But is it true?
Winston Peters alleged in Parliament today that TVNZ reporter Brent Fraser impersonated a policeman to get the story on Winston’s free dinner.
This is shocking if true and will be interesting to see what happens. However no MP has made more false allegations than Winston so it may all be hearsay. Who remembers the WINZ Mercedes Benz scandal just before the 1999 election?
UPDATE: TVNZ and Bill Ralston have denied the allegations, and says the entire thing is news to them. Peters is refusing to repeat outside Parliament and won’t provide any proof. Don’t hold your breath waiting for it.
