Description: 'The Politician' cartoon strip. Refers to a member's bill proposed by Labour MP Darren Hughes' to lower the legal blood alcohol limit from 80mg of alcohol per 100ml of blood (0.08) to 50mg (0.05). National Party MPs may be allowed to exercise a conscience vote if a Labour bill to lower the drink-driving blood alcohol limit is pulled from the ballot. If drawn from the ballot and passed into law, the bill would effectively trump the government's decision not to lower the limit but to opt instead for two years of research.
