Full house for Winston

Winston Peters spoke for over an hour at Shoesmith Hall in Warkworth.


It was standing room only when NZ First leader and Northland MP Winston Peters came to town last month, as part of a national tour to boost party support.

Mr Peters mainly talked about national issues, lamenting the downturn in manufacturing in New Zealand and the loss of those jobs to overseas factories.

He was coy about solving local issues however, only saying people in Rodney shouldn’t keep voting for National if they want progress on issues like the Hill Street intersection and Rodney’s role in the Supercity.
