Earlier this year a group of patriots peacefully marched in Adelaide singing Waltzing Matilda on Australia Day – only to be shut down and arrested by the police. On the same day, there was an anti-Australia, antiwhite rally being held with chants of “Death to Australia” deemed perfectly legal.

The march made national news but the media was very dishonest about what happened and framed the peaceful Australian nationalists as terrorists, while those who were openly enemies of this nation were protected and celebrated.

Now the nationalists involved have released a documentary that tells their side of the story and contains some bombshell new revelations.

Watch the full documentary here:

Video Link

Historically, nationalist and alternative media has always been very hit and miss on a technical level. Whether that be live streams with bad audio, or roughly edited documentaries often crudely cobbled together from archival material. So, we really didn’t know what to expect with this one.

Immediately, the film opens up with confident cutting and use of counterpunctual music. This wasn’t going to be framed as a depressing pity-party, but rather a jovial celebration of what it means to stand up and fight for one’s nation. Young men are dragged to the ground by police to an up-beat acoustic guitar melody. A montage of physical action and plot points express a uniquely Australian sense of humour.

How are men able to be so unfazed after such violence and injustice from the police and legal system? The documentary is structured in such a way to explain this. Thomas Sewell, who humorously describes himself to the camera as “the self appointed leader of White Australia” sends his boys on a ten kilometre run, only to then be followed by a mixed martial arts tournament on the same day. So this is a hardened group of young men ready to take on anything. An action-packed sequence of kickboxing peaks the first act before the film’s heroic mission begins.

From here we follow the group as they assemble on Australia Day, intercut with South Australia Police at a press conference expressing their intent to use the full force of the law and shut down any celebration of Australia Day that the patriots had in mind. The boys then assemble around a war memorial, singing Waltzing Matilda, which is intercut with historical footage of Australian troops marching and singing the same song in WW2, followed by Sewell attempting to give a speech before the police intervene and drag him away into a white van.

This is quite significant because of what is revealed in the closing credits of the film. After Sewell was taken into custody, a microphone he had been wearing picked up two officers talking about shooting the nationalist activists. From The Noticer:

In the recording, one officer appears to check whether his colleague’s bodycam was operating by asking “are you rolling?” and replies “okay good” after the second officer says “no”.

“I’m happy to shoot them,” the first cop then says.

“Happy to?” the second asks.

“I’m happy to shoot them,” the first officer repeats as voices can be heard singing Waltzing Matilda in the background.

“I wanna hammer these cunts. These guys… just need to be shot.”

It’s a revelation that puts everything in context. The regime is anti-Australian and the destruction of Australia is not some mistake or mismanagement – it’s by design and on-target.

We all remember the violence of tyrannical police during the Covid lockdowns. Police forces now have labour shortages that they struggle to fill because to be a policeman is to be a traitor to your own people. The nation was founded and built on the White Australia Policy and therefore the current power structure is opposed to the nation’s heritage, foundation and what it truly means to be Australian. It’s also funny that this film has bigger newsworthy bombshells than an entire 45-minute hit-piece attempt from earlier this year by ABC’s Four Corners.

The film is very well put together. Even with some haphazardly shot footage, it has a very refined edit that pushes this material to its full potential. There are various stylistic flourishes that keep it engaging. Joel Davis makes a rousing speech that is edited with electronic music and clever use of jump cutting to make it a rhythmic sequence. This incorporates meme-video language into a more traditional documentary, which I think was very effective and forward-thinking.

The film is obviously a propaganda piece for this nationalist group and it does a good job at showing the scope of the organisation. They were able stage seminars with various speakers, physical marathons and kickboxing tournaments, followed by dominating the new cycle with an effective protest that exposed the antiwhite regime that runs this country.

Arguments about optics and self-censorship are destroyed by Joel Davis’s seminar talk. He explains how leftists don’t run to the centre ground but keep marching left, which drags the centre of acceptable discourse with them. Joel argues it’s time to march in the other direction and drag the country right. This means being unapologetically right-wing and no more compromises. And when packaged in such a well-made documentary, which doesn’t pull its own punches, it’s hard to argue with Joel’s strategy.

