MOVE ALONG

It’s official, and it’s not surprising. After what must have been plenty of whining during wine-and-steak dinners in nice Auckland suburbs and Golf games on barren turf, the government have given cops the authority and directive to issue ‘move on’ orders to unhoused people aged 14 and up. Punishment for refusing to listen to a cop – who was at best totally oblivious to Jevon McSkimming’s internet usage and, at worst, probably also needs their computer searched – ranges […]

CHECK OUT THESE NEW APARTMENTS

Maybe you’ve noticed some fancy new buildings along Knighton Road. Maybe, if you’re one of our readers who lived in Studvill last year, you got to have study sessions soundtracked by machinery, hammers, and worksite JBL speakers. These are the University’s new apartments. Billed as accommodation for students who want some extra independence (translation: not having to smuggle your sneaky link around) while still living on campus. These things weren’t exactly cheap to put together (trust me, […]

2026 NEXUS SUMMER ROUNDUP

While we might have been sleeping, partying, and recovering from Covid over Summer, the world did not pump the brakes to wait for us to get over our hangovers – I remember getting home from Laneway and dumping five onion rings from the airfryer into my plate while my twitter feed was suddenly filled with announcements of tensions […]

Shawn Gets His First Kickflip

Skater Shawn from Ohio (@punks.sticks_) battles gravity, concrete, and his legs, to land his first kickflip. He had this to share about the haunting process, “every fail made me try again over and over again without end to the point where I was about to pass out from exhaustion”. Shawn also shared with Nexus that […]

ASTROTURDS: The kiwi grifter’s desire to be a Yank

Recently, ACT party leader David Seymour half-earnestly plead to Parliament that they recognise the assassination of Charlie Kirk, a move which was blocked by The Greens and Te Pāti Māori. During a free Palestine march in Auckland, counter protestors from Destiny Church held a vigil for Charlie Kirk, including parading around framed photos of the […]

(national is) CRUNCHING OUR NUMBERS

The economy is a daunting thing for most people, not only are econ majors usually really, blood-boilingly insufferable, but the big wigs running the show love dressing up what’s going on in smoke and mirrors that make the whole thing seem like some calculated circus act: There are ups and downs and we will, eventually, […]

NEXUS BREAKS THE NEWS 

OOPS, ALL PEDOPHILES  Following multiple statements from the Trump admin calling the Wall Street Journal’s accusation of a lewd letter exchanged between the President and Jeffrey Epstein ‘libelous!’, the estate of the Legitimate Suicide Victim and New York Financier provided the US congress with Epstein’s ‘Birthday Book’, subtitled: “CHECK OUT THESE HUNDREDS OF PAGES AND […]

Warding us from the bad path: A crash-course in Māori wards

Written by Te Paea Parengaio Maurirere A quick history:  Let’s back up to 2001. Māori wards were introduced under the Local Electoral Act to give Māori a voice in local government. For many years, councils rarely created them because the law made it easy for a small number of people to stop them. In 2021, […]

Tamaki’s big London holiday!

During Tommy Robinson’s London ‘Unite the Kingdom’ ‘Free Speech’ rally on Sunday, amid showcases of flags featuring America’s Don’t Tread on Me flag, songs calling for Palestine to be shoved up the arse, and hope for a 1776 style revolution, the British anti-immigration rally platformed Aotearoa New Zealand’s very own Brian Tamaki, of Destiny Church. […]

A WIGNAT WALKABOUT  

On August 31st, across Australia, something like fifty-two thousand pairs of feet, according to some estimates, come marching out onto the streets, toting the southern cross and their blue, whites and reds. (not to be confused with America’s patented Red, White and Blue) In Melbourne, people from all walks of life – ordinary working Mums […]
