The fucking coward.
By refusing to recognise Palestine, Winston and this Government have spat in the face of Universal Suffrage, the 40 hours working week and our Nuclear free status.
They have undermined our stance against Apartheid, they have shamed us universally and they have put us on the side of those participating in war crimes.
David Seymour has built an illegal settlement on the balls of the Prime Minister and we all have to pretend that is an independent foreign policy!
By refusing to recognize Palestine, Winston has not only tarnished his own reputation beyond redemption, he’s stained the mana of our nation by siding with Genocide in the hope to win favour with Trump – how despicable of this Government to forever disgrace us by siding us with war criminals.
What a sad, sick day in NZ history.
There must be an uprising against this horrific Government.
Winston is an obscenity.
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.
Winston has been showing himself to be a zionist agent from day 1 of the Gaza Holocaust.
He cut off funding to Palestinian refugees based solely on fake accusations the zionists made up.

He even lied on a National Radio interview, claiming that Hamas were stealing baby formula, to justify his zionist puppetmasters cutting it off from little Palestinian kids.
He 100% supports the genocide. There’s no reason he should be allowed to return to this nation. He’s made his bed, shilling for psychotic zionists who rape and murder little kids for fun. That’s what he’s about. Taking joy in the suffering of little kids.
Recognizing Palestine is more than just symbolic, as some say, it is a strong statement against deliberate barbarism, racism and cruelty. This shallow government, not only Winston, grovelling piddling like terrified mongrels anticipating possible consequences of Trumpian wrath, have defiled us all. A deeply shameful time for NZ.
A proud day for New Zealand.
Good call by Winston. Hamas and Israel are equally barbaric. We should leave them to it.
Yes he’s a coward alright, let’s hope that his baggage keeps getting lost and his meals taste disgusting as real New Zealanders do what they can to let him feel some of the suffering he is willing to inflict on the Palestinians.
Glad to see that common sense has prevailed and the right decision has been made.
Okay, genocidaire.
Your ignorance, lack of depth, perspective, and humanity shows nothing more than an excellent example of just how craven, and utterly limited your intellect, and conscience is… The fact that you are so obviously proud of your shallow bigotry simply demonstrates your unfitness to opine rationally on anything that doesn’t involve your own self interest… You are a disgrace to your people… That is, if you even identify as a kiwi…
Do you, or are you just another “rich prick” that came here to make money at the expense of those who are?
Ah, a Friend of Epstein has appeared.
Not sure who is more disappointed- the left or Luxon. Peters must have sided with Seymour. LOL. Lot of disappointed people in Wellington and GreyLynn atm
I listened to Winston and he made a lot of sense .By acknowledging Palestinian at this time is siding with Hamas.I do think we need to be firmer with letting Isreal know we do not agree with their current actions and they should stop further settlements.
From a local political perspective this is a large wedge between Labour and Winston that would be hard to overcome in any coalition talk.
Labour don’t want a bar of Winston
That’s right Lebleaux. Let’s side with genocide, ethnic cleansing and mass murder. That’s how decent society’s are made. Pat yourself on the back.
I have never felt so ashamed of our country’s so called leaders.
How the fk did things come to thi
s.
Sooooo humiliating. Soooooo fkn angry.
This is what Winston does. It’s what he’s always done. Whatever is most advantageous for Winston at any given time. And he’ll do it right up until he pops his clogs. He’s the undisputed master of the political cost-benefit analysis. Why anyone continues to be shocked by this I’ll never know.
Helen Clark must be swearing up a storm right now. How far we’ve fallen as a nation, and how quickly. This motley collection of self-serving, mealy-mouthed bullshit artists need to be jettisoned from the electoral airlock ASAP.
I truly couldn’t believe Winston’s decision – I never expected him to become a wimp and follow in the footsteps of the vain, weak and feeble-minded Luxon. Winston is happy to sit on the fence so when HE is ready he can try to make it look like it was only temporary. What a gutless monster he has turned into. In fact this whole pathetic, corrupt and dangerous CoC needs to be toppled NOW. As for ‘Atlas Seymour’ – no more than I expected. He has no moral fibre, no empathy and in fact is just an empty vessel. Well the day of reckoning is fast approaching. My family and I are totally disgusted and this decision will have serious repercussions. Must be one of the dumbest things this CoC has done amidst a myriad of balls-ups. Who in their right mind would align themselves with the insane, out of control Trump and the USA???
