Context; Tim Groser - in Mexico (Cancun) for renewed climate change talks (after Copenhagen at the end of 2009) - hit back last night at vocal Labour and Green critics whom he says have "no understanding of what the negotiation is about".

Description: 'The Politician' cartoon strip. The Politician tell his aide that he is attending an overseas meeting 'because it's important for our trade, not because it's being held in the Caribbean'. Yet when questioned, he has 'no idea' of what the meeting is about. Refers to the visits in May 2013 of the Foreign Affairs Minister, Murray McCully, to the United States and the Caribbean, as well as to the trips overseas by the Minister of Trade, Tim Groser. The reasons for the meetings, while centred around trade and overseas relationships, seemed nebulous, and the locations for the meetings were not unpleasant. Are they 'junkets'?

The poem has a verse that reads 'No more yellow peril Or reds under the bed Now capitalist China Is my banker instead'.

He says it seems to be coming from think-tanks and some academics, but does not think it is shared at the top levels of domestic politics. If it is, he says New Zealand would have no choice but to leave the TPP talks.