The main thing I want to express about the filmmaking is how tight this edit is. Normally when watching something like this, I would expect to write down notes for edit changes and suggestions, but I really have none to give. This is as tight as a bow. It goes from deeply felt, back to humorous relief, to insight, to revelation without ever getting bogged down. Intuitive musical choices progress its narrative and emotion. Stylistic editing techniques create variation between the different sequences. Multiple elements are interwoven and cross-cut to create juxtaposition and a third entity.

Looking at this film, I believe they would have been editing from shortly after Australia Day right up until its premiere. And some credit should be given to the camera work. They had very good coverage, I’m sure some of this would have been shot on phones but that gave it dynamism and freshness. You can’t edit what you haven’t shot. The lack of sit-down interviews gave this a tactile, ever-moving quality that transcends the stagnation of Four Corners’ bigger budgeted yet inferior film.

The structure is great, with an amazing series of emotional crescendos culminating in a message from a WW2 widow who expresses pride in the men and donates $9,000 to assist political prisoner Stephen Wells. In fact, the combination of this and revelations that police openly expressed a desire to shoot these men may have led to Friday’s dropping of false charges and release of Wells, who was held in solitary confinement for four months. Wells was slapped with phony politically motivated charges of “fail to cease loiter”, and “display Nazi symbol” for a patch on his sleeve. But rather than sign bail conditions that would prevent him communicating with his comrades, he stood by his principles and in the process exposed the justice system as corrupt. His suffering was not in vain.

My only real criticism with the documentary is the title of the film. I understand it’s kind of staunch to just call it “Summer Nationals”, which I assume is in reference to the name of the event they are attending, like how the Scouts might have a “Winter Jamboree”, but something more targeted and attention grabbing would have served the film better.

There are various nationalist activist groups in the West who have produced their own media. I think it’s fair to say this documentary is a bit of a milestone and inspiration going forward in terms of video production. At its heart, this is an incredibly Australian film and made for a domestic audience that shares its sense of humour and cultural understanding. But international audiences will still get plenty from the patriotic spirit and bravery depicted in the film.

This is something every Australian should see. Not just every nationalist or patriot – but every Australian including radical leftists and foreigners. They will at least gain a better understanding of Australian nationalism and how the police treat political enemies. The left has had a pretty free-run with their protests for years, but the recent crack-down on anti-war and anti-Zionist rallies regarding genocide in Gaza has made a film like this more relevant to everyone. Many leftists are waking up not just to Zionism but global Jewish plutocracy and the penny is dropping. The simplistic days of left/right are over. The patriots shown in this film are arguably more socialist than the Greens. They just want things done in the national interest.

    The invaluable core of this movie is, as always, gummed in propaganda. You get cops provably primed to kill dissidents. Then you get a lecture on… leftists.

    The brain fart here? Cops are not leftists. Cops are the state.

    The state just happens to be attacking their “right” synthetic faction now. They attack whichever faction scribbles over the lines in their doctrinal coloring book. Now it’s you. Then it was Gough Whitlam’s peaceniks.

    Your heart is in the right place but you got get it through your thick paramilitary skulls. Your enemy is not the left. Your enemy is the state.

    Did you not watch the film? They clearly state that the Government and its Jewish occupiers are the enemy.

    “The State” was not always the enemy, once upon a time Australia was officially a white country that didnt allow other immigration and prevented Jews from taking positions of power.

    What do you suggest they do instead?

    And pray tell, how long ago was that?
    Was it when Arthur Phillip was Governor in the 18th century?
    Because by the early 20th century, Jews were already in prominent positions.
    To name just two examples off the top of my head:

    1) Isaac Isaacs was the first Australian born Governor General (in the 1930’s) – he was a Jew.

    2) Sir John Monash – WWI General (whose face now appears on the Australian $1oo bill) – also a Jew.

  5. This film was very inspiring, if it didn’t make you long for our old way of life back, you’re either insane or a jew (or both).

    The baby boomers completely betrayed us, Gen Z are now awake to the great jewish plague. Digitization makes this sort of exciting, once DNA is kept on immutable blockchain, we will be able to remove every non-white pretending to be white from our institutions.

  6. @Truth Vigilante

    They had the White Australia Policy up until around 1970. It was paradise.

  7. This article and the associated documentary is a specious piece of propoganda intended to camouflage the participants.

