It’s a pity Ed can’t keep a post open so all can highlight some of Peter’s bullshit promises and hate rants leading into a Election. I would suggest with all the old minds around here it could amount to a reasonable number.
Add all your comments below and I will use them.
Peters said that “capitalism has failed”.
Wrong! http://www.magapill.com/
Capitalism is the **only** economic system that has been shown to *work*.
Russia and China – the birthplaces of **communism** – have now massively adopted capitalism. Would they do that if it didn’t work? They’re NOT stupid!
We can see the results of the CoL’s **anti-capitalist** policies in their huge list of failures, blunders and cock-ups.
They can’t even GOVERN. Instead, they **pretend to** by creating hundreds of “working groups” and committees that will amount to *nothing*.
( Sorry, Ed – should have kept the post Peters-specific. Anyway…… )
You would have to wonder whether all those Laywers that help set up his latest Foundation would agree with his bullshit on Capitalism.
As it happened: Jacinda Ardern says ‘honour and a privilege’ to form next Government as Winston Peters goes left

Peters does like the sound of his own voice. He twists the truth to suit his narrative. See his speech announcing the COL agreement and making it clear to voters any deficiencies in what is to come are nothing to do with NZ First.
Winestone is the most arrogant nasty person to ever ‘grace’ parliament benches. He actually says what ever he wants, and no does actually mean yes at times as far as he is concerned. He is a disgrace to the country. Vindictive mouthy corrupt politician I am a retired person but I would rather sleep in a ditch than vote for that total bastard.
NZ First Leader Winston Peters has claimed the World Famous Huka Lodge near Taupo has been sold to Chinese Buyers and said John Key had a hand in smoothing the process.

Not only did he tell lies he was also pushing racism for political gain.
Keep them coming.
After been groomed by Rob Muldon, look how far Whinestone has fallen!
He might have been PM along time ago and now he has snowballs chance!
He only has himself to blame for a wasted chance!
Oh! Dear, how sad! Fuck NZ was lucky there!
Googling “Winston Peters lies” is a fruitful experience. Tim Murphy’s piece on the superannuation payment court case updated on 31-12-19 is worth a read. https://www.newsroom.co.nz/2019/11/11/901678/to-these-civil-servants-words-matter-mr-peters
Then on the same subject DPF summarised the bullshit in his https://www.kiwiblog.co.nz/2019/11/winstons_lies_unravel_in_court.html post:
….”Winston said it was “demonstrably false” he repaid $18,000 and that it was “way less” than that. He repaid $17,936.43 which is 99.6% of $18,000
Winston said the over-payments likely started in 2013/14. They started in 2010
Winston said in 2017 he asked to speak to the original staffer but she no longer worked there. In fact she worked in the same office in the same role.
Winston claimed he paid interest on his under-payments. He didn’t.
Winston claimed his payment was abated and he didn’t received his full super. In fact he was paid the full rate.
Winston claimed MSD could not resolve how the “mistake” happened. In fact MSD said it was because he declared he was single.
Winston claimed his form was incomplete as he had not ticked a box on his current relationship but in fact he has declared he was separated
Winston claimed the form had been altered. It had not.
Winston claimed the staffer he dealt with in 2020 was “very senior”. She wasn’t. She was a standard case manager.”….
Whinestone did not rate a senior management person!
Only got an ordainary case manager!
Oh dear how the mighty have fallen!
…….”The rules are simple: they lie to us, we know they’re lying, they know we know they’re lying, but they keep lying to us, and we keep pretending to believe them.”…….

The Owen Glen Donation that Winston Peter’s lied about for months in which his pier’s in Parliament centured him and let him off the hook by being hit
With a wet bus ticket.
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10529658 I have always wondered if he did it again what would happen but he seems to have friends in high places.
This lie was this year but nothing worries Winston when comes to bending the truth. The antiisamophobic strain is also present in NZ’s Political Culture most recent Election, NZ First recieved the third largest share of the vote, turning it in toKing maker of sorts. The Party run by veteran Political Maverick Winston Peters prides himself on a “rigorous and strictly applied Immigration Policy ” which would cap migrants at 10,000 a year down from 65,000 in 2017.

