Speaking to the Labor thinktank, the Chifley Research Centre's Conference, Mr Albanese will argue the executive branch of government has assumed greater political power at the expense of the parliament.

This has happened under successive governments of both persuasions, he will say.

"If we are to restore the integrity of our democratic system, the pendulum needs to swing back the other way," Mr Albanese will say.

Mr Albanese also believes fewer decisions in the parliament are being subjected to democratic debate and decision-making.

"The most prominent example of this is the decision to go to war," he will say.

"I understand there are those who passionately believe that a parliamentary vote should precede the deployment of our troops in conflict overseas.

"I also understand there is a long tradition of the executive making these decisions alone.

"Our parliamentarians should, at the very least, be given the chance to express their view following a cabinet decision to go to war."

Mr Albanese says Australia should look to the United Kingdom, where there is now a higher parliamentary threshold for decisions to go to war, or to the United States, which has a war powers act, for inspiration.

"We can't ask people to put their lives on the line if we as legislators are too afraid to put our arguments on the line," Mr Albanese will say.

It caps off a week in parliament where Labor repeatedly accused the Morrison government of subverting democratic practices.

Attorney-General Christian Porter managed to gag debate on Thursday to ram the revived union-busting bill through the House of Representatives.

Mystery also surrounds how the Coalition secured the support of Jacqui Lambie to repeal Medevac. Ministers insist she supported the legislation on its merits, while Senator Lambie says they worked with her on a proposal she'd put to them as a condition.

Mr Albanese will also use the speech to condemn social media companies for failing to crack down on misinformation.

"Sometimes, online platforms are unwilling to filter out content proven to be misinformation," Mr Albanese is expected to say.

"They'll argue that it doesn't violate their community guidelines. They say that so long as they eventually note the information is fake, the community can judge for itself.

"Mark Zuckerberg says he thinks people should be able to see what politicians are saying."

Mr Albanese will also reveal Facebook failed to act when a men's rights activist doctored a social media image from his Facebook page.

"The image even included my legal authorisation at the bottom - a clear breach of Australia's electoral laws," he will say.

"When we raised this with Facebook, they shrugged. They said it wasn't a breach of community guidelines. This is a far-right candidate, creating a fake graphic fraudulently purporting to be from a progressive party, and Facebook sees no issue.Well, I do.

"And it begs the question: if this doesn't breach community standards, then what does? And perhaps more importantly - why do Facebook's laws of the jungle trump Australia's laws of the land?"

It comes after the government agreed to Labor's request to set up a parliamentary inquiry into the rampant spread of spread of "fake news" fuelled by foreign actors on social media.

Greens senator Senator Mehreen Faruqi was also revealed to be a target of an organised far right network of Facebook pages that are profiting from thousands of hateful posts a week. The group has targeted high-profile Muslim women across the world.
