OPINION: Yours truly sees that the political phoenix that is Winston Peters is again trying to make a return to parliament.

Peters recently unveiled NZ First's slogan for this year's election... 'Take our country back'.

I am sure many readers would like Peters to 'take our country back' to September 2017 when he signed up with Labour and started the train wreck of the past 6 years.

While the wily old campaigner would like to downplay his part in creating the mess we now have running the joint, it is actually his fault entirely and this should not be forgotten.
