    He's right though. Who cares who they are! they'll be a bunch of headnodders waiting to rubber stamp whatever Winston says.

    Yes, I hope so too. I'll be pretty disappointed for NZ generally, if the National Party holds the power for yet another term.

    Hopefully there are plenty of agitators within NZ First pushing for a change.

    Winston Peters, Ron Mark, Kristin Campbell Smith, Claire Ashley, Toa Greening, Robert Monds, Anne Marie Andrews, Kevin Gardener, Sue Sara Brent Catchpole, Julian Paul, John Thorn, Holly Hopkinson. Maybe Ann Martin

    Can't see why you would be disappointed. Its the party who most, by a long chalk, new zealanders voted for

    The same could be said for the Greens. One things for sure - neither party will be agitating from within their electorate offices since they couldn't even win one of those.

    Winston says food prices are playing a part in negotiations. If either National or Labour agree to remove GST from some food items, I will never ever vote for that party again. So there.

    I doubt if National would be so naïve to agree to that, but Labour are so naïve they would almost certainly agree.

    Hope he doesn't die on us at this stage - might complicate things a bit

    Could be given the Prime Minister and Sir posthumously though.

    Nah - they wouldn't bother. He'll have to stay on his meat platters to get Knighted.

Then consider today's Labour party - loaded with green eyes wannabees, led by a brain-washed socialist, and paired with Winston First whose every utterence is about the past - 'the good old days of the 1950s'. There is real concern we would go backwards under a Labour/Winston coalition.
    We are doing better slong with the rest of the world. We should stay on track.

    What amazing rhetoric from a Conservative. Take some of your advice to EZ and have a Kit Kat. As for the link, I don't think much of what is listed applies to NZ
