Vindictive bugger isn't he...
In the world of NZ politics one should think very carefully before having a crack at Winston Peters. It appears that he has had his staff digging through David Carter's past a looking for dirt. I have not met David Carter, but I hope he is pure, because if he is not, I get the feeling we are going to hear about it.
The opening salvo in response to (supposedly) breaking Dinnergate, this from yesterdays Question Time;
Rt Hon Winston Peters: Is the Minister prepared to investigate
the fact that the well-known philanthropist and MP David Carter
sold a property to the council for $1.025 million, and that the
council then obtained its full and true value, achieving a price
almost $600,000 less; and what would be the circumstances behind
that in respect of the historic places legislation?
He's shown us classy Winnie, here comes Winnie the nasty.
