"These are taken but would sir care to look at something else?" 26 August 2009
Date: 2009
From: Hubbard, James, 1949-: Digital caricatures and cartoons
Reference: DCDL-0012135
Description: Prime Minister John Key welcomes Pita Sharples, Co-leader of the Maori Party, to a seat in the sun but points him towards a seat that represents 'Foreshore seabed concession' because all the 'Auckland supercity seats' are taken. Refers to the argument about Maori seats on the supercity council which Pita Sharples advocates. The suggestion in the cartoon is that because the Maori Party has already won what can be seen as a concession in the Foreshore and Seabed debate, (a review) they should not expect to get the seats that they want on the supercity council.

Description: Shows two dogs chatting as one of them reads a newspaper which has a headline that reads 'Iwi denied super city seats'. The other dog has a large bandage around its neck which the dog says was put there by humans because his voice was loud, disruptive and upset the neighbours. The first dog comments that he thought they only did that to Maori. Refers to the argument about whether there should be Maori seats on the new Auckland supercity council. The Maori Party (Pita Sharples) wants them, Rodney Hide, leader of ACT has threatened to resign if they get them and the government has to take a compromise position between its two coalition partners.