How can Netanyahu sit there and commit mass murder and genocide when 6 million Jews were slaughtered in the holocaust
Because he learnt well.
In fact he has surpassed the nazis in that he’s commits human rights atrocities and continues to get away with it.
Disgusting obscene bastard!
Not my gov’, probably because he is Polish and about as Semitic as I am. The Israelis are just thieving bastards who justify that theft with fairytales.
Hmm. Makes you think, eh?
Hopefully this turns out to be yet another point in history where we can look back at the moment that the entire bunch of CoCs lost the next election.
Winston Peters is a disgrace.
Israel’s war on Gaza is shameless. I think we can all agree on that. Unless you’re a Zionist. Recognition of the Palestian state is quite another issue. A way forward or simply rhetoric?
What is being passed off as a “government in NZ is nothing more than a collection of corporate lickspittles that are concerned more with the sinecures they will be rewarded with for doing the bidding of criminal cartels who have no interest in NZ above exploiting our resources…
I was in France in 2016, touring around playing my guitar, and I discovered very quickly that NZers were no longer viewed with affection..
Fortunately, I had developed a bit of an Aussie accent as a result of my time in Fremantle, so I could pass as an okker(Australian).. That ensured that my trip was a successful one… so we need not be worrying about our reputation overseas any more.. It was debased years ago…
You are absolutely correct in your assessment that we should be incandescent with rage over the utter cowardice, and craven toadying of this pretend government… The fact that the majority of NZers won’t care one way or another over this is deeply hurtful to me, and to the few here who still possess a moral compass..
I don’t always agree with everything you say Martin, but your unflagging commitment to educating/informing us as to what is being done to our country by those who would allow us to be enslaved by utterly evil, and heartless people is heroic, and shows true commitment to what this country used to stand for, but has abandoned in the pursuit of monetary gain above all else..
Respect…
I disagree, Winston did call out both Hamas and Israel in his speech, the time for Palestinian statehood is just not now, as per UN guidelines for definition of a state.
The modern left has problems accepting anyone else’s opinion, and it has a violence problem.
More mad leftists at the UN:

I am ashamed and incandescent with rage Bomber.
These whakama sellouts do not represent me or my Whanau. This is a historic stain on our whenua/countries mana for all time.
We used to have more decency and integrity in this land. I would like to have that back in our body politic. We must unite to re establish some semblance of a progressive society with human ethics at its core. I believe we can act decently in the world again.
How likely is Winston to be standing at the next election? He is getting on.
Murphy’s Law dictates Winston will be around until someone finds and destroys his phylactery, banishing him back to the hellish realm from which he was disgorged.
Seriously, we’re going to need an exorcism to be rid of Winston Peters.
Then the PM went on RNZ to repeat IDF talking points. What a wanker.
He’s got nothing down there to wank
This government is USA’s bitch.
Nothing else to be said.
This might be a moment where history records another reason for the defeat of the spineless coalition of craven cowards in the upcoming election.
Genocide is made possible by being normalised.
Winston Peters has normalised genocide.
The vast majority of the world’s countries including, our closest neighbour Australia, have refused to normalise genocide.
Genocide was normalised in German society in the 1940s
Genocide has been normalised in Israeli society today
Normalising genocide, is what makes genocide possible.
Winston Peters does not realise the enormity of what he has done.
By normalising genocide, he has made us complicit in normalising genocide.
Genocide must never be normal.
“If you normalize genocide, you will have nothing left”
Professor Noura Erakat at the 77th Commemoration of the Palestinian Nakba

Today is day 585 of genocide. Every day is a day of unprecedented atrocity. Two days ago, we saw a baby in a red onesie, not yet 1, have both of her tiny legs amputated. We witnessed a missile rip through a hospital to kill a renowned journalist receiving treatment and learned of the assassination of a 12 y/o boy who witnessed the massacre of 15 paramedics and their burial in a mass grave. Israel has destroyed 92% of Gaza’s residential buildings, incapacitated its 36 hospitals, and prevented the entry of food and basic goods. In doing so, Israel is not only killing Palestinians now but threatening the possibility of a Palestinian future. A campaign that seeks to obliterate the future of a people is a genocide. Yet, despite these chilling statistics and an ICJ decision indicating its plausibility, there remains controversy as to this basic fact. Why?…..

