Winston intends to disenfranchise 700 000 permanent residents voters – those voters should punish NZF at the ballot box
NZ First unbelievably wants to purge 700 000 permanent residents of the right to vote.
Permanent residents who have spent a life building lives here while paying tax.
One of the scared values of Democracy is no taxation without representation.
The thing Winston has wanted more than anything else is to be the first Māori Prime Minister.
Winston will force a weak Luxon to give him Prime Ministership for 12 months in the next Government.
Permanent Residents who vote ACT, NZF or National risk Winston becoming PM and banning 700 000 of us from voting.
Andrea Vance destroyed NZ First in her weekend column describing the new recruits as ‘a cast of embittered political zombies [shuffling] back onto the scene’. You have Trashy Stuey Nashy, recreational Christofascist Elliot Ikilie, Former Conservative Party leader and love poet, Colin Craig. Anti-abortionist and Handmaids Tale prequel Alfred Ngaro, Walking case study in concussion, Taine Randel, and now The Platforms hate puppet Michael Laws.
If National, NZF and ACT get back into power – these political circus clowns will be in power and they will disenfranchise 700 000 voters.
You should all be very, very, very afraid of the social cohesion collapse robbing 700 000 voters will cause.
This is dangerous extremist politics from NZF and Gumboot fascism will follow.

Though I am sure this posting of mine will never pass my true opinion of Winston Peters but I feel that Mentally he is Completely FUCKED UP.
He wants to be prime minister but in reality he is nothing short of a Jumped Up Self-Obsessed, Attention Seeking Piece of Idiocracy. But then he also has Shane Jones also of the same Mettle.
If this country we hold so dear to us all wants to Demean itself into the realms of Dictatorship and Fascist state then it is probably something Peters in his obsession of State Control would be happy with.
After his Bullshit and Lies since 1996 I just do not trust one aspect of Winston Peters. Like Shane Jones Winston Peters ONLY looks after the EGO of Winston Peters.
Another assult on brown people .Pretending to be aimed at the Indian population but is aimed at Pacific people who have several generations here who have been slaves for the elite and part of the engine room of the economy for years .Happy for them to stay and be slaves ,why not give them automatic citizenship when they enroll to vote .
Doesnt this just mean the permanent residents would have to give up their pommy, yankie, aussie, desi, middle kingdom passports and go all in on being kiwi citizens? Lock their future with NZs future, no plan b.
Joseph, and what shall we do with people with dual citizenship?
Plan A and…….eh…. plan A.
NZ would become the same as other countries that dont allow dual citizenship eg. Indo and Aus.
When Rupert Murdoch wanted to buy US media he had to give up Aus citizenship. Over here Jim Grenon and Peter Theil get to influence NZ politics without relinquishing their US citizenship. Also does NZ have dual citizens in the terrorist IDF?
