Answer

Winston Peters left Parliament after failing to reach the 5% threshold in 2008. Peters was the leader of the New Zealand First Party, which received 4.2% of the vote in the 2008 general election. As a result, the party did not win any seats in Parliament and Peters was forced to leave his role as Deputy Prime Minister.
