He is not alone. Plenty of people find this amusing. And nobody who wants to vote for Peters is dissuaded by the current debacle. Nobody who wants to vote Labour cares about Clark's stance on this either. The Greens will vote Green. Once the "incentives" start to flow there will still be a Labour-led Government come December. Commonsense and good governance seldom ranks higher than 14th in peoples minds.
Most people are sick to their back teeth of Winston. Ogden is sitting in a very small minority...but that's OK. It's his right to. I am glad he has finally confirmed his lack of judgement. In the past I has only suspected it.
At least 94% of the voting population can be sick of Peters and still nothing will change his place on the world stage with Clark, buffoon though he may be.
FYI anonymous I have just returned from 6 weeks in Australia managing two separate groups of people (total number 84) on tours in Queensland - avarge age about 72.
From time to time I checked internet news and brought them up to date with what was happening in NZ. Every time I mentioned the travails of Winston there was general derision.
As far as I could tell there was not one Winston or NZ First supporter on the tours yet these people are his `core constituents'. They all wanted him gone.

Listen to talkback on NewstalkZB sometime when Peters is being discussed.
If enough Labour voters vote strategically for Ron Mark (ex Labour) in Rimutaka, NZ First needs only enough list votes for a second MP that Peters is back Parliament.
I worked at HCC when Ogden was first elected on to the Council. Thank Christ I had left by the time he became Mayor. He is an idiot in search of a village, and it is a sad indictment on the Hutt that he got elected. The man is so far removed from reality it is not funny.
He is not alone.

Pretty decisive I think.
