Luxon standing by Andrew Bayly who told worker to 'f*** off'

Christopher Luxon continues to stand by his Minister of Commerce who allegedly told a worker to F off during a site visit. The business employee says that Mr Bayly told him to "f*** off" and repeatedly called him a loser, making an 'L' sign with his fingers on his forehead. The employee says he was left feeling "degraded, embarrassed and deeply disrespected" during the visit in early October. Addressing media at the post-Cabinet press conference this afternoon, the Prime Minister said that while Andrew Bayly's behaviour was "inappropriate and wrong" he's apologised and shown genuine contrition. Deputy political editor Craig McCulloch spoke to Lisa Owen.
