‘Snivelling wokesters’ won’t like this, says Winston Peters, as he names future ferries

Rail Minister Winston Peters has stirred up a bit of controversy by breaking with a long-standing tradition and naming the new Interislander ferries in a way that has drawn criticism. The names, chosen by Peters, reflect his outspoken views, with one comment about "snivelling wokesters" causing a stir. This move highlights Peters' penchant for provocative statements and his disregard for political correctness. The naming of the ferries, though seemingly minor, underscores Peters' influence in the political sphere and his ability to provoke debate.
