New Zealand First leader Winston Peters has reaffirmed his party’s refusal to work with the Labour Party, stating the position was set well before the last general election and remains unchanged.
In a tweet, Peters said that in 2022—more than a year ahead of the 2023 vote—his party had already ruled out any coalition arrangement with Labour, and he dismissed speculation suggesting otherwise.
“Four years ago in 2022, a full year before the last election, we ruled out working with the Labour Party. We did that because the left are full of woke self confessed communists who would turn our country into a basket case. Nothing has changed. In fact they are even worse. No, we won’t do a deal with Labour or their Marxist and separatist mates,” he wrote.
He criticised Labour and aligned political groups, accusing them of holding ideological positions he opposes, and argued that legacy media attention on the issue was misplaced.
Peters also pushed back on ongoing questions about potential cooperation, labelling such claims as “mischief making” and “scaremongering,” and urged a stronger focus on issues he says matter most to New Zealanders rather than what he described as repetitive political speculation.
He forgot mention the Marxist left bias media.
Which i hear this morning on ZB accusing NZF as racists and race baiting. What utter CRAP.
I don’t like or trust Peters at this point but I don’t wholly disagree with him either. National are truly awful, Labour will be even worse. That said, time people started voting for other options than these God awful party’s.

An honest politician is as unthinkable as an honest burglar.