    The following should make it clear to readers of Unz.com what The Noticer and the NSN actually are:

    1. The webzine The Noticer is basically a dirty-trick-op whereby particular Liberal Party ‘conservatives’ acquire influence over the so-called ‘far right’ in Australia. See: https://australiafirstparty.net/the-noticers-secret-wizard-exposed-as-alleged-nsn-benefactor/

    2. The “patriots” described in the article are in fact neo-nazis with a history of unprovoked violent behavior. One of the key leaders of the association has a very interesting history cavorting with Jews. See: https://inkyaustralian.substack.com/p/a-brief-online-history-of-joel-davis

    This comment by “Craig Munro” is by the Australia First Party, who have two elderly members, one is Lebanese (Jim Saleam) , the other is Jewish (Nathan Sykes) .. They troll every single nationalist publication or entity in Australia because they are jealous of everyone else’s success. They themselves have no success and are mentally ill. They are the laughing stock of Australian nationalism with no impact of their own and they fail to drag Australian nationalism down with them.

    “Craig Munro” mentioned “history of unprovoked violent behavior”, despite zero convictions. Lets have a look at the two members of Australia First:

    “Saleam was arrested for his involvement in orchestrating a shotgun attack on the home of an African National Congress representative in Australia…. Was arrested for the fire-bombing of a Maoist bookshop.[13]”

    I wonder what kind of agreement they made to stay out of prison.

    This comment by “Maniscowco” is by someone clearly seething that there are still nationalists in Australia who possess the brains to see through the NSN propoganda.

    He is unable to respond to the allegations made, for he knows them to be truthful and debilitating to the NSN.

  10. @Craig Munro

    Jim Saleam/Nathan (((Sykes))), I refuted your allegations by showing it is in-fact you that has been involved in violence such as shotgun attacks and firebombing. Its all in the public record. So the idea that you would accuse others of this with no proof is quite funny. Keep up the drunken trolling, atleast it is amusing.

    You have refuted neither of the two allegations I presented.

    My original comments still stand.

  12. These wannabes have c. 0.00001% popular support in Arsetralia. At least half are probably police informers and plants. Years ago there was a great doco made about earlier Arsetralian Nazis, called ‘Everybody Wants to be Fuhrer’, which appears to have been re-made in 2022. They spend more time stabbing one another in the back than anything else.

    • Disagree: Maniscowco
  13. @Truth Vigilante

    Jews in Arsetralia became more problematic after the creation of the Judenreich in 1947. Today they control both parties, as the wait of nineteen months for the Prime Miniature, ‘Greasy’ Albanese, to utter a mealy-mouthed reproach over the bestial Gaza Holocaust.
    The Labor PM Rudd, was offed in 2010 after a few actions against Israel, changing UN votes, and expelling a MOSSAD agent after the repeated theft of Arsetrailian passport identities, used in the ritual killing of a Hamas operative in Dubai. He was stabbed in the back by Labor Sabbat Goyim led by Bill Shorten, and replaced by Sabbat Goyette, Julia Gillard, the very worst Labor PM, so far.

  14. @mulga mumblebrain

    The Labor PM Rudd, was offed in 2010 after a few actions against Israel, changing UN votes, and expelling a MOSSAD agent …. He was stabbed in the back

    The real reason Rudd was offed was because he was on the nose with the Labour heartland (esp. the climate nutters), and polling demonstrated that he’d lose easily if he contested the next election.

    You see, after promising that Climate Change was an existential issue and his number one priority during campaigning in the Nov. 2007 election, he abandoned his promises soon after the COP15 Copenhagen summit when it became clear that none of the major industrial nations were going to do anything substantive to address the Non Problem of CO2 emissions.

    The token things Rudd did to displease the Apartheid Israeli state were all small potatoes in the grand scheme of things. Rudd was every bit the piece of shit that Gillard was.
    And here’s the proof that Rudd was still very much in the good books with the ZOG elders that control both of the major parties in Oz:

    1) As much as Gillard detested Rudd, who did she appoint in the coveted role of Foreign Minister?
    That’s right, she appointed Rudd.
    Because the script* (written by the ZOG elders) said that she should.

    (*Similarly, in relation to speculation as to who Donald Chump was likely to appoint as Secretary of State for his second term, not one person in a million would ever have imagined he’d appoint a lightweight like ‘Little Marco’ Rubio. Not only is Rubio supremely unqualified to do the job, but Donald Chump hated him with a passion).
    But that counted for nothing. Clearly Rubio had fellated the ZOG elders at the head of the table – so they rewarded him.

