Winston Peters, Kingmaker.
Mr Peters appeared on Q+A this morning in a heated interview with host Jack Tame, where he was asked about Ihumatao, a trans-Tasman bubble, coalition partners, cameras on fishing boats, his party’s policies, and stimulating the economy.
[…] “I’m opposed to busting Treaty of Waitangi settlements so that every past settlement is now being reopened – we need one standard of citizenship.
“People in this country are screaming out for a thing called equality,” Mr Peters said.[…]
Mr Peters then referenced Tame’s knowledge of Te Reo.
“Don’t say mm, mm, mm and speak Maori on TV and tell me as though you understand,” Mr Peters said.
“Tena koe,” Tame said in response.
