Oh joy. 
He really is one of a kind, virtually indestructible politically apparently. He's now doing his best to cotton on to the loony tunes brigade to some degree while being very, very careful not to venture too far into their territory. Those who have theories about Covid, trans people, & the 'Voices for Freedom movement'
The article asks if he can "ride a freedom wave to parliament" - I sincerely hope NOT.

"Over 30 minutes, Peters was asked about censorship of people who dispute climate change; the WEF; the “propaganda” of the mainstream media; vaccine mandates; what a woman is; how to “bring democratic society back”.
He was asked traditional questions at this campaign event, too – about the cost of living, coalition agreements, and crime. These core issues were the main subject of his speech and were consistent with New Zealand First’s policies.
But compared to previous meetings, they were fewer: Some in the audience had other issues on their minds.
In the early stages of his 17th general election campaign, Winston Peters has drawn growing interest from the self-proclaimed “freedom” movement.
These are people with views that range from rejecting Covid-19 vaccines, dismissing the scientific consensus of climate change, and emphasising what they believe to be the sinister influence of global institutions like the WEF and the WHO."
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
