Is NZs love affair with Winston about to end?

What on earth is this?

Deputy PM Winston Peters provided consular assistance to ‘Bad Boy of Brexit’

Deputy Prime Minister Winston Peters provided consular assistance to one of the “Bad Boys of Brexit” a month before he “scoffed” at claims they had been dispatched to New Zealand to help with NZ First’s campaign.

He is being accused by National of “using his ministerial influence and taxpayer-funded staff to help ease the way” for Aaron Banks to travel.

But Peters denied this, saying providing consular assistance was part of his role as Foreign Affairs Minister.

Wait, wait, wait.

Hold on.

What?

Let’s just get this completely straight.

Winston Peters, in his role as the Foreign Affairs Minister, helped the PR Spin Dr his Party has hired gain access in and out of the South Pacific?

The email chain shows the Spin Dr gained access to Australia before he contacted him but was that a case of due process or a private phone call?

If the threshold for undue influence is Ceasar’s wife must be beyond suspicion then his bloody Spin Dr must be spotless!

This smells bad!

  1. If you think that is bad wait till he is ambassador to the US.

    BTW that is the only thing stopping him going full feral on Labour

  2. EVERYONE IS PLAYING ‘THE DIRTY GAME’ IN NZ NOW SADLY.

    AS OUR LOCAL MP SAID IN A BLAND FACE TO US AT A MEETING “I AM GOING WITH THE FLOW” HE SAID TO OUR COMMITTEE UN-ASHAMEDLY.

    THAT SAYS IT ALL.
