Date: 1997
By: Scott, Thomas Joseph, 1947-; Evening Post (Wellington, N.Z.)
Reference: H-418-044/064
Description: Political cartoons. The Todd Panel on superannuation threaten to silence Winston Peters with a 'no vote'. News - Bogus psychiatrist practised in the Hutt. Jim Bolger's leadership of the National Party is under threat. New Zealand Police face a major retention of recruits problem. Jim Bolger and Winston Peters present a united front in an effort to attain harmony between arguing MP's Bill English and Neil Kirton. Winston Peters axes Neil Kirton without any decent excuse - it seemed for being a competent MP. All Blacks victory in a game that saw a lot of blood spilt. Ethical dileamas doctors face over sex with patients. The conditions on which Neil Kirton is allowed to stay in the NZ First caucus. Mental Health services abdicate responsibility and release suicidal people back into the care of their distressed families. Winston Peters considers apologising to officials he smeared in the Winebox Inquiry but thinks better of it. Super 12 win at what price to the bodies of the players. Words the public would like to hear the Minister of Health, Bill English, to say. Loss-making mental health services to become standalone business centres. A pictorial explanation of the Winebox Inquiry saga. Neil Kirton irritates Winston Peters again by making comments on the vehicle speedo scam. With the country in an increasing economic crisis Jim Bolger's political leadership fails. Chemists seek a consultancy fee for providing their expertise to the public. Perhaps petrol station attendants will try it next. The Police form a road block in an attempt to halt the RCD virus. Lotto makes their priorities known - wheelchairs for elite athletes but not for children with muscular dystrophy. Farmers take a laid-back some would say irresponsible attitude to the illegal introduction of the rabbit RCD virus into New Zealand and its possible consequences. Quantity: 21 cartoon bromide(s). Physical Description: B5 size bromides.
