There has been another change to the Wikileaks Party team for the WA Senate election after Julian Assange was ruled out and the endorsed candidate pulled out.

This week, Gerry Georgatos was announced as the lead candidate after Mr Assange was not allowed to run.

But following a media story which detailed Mr Georgatos' belief convicted drug smuggler Schapelle Corby was innocent of trying to take cannabis into Bali in 2004, he withdrew from the race.

He says he decided to pull out for "personal reasons" and denies it has anything to do with the fact he believes Corby is innocent.

Mr Georgatos also says the party has backed his stance.

“Everyone on the Wikileaks national council has been supportive of me on that [support of Schapelle Corby's innocence],” Mr Georgatos said.

He said he would have preferred that Julian Assange, the original choice, be the lead candidate but the party was recently told by the AEC that he was ineligible to run.

Mr Georgatos, a long time social justice campaigner, courted controversy when he ran for the Senate last year and decided the WA Wikileaks branch would go it alone on preferences.

He directed preferences to the Nationals rather than the Greens despite Senator Scott Ludlam’s strong support for Wikileaks and Julian Assange.

Mr Georgatos declared that the two remaining Senate hopefuls for this year’s election had his full support.

New lead candidate Tibor Meszaros said Mr Georgatos would focus on trying to build the party.

The general manager and producer of community television station West TV, Mr Meszaros will contest the WA Senate election with his journalist colleague Lucy Nicol in second place.

The party will only field the two candidates.

Wikileaks candidate calls for 'real democracy'

Mr Meszaros says he wants a royal commission into the banking sector, secure superannuation for all Australians and more honesty from politicians.

He also wants what he calls "real democracy".

"Make democracy real democracy and have democracy working in every day in our life," he told the ABC.

"Democracy is not working. Democracy is not working for the people, and real democracy is the one which keeps the politicians honest and responsible and accountable."

Mr Meszaros says politicians tell too many lies and Australians are entitled to know about everything they do.

"They're often lying to people and if they are lying to the people, that's not good," he said.

"The people who are paying the wage need to know what's happening.

"The Australian people got the right to know everything. Because they are working for us, we're not working for them."
