Date: 2012
From: Evans, Malcolm Paul, 1945- :Digital cartoons

Reference: DCDL-0020178
Description: Shows Tim Groser, Minister of Trade, reading a Valentine poem from the United States, in which the US says 'Please forget about China and be my Valentine'. The poem has a verse that reads 'No more yellow peril Or reds under the bed Now capitalist China Is my banker instead'. Context: Relates to Trans-Pacific Partnership negotiations in which Mr Groser says anti-China rhetoric coming out of the US is becoming increasingly virulent. 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.

Description: An American Uncle Sam figure stands on top of a great mound of corpses from Afghanistan, Iraq and Palestine and rants against the violence in Syria. He holds a small barking dog that represents New Zealand and shouts that 'NZ joins us in condemning the ongoing violence in Syria -'. Context: Condemnation is coming from around the world against the violence in Syria as troops loyal to President Bashar al-Assad attack people protesting against his regime. The cartoon suggests hypocrisy on the part of the United States in its condemnation of the Syrian situation because of the number of controversial wars it has waged. But New Zealand also is hypocritical since we have always sent troops to support the United States. Colour and black and white versions available Quantity: 2 digital cartoon(s).

Text above reads 'World Cup minister behaving like one. In the second frame he appears in his usual role as Foreign Minister, looks less cheerful and is wearing a black shirt with a white feather on it and holding a sign that reads 'Follow Uncle Sam!' Context: The cartoon suggests that Murray McCully has no difficulty managing his World Cup role but is less confidant when it comes to his role as Foreign Minister. According to Prime Minister John Key the death (of Lt Gen Rhys Jones) would not alter New Zealand's commitment to operations in Afghanistan. Mr McCully has always been quick to respond to requests from the United States for SAS assistance in Afghanistan. Colour and black and white versions available Quantity: 2 digital cartoon(s).