    2) In the role of Foreign Minister, this is what Rudd did (click on the link below):
    https://www.cbsnews.com/news/us-not-looking-to-arm-libya-opposition/
    From the article above:

    Australian Foreign Minister Kevin Rudd called on the world’s powers to impose a no-fly zone over Libya and compared Qaddafi’s violent suppression of opposition forces to genocides in Rwanda, the Bosnian town of Srebrenica and Sudan’s Darfur region.
    “For the sake of humanity, go now,” Rudd advised Qaddafi in a speech to the Human Rights Council in Geneva.

    He later told The Associated Press his nation supported the creation of a U.N.-mandated no-fly zone over Libya aimed to prevent the type of aerial bombing unleashed on the Basque town of Guernica in 1937, killing hundreds in the Spanish Civil War.
    A no-fly zone would require the approval of the 15-member U.N. Security Council.

    “Guernica is known throughout the world for the bombing of the civilian population.
    We have seen evidence of that in Libya. Let us not simply stand idly by while similar atrocities are committed again,” Rudd told the AP.

    Click on the link below and see what else Rudd said:
    https://williambowles.info/2011/05/03/stop-nato-updates-in-libyan-war-may-2-2011-libya-4728-nato-air-missions-1924-strike-sorties/
    From that article we have this:

    Foreign Minister Kevin Rudd has defended NATO’s mission in Libya after reports an air strike killed several members of leader Muammar Gaddafi’s family.

    What about the following ABC article titled ‘World must stay the course in Libya: Rudd’:
    https://www.abc.net.au/news/2011-04-06/world-must-stay-the-course-in-libya-rudd/2625940

    Summary: Australia had absolutely no dog in the race as far as what regime ruled in Libya.
    But, on instructions from his ZOG masters, there was no foreign minister on the planet that did more than Kevin Rudd to advocate on behalf of intervention that would ensure the toppling of the Libyan regime and destruction of that economy.

    Rudd was [and still is] a traitor of the most egregious variety.
    And yet somehow, there are some who still speak about him in glowing terms.
    I can’t fathom how anyone could possibly say anything positive about this economically illiterate clown.
    (He inherited a situation where the Federal Gubmint not only had ZERO DEBT, in fact the situation was even BETTER than that.
    He inherited a SURPLUS of $ 70 billion in the Future Fund.
    And, in less than three years, he squandered that $70 billion in no time and left Gillard with a Federal debt of $300 billion.

    When it comes to Fiscal Incompetence, Rudd was in a league of his own.

    To quote the words of then leader of the Opposition Mark Latham (taken from ‘The Latham Diaries’), spoken when he sacked Rudd as Shadow Minister of his junior portfolio:

    ‘Kevin, the only reason you were appointed as a Shadow Minister in the first place, is because you polled well with people who never actually met you in person’.

    You see, everyone that had actually met him in the flesh, saw that he was a dickhead.
    Rudd had no friends in real life.
    He was always a scheming back stabbing bastard intent on personal aggrandisement.
    He stood for nothing. He had no core principles. Just a worthless piece-of-shit of a man.

  15. People are bewildered by labels, how can the West be Nazis when they’re clamping down on nationalism and right wing movements?

    See the error in your thoughts, nationalists and right wing are just easy slogans that are used by the powerful to slice and dice any resistance to them.

    The “elite” are Zionist, they’re crusaders they are Nazi’s, they’re whatever you want them to be as long as one thing is clear… they’re on top… always.

    Hitler is a prime example of these “elite” at work, Germany could not have recovered so quickly from WW1 without the rebuilding hand of the Western “elite.” What was the objective? To use Germany to destroy Russia, problem was Hitler was duplicitous and wanted to win WW1 first, remember Germany never believed it was defeated, and so France and Britain had to be defeated.

    The Western “elites” were right behind Hitler until he betrayed them, then he became the most hated person on the planet, see the parallels with Putin today.

    If the world is to change then the old hereditary families and financiers will have to be removed, the top has to go, this will take a huge effort by all at the bottom, that means hall meeting and guest speakers who can give food for thought for the lost sheeple, organise and be clear of mind on objectives.

    The “elite” don’t care about the Jews or the Palistinians or anyone who gets in their way, Netanyahu doesn’t care about “his” people, he only cares about himself and other “elite.” Israel exists so the “elite” can control energy which controls countries, the hereditary cabal of criminal elite are your enemy.

