Winston Raymond Peters PC (born 11 April 1945) is a New Zealand politician and leader of New Zealand First which he founded in 1993. Peters has had a successful and turbulent political career since first becoming a Member of Parliament in the National Party win of 1978. Peters first served as a Cabinet Minister when Jim Bolger led the National Party to victory in 1990, before Bolger sacked him in 1991. As leader of New Zealand First, he held the balance of power after the 1996 election and formed a coalition with National, securing the positions of Deputy Prime Minister and Treasurer. However, the coalition dissolved in 1998 following the replacement of Bolger by Jenny Shipley as Prime Minister.
In 1999 New Zealand First returned to Opposition before entering into a government again with the Labour Party in 2005, in which he served as the Minister of Foreign Affairs. On 29 August 2008 he stood down as a Minister pending a police investigation into a funding scandal involving Peters and New Zealand First.
The Right Honourable (The Rt Hon. or Rt Hon.) is an honorific style traditionally applied to certain persons and to certain collective bodies in the post colonial empire of the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, some other Commonwealth realms, the Anglophone Caribbean, Mauritius and occasionally elsewhere.
"The Right Honourable" is added as a prefix to the name of various collective entities such as:
A prime minister is the most senior minister of cabinet in the executive branch of government, often in a parliamentary or semi-presidential system. In many systems, the prime minister selects and may dismiss other members of the cabinet, and allocates posts to members within the government. In most systems, the prime minister is the presiding member and chairman of the cabinet. In a minority of systems, notably in semi-presidential systems of government, a prime minister is the official who is appointed to manage the civil service and execute the directives of the head of state.
In parliamentary systems fashioned after the Westminster system, the prime minister is the presiding and actual head of government and head of the executive branch. In such systems, the head of state or the head of state's official representative (i.e. the monarch, president, or governor-general) usually holds a largely ceremonial position, although often with reserve powers.
The prime minister is often, but not always, a member of parliament and is expected with other ministers to ensure the passage of bills through the legislature. In some monarchies the monarch may also exercise executive powers (known as the royal prerogative) that are constitutionally vested in the crown and may be exercised without the approval of parliament.

It's a staggering statistic - over the past two years, there's been a 2000 percent total increase in net migration: from just 2000 to 56,000. New Zealand First leader Winston Peters this morning joined Paul Henry to discuss the figures, which show migration numbers have now hit new records for eight consecutive months. "If you are concerned with how you can provide hospital services, school services and housing, particularly in Auckland, then this is an absolute disaster," says Mr Peters. He explains how the "net migration to Auckland is 34,000, who will need 11,000 houses". "We were built on the back of focused migration," Mr Peters says. "People came here because they had a job, a home to go…but now it is utterly unfocused - they're coming from everywhere." Watch the video for the...

Winston Peters says the Prime Minister is making a huge mistake by pushing ahead with his desire to see a new flag.
Over the final two weeks of the campaign I'll be interviewing the major party finance spokesmen, including National's Bill English, Labour's David Parker, New Zealand First's Winston Peters and Green Co-Leader Russel Norman. Here's the first one recorded with Winston Peters, in which he argues for a new monetary policy, foreign buyer controls and migration limits. He began by arguing that New Zealand needed to expand its export wealth through higher value exports. "When your economic, your education, your immigration, your research, all your other policies are not focused on that, then you slide down the OECD, and there's no chance of stopping this slide unless you get the fundamentals right," he said.
