Re 12 August issue. When one sees a photo of Winston Peters, one expects to be able to read about the subject matter. Not about the National Party conference for two paragraphs.
The Bay of Plenty Electorate Committee invited Winston to speak and chose the venue, which was packed. Also present were three NZ First Candidates, Ray Dolman Bay of Plenty, Brendan Horan, Tauranga and Kevin Stone, Coromandel none of which rated a mention yet Bridges name was mentioned three times in this article.
Very little was quoted from Winston's speech, and the last three paragraphs were yet again devoted to the National party conference.
I do hope when the National party conference is reported that Brendon Horan is afforded the same respect and has 6 paragraphs devoted to his comments on the said conference.
