Editorial: Rules must control abuse of privilege - 14-Mar-2005

Not for the first time in his long career under parliamentary protection Winston Peters has used his privilege in a way that must be of concern to anyone with a sense of fairness and decency. Last week in Parliament Mr Peters took it upon himself to accuse a man of paedophilia on what turned out to be the flimsiest of connections. The man, Jim Peron, who owns a bookshop in Auckland, had previously owned one in San Francisco where a group calling itself the "North American Man Boy Love Association" used to hold its meetings. Mr Peron says the group was using the shop when he bought it but he soon became "uncomfortable" about the arrangement and asked them to move on. But by the time he put that explanation into the public arena, the airwaves were alive with his character assassination. Read the full story/Visit the site - NZ Herald

The Whole Truth by Jim Peron - 11-Mar-2005

There is no way that someone can adequately express the horror that is inflicted on a person when the worst allegations possible are levelled on the floor of parliament. Winston Peters did that to me and he made my life a living hell. Last night I got some sleep for the first time since this started, not much, but some. I've eaten a bit as well but my appetite hasn't returned yet. I'll call that the Winston Diet.

Jim Peron Interviewed On Peters Parlt. Allegations - 10-Mar-2005

Scoop has comprehensive coverage of this story, including an interview with Jim Peron and some speculation about its origins. It would seem that like many other people, Peron has fallen out with Lindsay Perigo (who enthusiastically welcomed him in 2002) over some factional dispute, but Scoop doesn't favour Peron's allegation that Perigo is behind Peters' claims. This includes a link to the BFM interview with Jim Peron Read the full story/Visit the site - Scoop
