THE NOTICER’S SECRET WIZARD EXPOSED AS ALLEGED NSN BENEFACTOR

IT PAYS to watch closely when ‘conservatives’ start speaking like radicals, supposedly endorsing drastic alternatives to the outdated two-party Westminster parliamentary system in which Australians have lost faith. When conservatives, whose lifeblood is immigration and who were responsible for dismantling the White Australia Policy talk this way, something is up. Because they are not radicals. Their business is not to bolster opposition to what we broadly call ‘the system,’ but to localize, unify, and satellize radical rightist groups before rendering them ineffective. They did this during the anti-Islam phase of the early to mid-2010s and they are at it again, only with new faces.

Meet Fred Pawle. He was the subject of this author’s previous Substack feature “’Right’ Said Fred.” There, the author detailed his brief experience with the footloose surfer journo and thereafter Pawle’s ‘journey’ through the inductor apparatus of conservative politics. His involvement with the conservative pseudo–White Nationalist blog The Noticer piqued the author’s suspicions. The question of who is behind The Noticer became very important since its aggregate positions made little sense despite it arguing to be a free space for alternative non-uniparty opinion. How can such disparate views coexist given each organisational cell is calibrated to overpower the others to assert its dominance? It cannot unless all of them compromise to a centre position, which neutralises those units. This is the classic strategy employed by the Liberal Party’s dirty-tricks unit.

Glaringly, The Noticer dutifully covers the shenanigans of the National Socialist Network (NSN) and its supposedly moderate front group, the European Australia Movement (EAM) as if they were earnest Australian ‘nationalists.’ However, it has never touched the true Australian nationalists from the Australia First Party with the proverbial barge pole. Why would it be that effectively The Noticer is uniting ad hoc far-right entities in a quarantining wall around the genuine radical nationalists while trying to repurpose the term ‘nationalist’ to suit those groups which do not subscribe to the defining labourist tradition from whence it derived into one based more around Anglocentrics, meatball ‘racists’ and anti-immigrationists? We will leave that question alone for a moment.

Currently, the NSN is canvassing for support to establish a political party. That sounds like a doomed project and that’s the point, it is. But in a recent video hosted by Menzies’ Research Centre (MRC) and Institute of Public Affairs’ (IPA) graduate, Fred Pawle, it starts to become clearer. His guest in this video is a portly, bearded, long-haired ‘dude’ named John MacGowan, who dresses all in black like he’s off to a Nine Inch Nails concert. His appearance recalls The Simpsons’ Comic Book Guy, but from the dark side. This slippery character may have greater involvement with everything happening. We will go out on a limb and share allegations that he is politically and financially invested in The Noticer. More than that, The Noticer, and therefore MacGowan, are helping the NSN to try and establish a political base. These accusations came from a source close to MacGowan.

So, who is John MacGowan? He is a “consultant who helps people solve (and cause) weird problems.” Firstly, if his X posts are anything to go by, he has a taste for booger sugar, Colombian Marching Powder, or cocaine. He doesn’t hide it. Secondly, he gives no clues as to his involvement with the (for want of a better appellation) far-right on his channel but tries to stay knowledgably aloof in his opining. Interesting then that according to Crikey.com, the alleged rapist of Brittany Higgins, Bruce Lehrmann, allegedly texted MacGowan that he needed “bags” and wanted to “get lit.”

More supportive of our argument is that he was noted as being part of the Liberal Party’s “dirty tricks” unit. The same article covers this fact along with his various roles within the Liberal Party, and his appearance “via the media” in a 2014 Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) inquiry while working for the disgraced former cop, Liberal MP and NSW Minister for Police, Mike Gallacher. Nowadays, he is described as a “political adviser” and “conservative maverick.” In his LinkedIn bio he claims to be a self-employed “consultant.” In 2004, he worked as career Liberal and former Young Liberals’ leader, Marise Payne’s media advisor. Payne went on to serve as Minister for Human Services under Tony Abbott, Minister for Defence for Malcolm Turnbull, and Minister for Foreign Affairs in Scott Morrison’s cabinet. That’s just a bit of trivia.

Throughout the noughties he provided his services to various Liberal MPs, with his last government-related role being from 2017-2019 as senior advisor to Anthony Roberts MP. Then he went solo, or so we’re led to believe. Once a Liberal, always a Liberal. MacGowan now drops in as a guest on various podcasts, one unusually being a YouTube ‘stoner’ inspired channel Into the Weeds, which lists its mission statement on its banner as “culture/current events/cannabis”.

