Rnz article screenshot of Peter's rhetoric. Sections mentioning allegiance, privilege, formal bond, responsibility and questioning the right of permanent residents to have a say highlighted. Text follows: Announcing his new policy on Sunday, party leader Peters said voting "should be a privilege of those who have sworn allegiance to New Zealand, and who have made the commitment to make New Zealand their home and their future". "If you haven't made that commitment or sworn that allegiance, we are happy to let you live here permanently, but why should you get a say in how this country is run or governed?" he said. "New Zealand First will restore the basic democratic principle that the right to decide New Zealand's future belongs to New Zealand citizens." Peters said permanent residence granted rights to live, work, study and build a life in New Zealand, but citizenship "is the formal bond of allegiance, belonging, responsibility, and democratic authority".
