ACT deny claims of leaking Winston Peters' super details

From First Up, 5:51 am on 23 July 2020

Delusional, sleazy and insane - those are the words that the people who Winston Peters has accused of leaking his superannuation details have used to describe Mr Peters claims. The New Zealand First leader and Deputy Prime Minister yesterday used Parliamentary privilege to reel off a list of names he claims were involved in what he called "an ACT inspired hit job". According to Mr Peters, fomer National Party Press-Secretary Rachel Morton heard ministers Anne Tolley and Paula Bennett disscusing the case, and then told her former partner and ACT leader David Seymour - who spread the information further. All named have denied the claims, including ACT's David Seymour, who spoke with Indira Stewart.
