Winston Peters has found a strong ally in his bid to disestablish Auckland Transport. \xa0

The New Zealand First leader's proposed a bill to give the city's Council full control of the agency.\xa0

AT currently operates somewhat independency. \xa0

It already has the backing of Mayor Wayne Brown, who says anything putting control of Auckland\u2019s transport back in Aucklanders' hands is a good thing.\xa0

Peters told Mike Hosking that if common sense prevails, it will go hosing through Parliament.\xa0

He said that AT was set up in 2009 and has been a serious failure, with massive complains continuing year after year.\xa0
