Correct Winston... we want our DEMOCRACY back!!
You must be doing something right Winston.....it's stirring the pot a little !!! NZ FIRST❤
Sorry but David lost my vote with his refusal to stand up for the rights and freedoms of kiwis during the mandates. What is the definition of libertarian? Personal freedom. Don’t give me that BS about people at the protest causing trouble .. there are always trouble makers esp when you have that many people together in one spot, it’s inevitable. He lost a brilliant opportunity to show nz that he really walks the talk. Disappointing to say the least.

That ladies comment about her five granchildren is real Sean. My son and his wife won't send their daughter to school unless this is cleaned up. They plan to homeschool when she gets to school age if needed. I respect their decision. This is not the way to run a country. We also currently have some schools using substandard methods to teach reading which is creating unnecessary struggles for many children, while everyone pretends to care about children's mental health. The current Minister of Education acknowledges this but refuses to do anything about it. Parents have had enough.
"The tail is wagging the dog before the dog is even out of the pound!" Winnie summing up Seymour. 😂
This government has to go and we need all the right parties to work together for the benefit of all New Zealanders... there is no room for petty squabbling! They do not need to be in a coalition with Peters but his support in the house would be of great value. David needs to learn to put aside his personal attitude for the good of us all.

David allowed labour to trample our rights with no resistance, he helped them! ACT are decent fiscally, but freedoms and culture are more important, ACT supports the lgbt agenda, more immigration, and no entrenched Bill of Rights!

Such b/s if they needed Winston to form government they'd embrace him with open arms!-They'd grovel to Winston!
Just kick Labour, Greens AND National out. I'd rather ACT and NZF work together to lead our country than those other 🤡's. 🤣🤣🤣
Just to remind everyone. This isn't the first time David Seymor has acted like this. David Seymor last year stated that he would need to be the finance minister as he seems to think they people who vote for ACT want him for this reason. David thinks he has the control and power. Even when Luxon told him no, David Seymor stated that would likely change if he went into a coalition. Is this not exactly like what Winston Peters did?
What does Seymour believe in full term abortion, supports transgender, lockdowns, jabs . if you don’t take the jab , or full in the census no job no benefits

Just like jacinda his true colors are showing, can't trust him.
Its worth remembering that in these elections many voters are not so concerned about the BS that is being bantered around about policies especialy the labour patry's voter candy, the real issue that is on most kiwis minds is the absolute shocking way that the government, & that includes all parties, treaded the freedom movement that camped out on the partiment grounds back in Feb2022. We were against the mandates & the driconian way that the Jacinda led labour party treated its people.,. The police brutality & the shocking remarks coming out of labour party members plus the, anti the people, MSM spin BS.This is what we the people are now most concered about at the Oct 2023 elections. That the whole left labour led block is completely eradicated out of parliment.
Seymour needs to pull his head in with Winston. Next govt should be for the good the people. Big egos and self interest has no place
ACT is a Act,
nz first is better than act anyday, act will be as controlling as the ones we vote out, in fact maybe worse with its slash and burn politics and its the poor that will suffer while Seymour kisses the elites butts as usual. Its sickening they way right and left govern.
New Zealand first forever
Invite Don Brash on to give an opinion on what the mystery issue is that David Seymour has with Winston Peters. Brash talks to both of them.
Seamore needs to get his Ego in order
Well I for one I'm voting for nzf
If Seymour needs Winston to shoe-horn him and Luxon into power, he'd crawl over broken glass to ask him.
What a pathetic attitude for David to adopt, allowing a personality clash to come between the politics of this country!😖 If his piffy attitude causes the Labour Party to get back in for some strange reason ( like offering Winston to side with them) then god help Seymour that’s all I can say! 😡
Hahaha "Tova O'Brian... she has written something useful" Well, I guess there is a first time for anything.

Polls are indicating a 2-party C-right coalition, with NZF only on a rising and falling tide, and nudging towards the threshold. Same pattern as last election. Slight bump because of the delayed comeback. With plenty of rumours circulating.
Winnie talks the centrist, balanced talk well. Sounds sensible but with a keen eye for doing as little as possible. DS has a very real sense of the upheaval that is necessary to actually cut through the pandering to populism from all sectors, trim the sails and start tacking into the headwinds of current account deficit, ballooning debt, bloated and inefficient govt services, de-woking the country, putting the treaty genie back in the bottle, protecting the public from criminals, i.e. putting responsibility back on individuals. Winnie has had his chance and he wasted that with largely unmonitored spending. Outrage is the type of energy necessary to make that shift, to define the problems and chart a path out of this mess. Luxton is just as likely to look at the big data and sell our infrastructure projects to China, rather than make demands on NZers to lift their game. This is likely worse long term than Doolittle Winnie.
David hates Winston because of many years of Winston being a duplicitous old bastard, end of!
Seeemore Butt is panicking! Defense, obtuse and scared of the little old man from the north.
This is way better than tv
PSS: good riddance co - racist governance !!!💀⚔️🕊️
Listening to Seymour today just cemented my vote for Mr Peters - David definitely has small mans syndrome, he went off like an emotional old women with PMS today at Winston and at you Sean... This is not the first time he has done this - If he disagrees with someone he berates them and tries to shut them down, that is not leader material and if ACT had any sense, they would kick him to the curb, I won't vote for them with him there - I observed him over the mandate issue and how he conversed with the public on his social media platforms, the guy is a narcissist and he keeps going on about trust which is laughable as he definitely can not be trusted - He's a snake and incredibly dangerous, I've never felt this about a NZ Politician before, but he is not a good person, there's something very wrong with Seymore.
You know sometimes I really enjoy you/your show (and sometimes you really rark me up 😂). Good show. 😊
I would like to see labor and national parked. They need to get real about what's good for New Zealand 🇳🇿, so time out in the political naughty corner is necessary.

