carry out our work based on our personal and professional ethics, without being influenced by fears, deceptive narratives, immoral rules or differences of opinion.
WE CALL FOR COMMON SENSE AND PROFESSIONAL ETHICS.

“I joined the NSW Police Force as a fresh faced 19 year old in 1990. I walked out unceremoniously in July, well before the mandates, but unwilling to enforce PHOs and what I considered the destruction of human rights. I reluctantly resigned on 5th of October 2021.. to stand with the public who are rightly in distress over the vaccine mandates, and the police enforcement of the Public Health Orders.
There are many decent police, but they are effectively gagged. It is for that reason, along with the now coercion to accept the vaccine, that I have chosen to resign and be able to honour my Oath to protect the public without fear or favour.
Our cause must always be peaceful, based in love, empathy, wisdom and uncensored fact.”

"It is time to overcome your fears and take action. Your community is waiting for you to speak up and stand with them. It is time to rebuild the trust that has been broken. While you are part of an institution I respect and love, it is not without its faults, and it is not above reprieve. These problems need to be aired with respect and with dignity.
I am the first officer to go public about my concerns. I risked everything in doing so, but I know I am only the tip of the spear. Know this, by enforcing these rules upon the population, you are removing your own freedoms. Without police enforcement these agendas are crippled. Now is the time to act and be on the right side of history."
