Winston Peters, Shane Jones again attack migrant Green MP Ricardo Menéndez March Rather than apologise to Ricardo Menéndez March, the deputy prime minister has indicated he will seek to update Parliament's standing orders.

Winston Peters can't stop an MP from saying Aotearoa in the House of Parliament and he can't stop me or anyone else from using it everywhere else!

Tensions at Waitangi have not been quelled by Luxon and his ministers meeting iwi leaders.

The next few days are going to be interesting. #aopol

Maybe with Luxon still thinking like he's a CEO these coalition talks need to involve team building exercises. Any suggestions? #AoPol

NewsHub poll suggest Greens will get 19 seats and Labour 35

1News poll suggest Greens will get 17 seats and Labour 35

Just like to point out that the Greens have ~50% of the seats that Labour does in both the 1News and NewsHub polls.

Perhaps one day we can break the duopoly.
