Winston Peters says there is nothing wrong with him using a song by a UK punk band during his State of the Nation speech.

The Spinoff reports Chumbawamba has requested their record label issue a cease and desist order to the New Zealand First leader for playing 'Tubthumping'.

The band says it's odd the refrain 'I get knocked down, but I get up again' is being used by Peters as he barks his bigoted policies during his recent speeches.

Peters says the Spinoff are leftist shills.

"It's a public meeting, we're not using it for any beneficial purpose in terms of making money for ourselves. And so I'm afraid we've got a media outlet that doesn't know what the law is."
