The Herald reports:
Deputy Prime Minister and NZ First Leader Winston Peters had a litigious start to the year, attracting legal threats from the band Chumbawumba and former Australian Foreign Minister Bob Carr.
But months later, neither Peters himself, nor his party, have received any indication that Chumbawumba or Carr plan to take legal action against him, suggesting their earlier antics this year were just empty tubthumping.
Good to see the Herald follow up on this. There were scores of stories on the tub thumping threats with Chris Hipkins hysterically suggesting Peters should be sacked as Foreign Minister. Maybe media should report less on someone saying they will sue, and more on if they actually sue.
