Thomas Coughlan: NZ Herald political editor on Chris Luxon and Winston Peters' clash over US tariffs - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

The Prime Minister's dismissing suggestions of tension with his deputy over US tariffs and trade. 

Winston Peters last week said Chris Luxon was premature in calling other leaders - and yesterday labelled some language used around trade 'hysterical'. 

But Luxon says all the Ministers responsible, which includes Peters, are aligned on the fact a trade war would be bad for New Zealand.

NZ Herald political editor Thomas Coughlan says the trade issue has generated a bipartisan response, but it's unwise to draw too much attention to it.
