The Deputy Prime Minister doesn't think Simon Bridges or Paula Bennett will survive the Jami-Lee Ross saga, but says it will take a while before heads roll.
The National Party leader has stayed staunch in the face of media attention after a week of accusations from rogue MP Ross.
Winston Peters told The Weekend Collective that the Party will wait before it acts.
"They'll want to put distance between this event before they move on. First of all, Paula Bennett, and then [Bridges]. That's the way it usually happens. You pick off the weakest one first and then you go for the top one."
Peters says it's ironic that the first use of the waka jumping legislation might go to Simon Bridges, despite the National Party's opposition to the Bill.
