From: Brockie, Robert Ellison, 1932- :Digital caricatures and cartoons

Reference: DX-003-086

Description: A kangaroo and a kiwi are sitting up in bed together under a blanket labelled CER, both puzzling over what to do.

At the end of 1982, for New Zealand prime minister Muldoon particularly, CER was an economic lifeline at a time when the economy was performing badly and job-creating major new industries, promised during the 1981 election campaign, looked more and more unlikely.

Date: 1984

By: Hodgson, Trace, 1958-; Listener (Periodical)

Reference: H-652-005

Description: American President Ronald Reagan is seen applying mafia boss style pressure on New Zealand Prime Minister David Lange, watched by Australian Prime Minister Bob Hawke. Exhibition caption reads - It was undoubtedly naive of David Lange and his government to think that the declaration of a New Zealand nuclear-free zone would be tolerated by New Zealand's ANZUS allies. The United States refused to confirm or deny whether visiting warships were nuclear powered or armed, effectively bringing the tripartite defence treaty to an abrupt end. The result, despite pressure from Australian Prime Minister Bob Hawke, was an uneasy truce. Exhibited in 'The Other Side of the Ditch' exhibition of cartoons on the New Zealand-Australian relationship curated by Ian F. Grant of the New Zealand Cartoon Archive and exhibited in the National Library Gallery from 28 November 2001 to 24 February 2002 to mark the centenary of Australian Federation.
