Everyday Aussies are horrified that one group of citizens will have its own private police force.

An armed security force with the same authority as police has been established to protect this group in daily life and especially during major events and celebrations.

“A private security organisation has been established in the interests of community safety and social cohesion,” began a statement from the federal government.

“One group of Australians has become extremely vulnerable in recent years, due to a rise in racist sentiment in Australia and the rest of the world, and particularly after a recent terrorist incident in a major Australian city, and that is why we have established the IDF.”

The IDF was established despite the particular group comprising less than 4% of the total Australian population.

“While it is a private organisation staffed, armed and administered independently, it will hold the same authority as Australian police as it carries out its daily duties, and it will be deployed to protect this one group as its sole purpose.”

During questions, the government spokesperson admitted that the security officers’ uniforms will be almost indistinguishable from that of a police officer, and that the private organisation will conduct its own recruitment and training.

In addition to the security officers on the ground, the government has created an App for reporting incidents and requesting assistance, and explained that the organisation will also promote a culture of safety and security through leadership, skills and tools to foster empowerment. It will also consult on safety and security matters, crisis management leadership during critical incidents, best practice policies and procedures, threat and vulnerability assessments, training, and education.

“The group in question should be proud of their way of life and should be able to freely express that pride,” the spokesperson continued, while encouraging all Australians to make a tax-deductible donation to the IDF.

Social media erupted following the announcement, with a vast majority condemning the move.

“This is outrageous”

“Political correctness gone mad, this is what happens when polis are too scared to offend minorities.”

“What a bloody joke – pandering to pressure from one group of Aussies over others, get rid of it!”

“Can anyone the app if they feel unsafe, or only ‘those’ people?”

“What have these people got on our politicians? Must be a lot of dirt!”

“Will Australian women get their own police force? Look at what’s been in the news the last few weeks…”

“What power will they have over everyday Aussies who don’t belong to this group that’s what I wanna know??????”

“So much for egalitarianism – bloody unAustralian.”

The last comment refers to the commonly-held belief that Australia is a uniquely egalitarian society in which a person’s social class, race, skin colour, gender, income or sexuality does not exclude them from any aspect of social life or entitle them to any special privileges.

The government spokesperson sought to pre-empt any criticism of the move.

“This particular group has become extremely vulnerable in recent years, particularly after a recent terrorist incident in a major Australian city.”

The event being referenced was the attempted bombing of an Invasion Day rally in central Perth in early 2026. An Australian man threw an explosive device into a crowd of more than 2000 people protesting against the celebration of Australia Day and in support of First Nations people.

The alleged bomb did not explode, fortunately, as it was filled with a liquid, ball bearings and screws. Police alleged the man was motivated by hateful racist ideology, and this is thought to have heavily influenced the government’s decision to establish the IDF.

The Indigenous Defence Force (IDF) will be deployed in every major Australian city, most regional towns and even some remote areas, with the spokesperson clarifying:

“… you may notice an increased IDF presence in your community at certain times of the year.”

Heavily armed and highly-trained security personnel will be deployed in public spaces and during public events involving Indigenous people, and everyday Australians will see them on duty as early as October.