It has not been below 50,000 since Peter’s has been Deputy Prime Minister.
Susan Couch….wheres the money peters? Cnut.
Wonder how her health is theese days, Ithink she’s still with us today?
The Todd Barclay tapes Winston went on and on about he had the texts to make Bill English resign as Prime Minister and lied so many times in Parlament the deceitful prick was all piss and wind that could not produce any evidence.

Winston Peter’s is the first to complain and issue legal proceedings but he hides behind Parliamentary Privilege when defaming others ,just aliar and crybaby when can’t get his own way.
Winstone Peter’s creates tax breaks for backers of all whether tracks
https://i.stuff.co.nz/sport/racing/104046573/winston-peters-changes-tax-rules-for-racing-industry-that-backed-nz-first
Then Sir Patrick and Lady Hogan take out full page Ad backing NZ First at the General Election without Peter’s knowing.
Then we have in 1999 the lies about the helicopter hired from Philip Vela that he tried to insinuate was just used for travel when it was being used on the campaign trail, Winston denied this until it was revealed that he wanted to paint the helicopter in NZ First colours black and white.
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10540757
And his glorious mob of older want a barrof the fact he tells lies to gain votes and has been doing it all of his political life.
Winston Peters is a fucking prick really, when has the prick ever been humble in anything he has done or said.
The fiasco’s mentioned above, one can’t help thinking that the prick invents true or false accusations against his opponents to grab media attention when he is not in the limelight !!
Sorry, but I see him as very nasty vindictive prick..?
The biggest threat Winston poses is that he distracts some people from the most evil and dangerous leader in our countries history – Ardern.
How will Winestone, or any Party for that matter, get any media attention with the Royal wedding coming up and the 1st child of NZ as flower girl? It’s going to be vomit inducing so I’ll make sure I have plenty of buckets handy!
Peter’s confirms Dot Com visit.
https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=11201470
This after Dot Com accused the GCSB of spying on him and Winston Peter’s saying John Key had to be spying on Dot Com to know about his visit
Winston Peters ‘not sorry at all’ for labelling journalist ‘psycho’

Winston Peters echoes Donald Trump blasting ‘fake news’ in social media video
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/politics/2019/11/winston-peters-echoes-donald-trump-blasting-fake-news-in-social-media-video.html
“Winston Peters is taking a page out of Donald Trump’s book by blasting “fake news” and “hypocritical” New Zealand politics in a social media video.
“Fake news is not good enough,” Peters, the Deputy Prime Minister and New Zealand First leader, said in the video posted on Friday as he travels to Japan for the G20 Foreign Ministers’ meeting.”
Winston Peters pledges support for NZME’s proposed purchase of Stuff
https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/politics/2019/12/winston-peters-pledges-support-for-nzme-s-proposed-purchase-of-stuff.html
“Peters, the Deputy Prime Minister, also launched an attack on the current state of journalism in New Zealand, saying it’s “not trending well”.
The New Zealand First leader confirmed in a press conference that he has been lobbied by NZME – the owner of the New Zealand Herald and Newstalk ZB – to further its chances. “
” I wasn’t asleep..I was in deep contemplation”
Liar.
I confess to having voted for Winston Peters and inadvertantly helped put Labour into government. I voted for NZF because of promises that Winston Peters made before the election. He did not keep those promises and I hold that against him. He will never get my vote again and hope he retires. In my opinion Winston Peters is a miserable, deceitfull person who should be held to account for his apparent illegal financial activities.
Any President of a Political Party would resign if they had to sign off paper agreeing that the books were in order and up to date without having seen them or know how much money the party had. Well that’s what Lester Gray did and then let the media know what he was not happy with that also create problems in his health.
https://i.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/116292442/nz-first-president-resigns-after-refusing-to-sign-2019-financial-reports-for-moral-reasons
Why would any Leader put that on the President of a Party like NZ First if they weren’t trying to game the political system and had form of doing the same a few years before.
