Winston’s only virtue is that he could tell a few yarns at dinner

It is kind of Mr Peters to say that am I am not a politician but rather someone who would make a good dinner guest,” said ACT Leader Dr Jamie Whyte.

“Parliament does not need any more politicians. What parliament needs is people who can think logically.”

“I realise it makes him uncomfortable that I can add up sums. That’s why I know even if he does not that his promises now cost more than Labour and the Greens put together.”

“I look forward to sitting in Parliament and if Winston should make it back this time perhaps he might join me for lunch and get acquainted with rationality and arithmetic.”

ACT Leader Dr Jamie Whyte.
