Australians for a Progressive Society

Australians for a Progressive Society (abbreviated to AFAPS) is a political organisation that originated on Facebook late in November, 2013, presumably created in response to the Abbott government.

The organisation has since grown and has become quite a large underground-style grassroots movement consisting of well over 10,000 'likes' on Facebook.

Political affiliations
AFAPS "don't support any one political party", nor are they "backed by any political party", according to their Facebook page. The page however does draw in considerable engagement from those on the mainstream Left - including members and supporters of the Australian Labor Party and the Australian Greens.
