It's hard to find any supporters for Trevor Mallard's move against Winston Peters.
The Speaker of the House has trespassed Peters from Parliament for two years, - along with former National MP Matt King - after they visited the anti-mandate occupation in February.

He adds it gives Peters great publicity, and potentially a launching pad for a comeback in the Tauranga by-election.
