You have to hand it to Winston: he is not only the oldest but also the wiliest politician in parliament. He treats those on the left as political cannon fodder and the media in much the same way. Winston has no time for the woke brigade, the DEI nonsense or indeed their utterances about climate change and matters of race. Hence his remarkable rise in the preferred prime minister rankings in the latest Taxpayers’ Union Curia poll: up 4.3 per cent to nearly 13 per cent.
The Greens, Māori Party and Labour have all been on the receiving end of his acerbic tongue, with his political skills far exceeding their abilities. He’s a testament to the old saying ‘you can’t beat experience’. Following the disappearance of those in National with whom Winston did not wish to coalesce, he appears to have found his true home once again. He has already ruled out any accommodation with Labour in 2026.
Both the Greens and the media have recently been the subject of his political acumen and as usual they brought it on themselves. I’m talking about the Benjamin Doyle scandal. The Greens decided they couldn’t defend the indefensible so decided attack was the best way to go: this played right into Winston’s hands.
They asked the prime minister to control his deputy and shut him down. That was never going to happen. But their plea showed their naïvety. Winston was not slow out of the blocks. Having exposed their MP’s deviant behaviour, he proceeded to enlarge on the topic, forcing the Greens into the comedic display from their co-leaders.
Chloe and Marama delivered a statement that was, at best, a charade and, at worst, what they didn’t intend – defend the indefensible. In doing so they managed to throw the entire gay community under the bus, accentuating their lack of political nous. These two co-leaders typify the Green Party as a whole: a cult living in another world. The environment, their raison d’être, is lost.
The media, as usual with their comrades on the left, were complicit in keeping the story hidden. They also felt Winston’s wrath. When woke journalists asked their usual inane questions, what they got in return was a telling off for a dereliction of duty. They stood there like schoolchildren being lectured by the teacher. It was a masterclass by Winston in how to deal with them.
The Greens also felt Winston’s bark when Tamatha Paul suggested getting rid of the police. Winston labelled them anarchists. The irony is, in the light of so-called death threats to their embattled deviant, they asked for police assistance. You can’t make this stuff up.
What all this mayhem shows is voting for the Greens on the basis of the environment is an exercise in futility. They rarely talk about it and when they do their ideas are too wacky to be taken seriously. Their actions, as proven in the Doyle affair, are bizarre and not worthy of consideration. The Greens now bear no relevance to the responsible governance of the country.

And yet their polling never seems to suffer. What does that say about a big percentage of NZers? Go figure!
We expect our representatives in parliament to be well-informed people with regard to economic and social issues so that they have the knowledge base from which to make sensible laws, and to be people of sound character whose moral judgements we can trust (if not always necessarily agree with wholeheartedly). Competence and decency are two words that sum it up well.
The so-called Greens in the NZ parliament fail on both counts. They are would-be hijackers of democracy and sensible governance and should be removed altogether from the corridors of power.
