Hosking is likely seen by quite a few as the voice of New Zealand’s far right

Has Hosking ever had much good to say about any politician or public figure who did not appear to be a blatantly right wing Nat?
But to be fair to Hosking, why has NZ given Turkey’s dictator and wanna be head of a new Ottoman Empire more fodder for his hateful PR?

IMO as a centrist thinker, it wasn’t a good enough excuse that NZ wanted to maintain Gallipoli access

Erdogan has threatened NZers and Ozzies
IMO all New Zealanders should have been advised to exit, esp anyone attached to the Diplomatic Corps, or to NZ or any other military (w military aircraft on standby to evacuate)

His overtly threatening behaviour & overt seeding of hate currently makes Turkey a v dangerous place
I don’t think Winston’s visit was a good idea either. You can’t reason with any man who is effectively an ethically bankrupt dictator - wherever they might hail from.

The election in Turkey is for show.

I can understand Ardern/Peters are doing their best to exercise kindness.
God bless them for it

But I was in Europe w Canadian Defense Force when plane I was on, was called to Iran to help evacuate Americans in 1980

Don’t underestimate the viciousness of dictators mad for power
