We asked the PM if it's farcical to say the Foreign Minister's been racist and keep him. here's what he said

Prime Minister Christopher Luxon has publicly condemned remarks made by Foreign Minister Winston Peters, labeling the comments as racist.

Despite the condemnation, Luxon maintained his confidence in Peters to continue serving as the country's Foreign Minister. When questioned about the apparent contradiction of keeping a minister accused of racism, Luxon stated that the matter is now up to the voters to decide.