By all accounts, MacGowan gets around. His name opens doors. But who in the nationalist sphere ever heard of him? No one, until now. And that’s because it appears his latest ‘job’ is taking over from where the former Windsor-based chicken farmer come Libs’ dirty tricks hack, Howard Crawford, left off. And by all accounts they’re still hanging around ‘Nazis.’ In those days it was Mark McDonald’s Squadron 88, today it’s Joel Davis and Tom Sewell’s NSN (what happened to Hersant?).

Our mysterious informant gave no clues as to who in the NSN he deals with, if indeed he has ever met them at all. If he has a connection, it might likely be Joel Davis, although that’s pure speculation. But it has been said that he appointed XYZ founder David Hiscox to the role of editor for The Noticer. Again, unconfirmed, but given its style, highly likely. In which case, Hiscox’s association with the NSN is well noted.

So, we return to the question, why would he want to assist a grab-bag of Satanist, Nordicist, and fantasist role-players like the NSN to create a micro party and contest elections when he, of all people, should realise how laughable such a venture would be? Firstly, ASIO would have a direct list of all members waiting for them at the AEC offices. They would turn heaven and hell to prevent them gaining any traction. Secondly, they wouldn’t stand a political chance in heck of breaking the 1% barrier, and, if they did, that would accelerate their extinction quicker than any dire electoral result. They need only ask the AFP what harassment and undermining they have faced out in the hustings: imagine what specialist attention unabashed ‘Nazis’ would receive.

Indeed, MacGowan’s presence proves they’re already receiving it.

If MacGowan claims to be supportive of Australian Nationalism, why wouldn’t he funnel funds to the Australia First Party instead, which is already incorporated in NSW and has a wealth of campaigning experience, not to mention the most solid nationalist platform in the country? Simple, because the Liberal Party opposes us, but through its dirty tricks’ unit, deals with every other non-conformist entity the margins throw out. The Liberals unified with the corrupt NSW Special Branch against National Action (NA), the current AFP’s forerunner. They hate the nationalists for their stance on everything from immigration to the economy. They would not allow them to exist. They have never ceased harassing Jim Saleam. The Libs used agents against the AFP in the mid-noughties, throughout the noughteens and into the 2020s. They use the ‘other’ groups as a bulwark against them.

This then raises the question about the allegations put to us by our informer, is this MacGowan’s pet project, or is it a job? If it is the latter, who is paying him to do this?

We cannot say, and given that we emphasise we are conveying allegations, it is the nationalist opinion that in this scenario he aims to unite, satellize, and neutralise all the aforesaid minor parties and organisations he can, despite championing them on podcasts. This is what they have done and continue doing. By ‘they’ we mean the Liberals of which MacGowan has been so intimately associated for so long. Since it is out of the Liberal Party Dirty Tricks’ playbook, why should now be any different. Remember, the problem is parliament. One only uses the status of a registered party as a sounding board to alert Australians since the system is wholly rigged in favour of the two-party preferred model. That system is hardly about to allow its democratic engine to validate those who would bring about the demise of this industrial-era relic and he would know that better than anyone. That gravy train has served him well enough in his ‘career.’

Presently, we are seeing a rush of activity around the ‘lunar right.’ The National Observer, a largely irrelevant conservative alt-media channel, is borrowing the Australia First tag to try promoting three decidedly non-nationalist parties in the upcoming election. ‘John Lawson,’ a dyed-in-the-wool right-winger, suggests an Australia First ‘alliance’ between the People First Party, The Libertarians, and the Heart Party. All are multi-racialists with inflections on various issues. None is radical, and all are parliamentarian. None is patriotic. In fact, there is not a single patriotic party, barring Jim Saleam in NSW’s Lindsay electorate, running. It is curious how patriotism is absent from all major and minor parties in anything, but a calculated use of the colonial approved Australian flag here and there.

Others are speaking about “immigration” as the major issue, such as MacGowan and Pawle on Pawle’s small YT channel. But that is the lip service we always hear from the Liberals, such as in the 1980s and early 1990s when John Howard played a cunning game around the issue while the Liberals gave us the first Asian Member of Parliament. Obvious agents are spamming suitable channels on X, following and sharing content that appears to be leaning out of the binary spectrum, but on closer examination, is a con. When posters argue earnestly in favour of nationalist positions and then say, “This is why you should support Clive Palmer” you know the fix is in.

Most will likely preference the Liberals ahead of the others. And that’s because, while they hotly disagree with the Lib-Nats, they see them as the lesser of the evils. Yet, who is it that defers so willingly to the Jewish diaspora and worked to get their ‘hate speech’ laws up and running? It was the Liberals. Because they are, and always will be, a Zionist set. 
