Luxon Criticises Winston Peters For 'Inappropriate Attention-Seeking Comments' Towards Green MPCraig McCullochChristopher Luxon has criticised Winston Peters for making "inappropriate attention-seeking comments" after the foreign minister told a Chinese-born New Zealand MP to "go back to your own country". The prime minister and National Party leader used the occasion to urge voters to support the National Party and said he backs Chinese New Zealanders. "Winston Peters has a long track record of inappropriate attention-seeking comments designed to get the media and other politicians to talk about him instead of the issues Kiwis are facing. Speaking on TVNZ's Breakfast on Thursday, Xu-Nan described Peters' comments as a "desperate attempt to distract" from the coalition's record. "What we want to see is Prime Minister Christopher Luxon actually stepping up and holding his ministers accountable for their behavioural patterns."
