Winston Peters refuses to use David Seymour’s name
NZ First’s leader took his election campaign tour to the heartland of ACT’s David Seymour in Auckland’s Epsom and, as Garth Bray writes, the crowd couldn’t miss his pointed refusal to utter his opponent’s name once.
Winston Peters could be sitting across a Cabinet table from ACT leader David Seymour by year’s end but there is clearly beef with his political rival.
“Your local MP” was as close as Peters would come to referring to Seymour at a campaign event in Auckland on Friday.
“Your local MP” has promised $38 billion in government spending cuts, Peters explained, not naming names.
“Your local MP” also has no policy around chasing tax fraud either, Peters enthused.
And in a show of “inexperience”, Peters told the crowd, “your local MP”, had to revise ACT’s alternative budget after Treasury’s Pre-Election Fiscal Update showed worse numbers for the Government’s books.
The New Zealand First Leader’s claims drew applause from a full hall of 150 at the Remuera Club, though some may have noticed one slip when Peters finally named names – referring to “Mr Hide, your local MP”.
The Right have been braying about the ‘Coalition of Chaos’ all year when the reality is that the Alliance of Arseholes – ACT, National and NZ First, are going to spend the next 3 years ripping each others throats out as Luxon endlessly sobs between Winston and David stabbing each others eyeballs out every 30 seconds!
ACT is so extreme and NZ First are so extreme and National are so extreme that they all fall off each others cliffs!
ACT wants billions spent on prisons while amputating all political voices that aren’t white and male while National want to vandalise the Egalitarian State by giving rich landlords huge tax cuts funded by robbing 2 year olds, mutilating public transport and literally stealing from the climate change funds using a Foreign Buyers Tax that will never raise anywhere enough for those tax cuts!
Winston wants to designate gangs domestic terrorists with all the paramilitary Police state that requires while funding Toilet cops to check you8r fucking gender in a public toilet!!!
These Egotistical Arseholes can’t do anything other than feed their egos!
They can’t and won’t work together.
The more the electorate see of the Alliance of Arseholes, the far more preferable becomes the Coalition of Chaos!
It ain’t over until the fat blogger sings!

We’ll be ending the chaos, don’t you worry.
And NZF aren’t going to be in Government. Don’t waste your vote.
The animosity of David toward Winston is about shoring up his support which he sees as being most at risk of moving to Winston as he crosses the 5% threshold. It isn’t reciprocated by Winston who has been in this game a long long time. In Government they will get on just fine until the next election cycle.

Not so sure it’s just for show. ACT was formed by the people who bought neoliberalism to New Zealand and NZF was formed to opposed neoliberalism. I’m pretty sure Winston will see it as his job to save the country from ACTs extremism and leftists really should consider voting NZF to make sure that happens
Fair Point
Totally agree. I’d like some Winny influence either on Left or Right.
Agree +100%
Seymour Butt is wannabe Winston without the brains to go with it. It’s all downhill for ACT from now on, even Roger the Rat Douglas does not rate Seymour.
Martyns on about the yellow tail wagging the blue dog. But that ain’t happening if it has a black head.
