Reclaim Australia is planning a rally in Fremantle to protest against the local council's cancellation of the traditional Australia Day celebrations.
Details of the rally are on the group's Facebook page.
In a video on social media one of the organisers, Dennis Hutts, claims that they plan to rally to highlight their opposition to what he calls the "communist council" which he said was full of "traitors".
"The council is not happy about what we are planning," he says on the video.

"Organisers are being threatened. The council is demanding that we apply for permits.
"We are not going to because we would get knocked back. Also, we don't need permits Mr Mayor. We have the right to the freedom of assembly and that is what we are going to do."
This year's Australia Day has been a controversial topic in Fremantle ever since the council announced it was cancelling the traditional celebrations and planning a more 'inclusive' day of celebrations two days later.
The council said it's decision was driven by concerns about how Australia Day was viewed by Aboriginal people for many of whom January 26 represents "dispossession and pain".
The federal government immediately stepped in banning the council from holding citizenship ceremonies on the January 28 event and then local businesses banded together to pay for their own fireworks display on January 26.
Fremantle Mayor Brad Pettit said the city had not received any notification form Reclaim Australia about the planned protest.
"The police are aware of the potential for a rally on the 26th and will monitor the situation as they normally would," he said.
The City of Fremantle said it is looking forward to people enjoying a fun weekend in Fremantle, culminating in the 'One Day in Fremantle' event on Jan 28 featuring John Butler, Dan Sultan, Mama Kin and free family activities.
Dr Pettitt didn't think it was UnAustralian to want to celebrate the country's long history away from January 26.
"We only became a nation on January 1 1901, but more importantly Australia has a history going back many tens of thousands of years before this that deserves to be acknowledged and celebrated," he said.
"Acknowledging and celebrating this surely makes us more Australian not less, so it is not clear to me what the nationalist argument really is here."
"Fremantle has not moved Australia Day, we have been part of an emerging national conversation which is legitimately asking if there is a better, more unifying day than January the 26th in which we can all truly celebrate the many things which unite us in this wonderful country."
