A new Sony kids movie, based on the popular book Peter Rabbit, is being boycotted by some parents around the world over a scene which they say shows bullying of someone with allergies. In the movie a character is allergic to blackberries and is pelted with them, choking on the ground until he can get his EpiPen injected. A petition has been started to ban the movie over the scene. We speak to Allergy NZ's chief executive Mark Dixon about the outrage, which he says is justified.
