STRINGING THEM ALONG.

Winston Peters has revealed he’s applying lessons learnt as a teenage lothario in his latest dealings with the media.

New Zealand’s new Deputy Prime Minister has wasted no time in taking aim at the media just days into the job, accusing them of taking bribes and claiming he’s “at war” with them.

Peters has long had a reputation for clashing with media, and in an exclusive interview with The Whakataki Times, he has revealed it’s a strategic approach inspired by his early love life.
