Date: 2013
From: Hubbard, James, 1949-: Digital caricatures and cartoons

Description: Shows a series of four frames featuring John Key as a talking candle, asking "Do you remember the '70s" and the blackouts, and ending with Key himself extinguished and asking "You don't?" Refers to arguments around the Green and Labour Party's plan to retain state ownership of power companies and to cap prices. The plan was released very close to the government's float of shares in Mighty River Power and sparked a war of words in the media between the two parties. John Key was quoted in the media as saying "Really, these people are taking us back to something we abandoned in the 1970s because people used to sit around candles when all the lights went out." The cartoonist's title suggests that Key's comments are 'Not illuminating'. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
