Episode Details

Winston Peters is rallying New Zealand First with a bold, nationalist message, claiming his party is far more popular than polls suggest and positioning himself as the voice of everyday Kiwis struggling with soaring power bills and grocery costs. He’s mocking Labour’s meager $200 million “future fund,” calling it a joke with no real strategy, and dismissing the India trade deal as economically insignificant. Peters is pushing for economic self-reliance — slashing foreign ownership, boosting exports, and cutting overseas debt — while celebrating New Zealand’s democratic legacy and framing global chaos as a chance for national renewal. He’s urging party members to stay focused, avoid media pressure, and let the leader handle tough questions — because, he insists, the people are the message, and they’re demanding real change, not empty promises.