as to what we should vote for, that should be policies that benefit the whole country, that make our lives better, policies that don't hinder the advancement of business, and quality of affordable life, any party that thinks selling us out, selling our assets that give the country an income. we as voter need to think as the country as a whole not individually.
What did Winston actually do to this country compared with Ardern or Key .
We vote for parties not leaders..they come and go
David never said he wouldn't be in a coalition with Winston peters. He said peter is a hard man to work with but if he has to, he has to.

Why would anyone vote National if you understand that our Democracy is under fire it seems woman are being cancelled and are being stopped speaking our minds in public and co governance is way too early for our young country to do this it can and may happen later when we have more Te Reo speakers in the wider community. Because those are the things that will happen if you vote National.

What an interview. Today was a watershed moment for viewers of the Platform. We see the gorilla in all its glory. Act had risen as National fell. Now National is ascending, Act is falling. It’s nothing to do with NZF directly but a major tactical error from ACT in taking the middle ground for granted. NZF didn’t and as we saw/heard NZF is in many ways the natural friend of middle NZ. Seymore can bitch and moan all day, but early on nailed his manifesto onto the National campaign.. major mistake as we saw from todays Herald headline.. National and Act can govern ALONE. That wasn’t a typo but as they are seen. ACT are a wart on Nationals rump and not an independent political identity. Today Peters and NZF rose from the ashes.. we are in for a terrific campaign.

Seymour is playing political chess. Whilst the two Chris’s play draughts. I imagine Seymour were he to ever get the lion share of the vote would be a tyrant much like Margret thatcher was. But I’m voting for him anyway because tyrant in the making is better than woke apartheid
Thanks Jabcinda wokology dont work !!
A combination of modernity and Postmodernity.
David Seymour is too emotional. He’s got an agenda and I don’t think it’s in NZs favour. I don’t trust a politician who has vehement emotional outbursts. National is just a blue Labour Party, they are just as woke, just as committed to co-governance, just as committed to the destruction of our cheap energy systems (ie, following the crazy ideology of the climate crisis pushers, who incidentally don’t have the backing of the vast majority of experts in this field). National won’t stand up and be honest in the so called “culture” wars. Their leaders is insipid, uninspiring, possibly a WEF acolyte and like a wet fish. Get a backbone Mr Luxon. Winston Peters values sovereignty, free speech and fairness. Simple and wholesome, none of other parties come close.
Hhahaha 'so you're saying he actually owes you'. Oh sean, you really are a very shallow person.
Yep Winston is the great Chariton trust him at your peril, how many times do we need to see him turn his back on his promises before we learn?

Id vote Winston if he gets 5% If not its Act 🎉
An elerly senior solicitor firmly believed that if you 'Say it you can forget it, however if you write it you must remember it'. Winston Peters time of forgetting what he says should be over. If he is not going to help Labour into parliament or support Labour in any way whatsoever. Be be totally honest & transparent Winston Peters needs to take an oath and put his promise to voters in writing, then sign off the oath that he will not support Labour any anyway after the next election. If he does not do that, I will also absoutely believe that once again Winston Peters can not be trusted.

Peters is all talk and zero action . He proved when he jumped into bed with ardern that he can’t be trusted . Seymore on the other hand actually understands the monumental task ahead to even start turning this sinking ship around . Seymore has no time for peters because he knows peters is trouble and self serving , peters has no time for Seymore because he know Seymore has his number big time .
The issues around winston and why he isnt suitable are 1.corruption he accepted payment of $100,000 for his lawyers fees from a labour party supporter at a when he was negotiating to form a coalition with Labour then he lied and denied it. 2. He gave us the current Labour government. 3. He never takes responsibility for what he does or answer difficult questions. Listening to him being interviewed is like watching someone wrestle with an eel. Personally I dont think he is as bad as Labour or the greens but he is still an undesirable politician