“Gaza is a rehearsal for the rest of the world.”
….If it is permissible to deny a people exist, to cage them, subject them to systematic warfare, then to use AI to bomb them at unprecedented rates in their homes, to burn them alive in tents, to experiment on them with suicide drones, to deny them medical care, to 6 allow premature babies to rot in NICU units, and mamas to be denied anesthetic to have c-sections, to starve them while their food decays in miles of aid trucks, all without consequence and worse, while insisting that their lives are secondary – if not altogether insignificant – relative to Zionist settler sovereignty, then I promise you that no one is safe. As put by Colombian President, Gustavo Pietro, “Gaza is a rehearsal for the rest of the world.”
For normalising genocide on the world stage, Winston Peters must be condemned in parliament by our opposition parties.
Unfortunately our biggest opposition Party, the Labour Party agrees with Winston Peters that there is no genocide in Gaza. This leaves it to the Greens and the Maori Party MPs to take the parliamentary fight to Peters and the administration he represents, and condemn them in the harshest terms possible for normalising genocide.
How tragically pathetic and politically childish that so many can’t see the “terrorist” label for what it is. Employed by the powerful to disparage the militant resistance of the powerless, it’s broadly defined as the use of force for political purposes. That would include the Maori who took up arms against British colonialism, the Mau Mau who did the same in Kenya, the Spartans who rebelled against Rome, the Red Indians who fought the settlers in North America, Guy Fawkes, Rob Roy McGregor, William Wallace, Davy Crockett, General Custer, the Zulus, Nelson Mandela, the IRA, the ANC, and not least, every member of the first Israeli government who took office in 1948, including several who went on to be Prime Minister, many of whom had blood on their hands and a price on their heads.
Resist the deflection – address the issues.
Since he became a politician Winston Peters has Never Been a Politician for the People but a Troughing Politician for Himself and for What He can Get out of something For Himself.
Like Luxon he has made Grandiose Promises but it’s likely He has Never Kept a Pre-election Promise. Like Luxon a Pre-election “promise’ is something used to Buy Votes in the lead up to an election. A Pre-Election “promise” is quickly broken and discarded Once the Votes have been counted and if in favour of the political party and their leader making such Grandiose promises.
For example in the lead up to the 1996 election Winston Peters vehemently Swore Not to Enter Into a Coalition government with National. But once the votes were counted and in the favour of NZ First Winston Peters showed to us all, and even my parents and I who foolishly voted for NZ First, as to how quickly a Pre-election Promise can be discarded and forgotten. He Jumped Into Bed with National
To this day I wouldn’t Trust Winston Peters and even recent events and his speech at the UN shows he just Cannot Be Trusted One Way or Another.
At the UN he proved He is Not a Representative of NZ and NZers but more likely a Representative of the coalition government and one that prefer to Sleep with America and Trump than possess any ounce of Conscience, Credibility, Morals etc.
This time next year we will be heading into the election. Lets remember the statement of Winston Peters. Lets Remember the Broken Promises of the NZ National Party. Lets remember the Un-edible School Lunches that David Seymour has Inflicted upon NZ children. Lets Remember these as we head to the Voting Areas. Lets Not Forget.
Lets Remember that this so-called coalition government has Sold Its Soul to Donald Trump and America and also Israel in order to keep favour with Trump.
Lets also consider this government IS NOT for NZ and NZERs. And Therefore Should Not be Recognised by NZ and NZers. Winston Peters Did Not Speak On Behalf of NZ and its population. He Spoke on Behalf of a government he is a part of and we should really Distance Ourselves from.
As a Nation we deserve better when it comes to our politicians who are supposedly the Representatives of Ourselves and Our Country. What we have here in government is hardly worthy to be referred to as Representatives of a Nation and a Country but Representatives of All That Is Wrong in the World in all their Self-Serving Attention Seeking Antics.
Lets learn from this and that Our Country Should Never Demean Itself because of the Ilk of Luxon, Peters, Seymour, Brown, Costello, Brown and all the Sorry Excuses of once had been humans that is this coalition government.
So will Labour and the greens state they won’t work with NZ first at the next election or is their objection just virtue signaling?
