Wilders-backed ALA won't join Bernardi

The Australian Liberty Alliance, which is backed by extreme right-wing Dutch MP Geert Wilders, has decided not to join Cory Bernardi's breakaway conservative party.

ALA president Debbie Robinson said the decision came after four weeks of negotiations with Sentor Bernardi after they disagreed on issues including organisational structure, policy development and candidate selection input.

Anti-halal certification campaigner Kirralie Smith, who was a NSW Senate candidate for the ALA at the federal election, last week joined Mr Bernardi's Australian Conservatives.
