Taking On Winnie
OPINION: No one messes around with Winston Peters, more so in a general election year.
The Greens also claim the moral high ground on a lot of social issues, but when it comes to crime, they are missing in action.
This old mutt wonders, why? Well, maybe shoplifting and fraud, and certainly not being pro police, are areas where the Greens fade into red – faces that is.
The risk in politics of taking the moral high ground is that sooner or later, closet doors get unlocked and untold snippets of unwanted truth emerge.
The secret is balance – but for the watermelon party, that is a bridge too far.
