Right fit

Written by 

A mate of the Hound reckons suggestions that possibly NZ’s longest-serving public benefit bludger -- Deputy PM and Foreign Minister Winston Peters – be sent to North Korea to negotiate with that country’s leader Kim Jong Un is a good move.

Not only would it mean he would be out of NZ for a while; your canine crusader’s pal suggests that Peters and Kim will get on perfectly well as both are vertically challenged, megalomaniac autocrats who like to drink and party all night and believe they have a God-given right to rule their parties for life. Sounds like a perfect fit.