  16. @mulga mumblebrain

    Very true. Politics is rigged in Australia, as it is everywhere else in the west. People need to do things outside the democratic system.

  17. @Truth Vigilante

    Turd is back, and spewing Jewintern lies. Perhaps Jokem IS correct. Rudd lost ONE opinion poll before the Sabbat Goyim moved. You are correct that Copenhagen was a sham, led by Obama where the West attempted to dump responsibility for addressing climate destabilisation on the majority world, and as ever, you are psychopathically deranged to dismiss the existential threat, but I suspect your Rightwing spiritual disease is of the omnicidal type.
    I never said Rudd wasn’t a shit-he was. Have you heard the Wikileaks tape where Obama speaks of getting rid of him? No doubt Gillard was thick enough to think that a prick like Rudd could be ‘compensated’ with Foreign Affairs. Tough luck-Rudd leaked against his own party during the 2010 election, robbing Gillard of a majority. And the Libya obscenity is pure Rudd-as I say, a total cunt and a real ‘lick up, kick down’ type.
    And your GIBBERISH regarding debt ignores the 2008 global financial crash-ever heard of it? Imbecile. He spent up, and Arsetralia was one of the few advanced countries that did NOT crash into recession. Perhaps his regime’s only true achievement, and probably Wayne Swan’s. Dumb as fuck, as ever.

  18. @mulga mumblebrain

    True, Rudd did a few master strokes for the country and was removed by Jewish power.

    ‘True Achievement’??
    Leaving a crippling legacy of debt for future generations is an achievement?

    Rudd blew hundreds of billions on overpriced school halls, roof insulation and cash handouts – which ended up enriching a handful of cronies and did precious little in the way of preventing a recession.
    Why am I not surprised that you would make such a moronic assertion and repeat like a parrot the falsehood disseminated by the propaganda department of the Labour Party.

    The Australian public, as ignorant as they are on many issues, even they could see that Rudd’s fiscal profligacy did NOTHING to prevent recession. The proof of that was the massive swing against Labour in the 2010 election where more people actually voted for the LNP coalition than the Labour incompetents.
    (The latter squeaked through on Green preferences and bribing the independents in the House).

    Now Mulga, buckle up and get ready for an education in relation to the REAL REASON Australia escaped recession in 2008/09 – and it had NOTHING to do with Rudd’s Big Gubmint boondoggles and reckless spending.
    Even Labour party officials admitted at the time that the Mining Boom during the GFC was a major influence on Australia’s fortunes.
    However, Rudd and the Labour Party were claiming their wise stewardship was responsible for that boom. The reality is a world away, as Vern Gowdie (an especially astute Aussie financial commentator), will demonstrate below:

    The [Australian] mining boom was no marvel of economic stewardship.
    The demand for our resources was a DIRECT RESULT of China increasing its debt load.
    It rose from USD $7 trillion to USD $28 trillion between 2008 and 2014.

    Got it now Mulga?
    Those thousands of kilometres of highways and bridges to nowhere that the CPC recklessly spent up on, that excess capacity in International Airports (China built about 8-10 MEGA airports in excess of capacity – that to this day are sparsely utilised or not at all), those thousands of high rise apartment eyesores in the ghost cities, all were built disproportionately using AUSTRALIAN RESOURCES like iron ore, coal etc.

    Australia’s dollar (AUD) is known as a commodity currency.
    There is a REASON that the AUD went from US 60 cents in late 2008 to US $1.10 three years later. (That’s right – worth 10% more than the USD).
    China went on a SPENDING BINGE of unimaginable proportions, and this was reflected in Australia’s terms of trade and the meteoric rise in the AUD.

    Simply put: CHINA SAVED OUR BACON.
    It had nothing to do with the squandering of billions by Rudd and then Gillard.

    Mulga, just when I think you cannot possibly be more stupid, you sometimes surprise me and lower the bar further still with even dumber assertions.

    And you certainly did that with your ‘Rudd’s squandering of hundreds of billions on school halls/roof insulation was his crowning achievement’.
    That has to rank as a contender for ‘Asinine Assertion of the Month’.
    (Outdone only by your previous remarks on other issues, which were even more preposterous).

    The spending recklessness and fiscal idiocy of Rudd had nothing to do with it.
