Description: Accompanying note from cartoonist states 'Wellington City Council's decision to employ unpaid members of the public to monitor its security cameras is an innocent but early indication of how universal surveillance will be managed: citizen on citizen. Training individuals is like herding cats'. Cartoon shows a group of people watching footage from a CCTV camera. Footage is headed 'CCTV footage 0247 - any night, Courtney Place' The screen shows a woman being groped by a hand. The police trainer says to the group 'If this incident were captured on one of your surveillance monitors, what would be your gut reaction?' The responses from members of the group are 'Look at the arse on that thing'?', 'Chop his filthy, groping hand off with a bloody meat cleaver!', 'It looks a whole load more than a cheeky pinch but the real nuts of this crime (or not) is held by the nature of the man and woman's pre-existing relationship.' A screening officer holds a card in his hand stating 'Applicants for CCTV screen monitoring. Answers' He says 'You're all wrong. The female on the monitor has an expired warrant on her car - Dispatch a parking warden immediately!!!' Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).

Description: Commentary from the cartoonist 'There's a strange irony in the way our secret agents and spies have themselves attracted a lot of probing and sniffing by parliament and public. In particular, the current examination of their activities in regards Kim Dotcom'. Following the debacle over the Government Communications Security Bureau's actions in the Kit Dotcom affair, the Bureau came under much unwelcome scrutiny from the media and public.

Description: Shows two figures in front of a computer labelled, 'NSA global monitoring of emails.' Commentary from the artist reads 'Now that we know NSA monitors emails etc across the globe there is at least hope they have picked up Peter Dunne's emails and some action may at last be taken. I say this wryly as the government is doing its best to keep the emails hidden and Peter Dunne in parliament as a safe supporting vote till the next election. Note: in the cartoon I have used the figure 68 instead of 86 purely be mistake. Nevertheless there is a bit of uncertainity around the issue until the actually emails are revealed' Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
