Key Challenged to Debate Northland

New Zealand First Leader and Northland by-election candidate Rt Hon Winston Peters is challenging Prime Minister John Key to a debate in Northland.

“John Key is the pseudo candidate up here. He’s on the hoardings and he’s up here leading the charge after ignoring the Northland electorate for years,” says Mr Peters.

“John Key spends a lot of time talking about me, let’s see how good he is face to face.

“If it is not Mr Key holding the National candidate’s hand it’s a Cabinet Minister or a National MP.

“They are so worried about their unknown, underperforming candidate they tried to put one of their MPs in his seat at a debate.

“Now Mr Key has resorted to blackmailing Northlanders, saying his promises mean nothing if National is not re-elected. A government that promises and fails to deliver will surely be held to account.

“Northlanders will see through his shallowness, they know they have been neglected and it’s time for a change, so they will send National a message on March 28.”
