In this article we expose 21 year old Nathan Bull, a prominent member of National Socialist Network in Melbourne and the son of a Victorian Police officer.
Nathan Bull’s dad shared that he was proud of his son last year, posting a photo of him in a Runic Storm (Ukrainian neo-Nazi merch store) t-shirt featuring a Black Sun and a Reichsadler.
Nathan Bull has a prominent vegvísir tattoo that he displays in group photos with National Socialist Network in Melbourne. The vegvísir is an Icelandic magical stave but many Australian neo-Nazis have adopted this symbol for their tattoos.
He was present on the night that he and other drunk members of NSN left an Irish pub they extorted, to racially abuse people and start a fight they couldn’t finish. This ended in NSN leader Jimeone Roberts being bottled and in a coma for three weeks. theage.com.au/national/victo…
Nathan Bull also went to court to support Thomas Sewell during his trial for bashing a Channel 9 security guard. This is extremely bold behaviour for the son of a Victorian police officer and to us demonstrates the extent of his radicalisation into extremism.
Nathan and his friend, fellow NSN member “Mickle” have been attempting to intimidate people on the streets of Melbourne recently, including this pathetic display at the @CUDLMelbourne street kitchen.
We’ve also had reports and seen video of them roaming the Melbourne CBD on weekends, screaming homophobic abuse at people and ranting about the Bible and “degeneracy” while shirtless and high on drugs.
We’ve seen Mickle before, as a young Christian fundamentalist who was later radicalised into the National Socialist Network via “freedom” rallies in Melbourne.
Mickle, whose real name is possibly Michael Nelson, wasn’t always a Nazi (but he was always an extremely strange young man).
“Mickle” (real name is possibly Michael Nelson) is a disturbed young neo-Nazi and budding religious extremist who behaves very strangely on public transport, often meowing or screeching.
Can anyone confirm for us that “Mickle’s” real name is Michael Nelson, or do you know him by another name? DM us or e-mail us tips thewhiterosesociety@protonmail.com
Mickle appears to already be known to the police, in this TikTok video posted last year on his “autisticincel” account.
Nathan Bull is at the Kellie-Jay Keen-Minshull/Posie Parker transphobe and TERF hate speech event in Melbourne this morning, with National Socialist Network
Nathan Bull is no stranger to public displays of hate and intimidation like the Posie Parker event. Here he is at the Adelaide Holocaust Museum last year while visiting his comrades in Adelaide (many of whom are currently facing terrorism charges).

"Attorney-General Dreyfus signalled new anti-doxxing laws will be aimed at criminalising the disclosure of a broad range of personal information for malicious intent...activists and others could face jail for leaking private details without consent." theage.com.au/politics/feder…
The law "using a carriage service to menace, harass, or cause offence" is already incredibly broad, they just aren't used! Victims of doxxing who don't have money or power go to the police and nothing is done, even when the perpetrator is known.
Let's not forget about ACT Police "accidentally" providing Brittany Higgins's phone data to Bruce Lehrmann's lawyers. Her texts were then leaked to the media and published. smh.com.au/politics/feder…
In January we worked with Mike Hohnen, @BenHillier16 and antifascists around Australia to cancel the tour of fascist and Nazi Black Metal bands Taake and Akhlys. theguardian.com/music/2023/jan…
We contributed some research and writing to this excellent article by @BenHillier16 in Blunt Magazine on the Taake and Akhlys tour and the importance of denying the stage to bands like this in the metal scene. bluntmag.com.au/music/why-are-…
This is well worth watching — MyPlace are a sinister sovereign citizen group threatening local councils. Their leader, Darren Bergwerf is a Holocaust denier.
Tweets last night calling this “platforming” were wrong. Twitter doesn’t always need you to post a take in real time. Watch and reflect. ABC audience is exactly who needs to know about groups like this, and it was carefully done. Holocaust denial was confronted, not amplified.
Inevitably there will be an incident involving violence or weapons linked to MyPlace, as we’ve seen with other sovereign citizen groups over the last few years. Better to start educating and warning now as they grow in size.
Happy April Fool's Day to National Socialist Network, except we're not joking around. Today we bring you four more of their members, unmasked. news.com.au/national/victo…
Ethan Hendren was spotted at the Posie Parker rally with his swastika and Mjölnir necklaces on display. He was also photographed posing outside Legacy Boxing Gym a few weeks before, with his paper plate shield.
"His social media accounts are littered with far-right ideologies, including anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, and he recently posted about the possibility of going to Ukraine to fight alongside fellow NSN member Daniel Newman."
We worked with @AgeInvestigates to expose the QLD and NSW state leaders of National Socialist Network as well as neo-Nazis linked to VICPOL, QLD Police and serving in the ADF. theage.com.au/national/soldi…
This week was the fourth anniversary of the terrorist attack against Christchurch Muslims by an Australian neo-Nazi. Australia has never reckoned with our role in radicalising Brenton Tarrant.
We never forget. We’re committed to tracking and exposing the names and faces of neo-Nazis to help our communities keep safe.
A flashback to our work in 2018 investigating the stacking of the NSW Young Nationals by neo-Nazi members of the New Guard, Antipodean Resistance and Lads Society, led by Clifford Jennings. abc.net.au/radionational/…
Unfortunately, Jock Sowter and Jeffrey McCormack were not expelled from the party due to a lack of evidence (despite benefiting from the stack) and a lack of will from the National Party to investigate further.
Neo-Nazi Clifford Jennings also made his way back into politics, working as Head of Operations for the Christian Democratic Party state office in NSW under the name "William Jennings".
