Date: 2001

By: Tremain, Garrick, 1941-; Otago daily times (Newspaper)

Reference: H-651-001/023

Description: 23 cartoons on political and social subjects published in the Otago Daily Times. Europeans clean-up after the Americans' bloody their hands with oil deals Rural NZ angry following power price increases. Michael Cullen and Winston Peters play the sweet tune of "superannuation" leading the public to their demise. Swiss Government permit their army to carry guns when peacekeeping for the first time. Room for only one dairy industry trader in NZ's global outreach. A choice must be made between the NZ Dairy Group and Kiwi William Hague loses the British election to Tony Blair. Michael Cullen reassures the public the political parties can reach a concensus over superannuation. Public confidence is low over Air NZ's ability to make good management decisions following their purchase of Ansett. Winston Peters climbs back into the picture of superannuation ready to kick it around as a political football. The Labour Party woo Winston Peters over their new super scheme. Air NZ's purchase of Ansett seen as the white elephant that will end up grounding the Air NZ fleet. Publicans question the significance of second hand smoke in bars compared with second hand beer. Public cynicism of Michael Cullen's proposed Superannuation scheme. Laila Harre places the issue of paid parental leave at the Prime Minister's doorstep demanding it be dealt with now. The Public Health system is reeling from ongoing restructuring and unable to deal their basic functions. Public opinion that the lowering of the drinking age leads to a lack of sober youth to fight for the country. A new ever demanding creature has been given birth by the government - venture capital. Michael Cullen hails the budget as 'prosperity in our time'. Michael Cullen disparagingly hopes that the Prime Minister is not playing fast and loose with the country's money. Airline accidents impact on New Zealanders. Local council members seek for youth to be represented on council. Could this be Jim Anderton's next big idea, the people's airforce with armed troops flying hang gliders? NZ taxpayers show their displeasure with funding the Prime Minister's settlement for defamation in the Yelash case. Restuaranteer's reactions to the proposed 50% smoke free legislation. Helen Clark tries to make the Green Party seem more palatable to Alliance leader, Jim Anderton. Quantity: 23 photocopy/ies. Physical Description: Photocopies A4 size
