Description: The cartoon shows a politician representing the 'Maori Party' (possibly Pita Sharples) trying 'Political hypnosis' on 'the nation' who is 'falling asleep again'. Context - Maori Party MP Hone Harawira is being disciplined by his party for refusing to toe the party line as it struggles with policy that allows it to be National's coalition partner. Right now he has been stood down but it is unclear whether he will be sacked from the party or not and also whether he wants to remain in the party or not. If he leaves and goes independent many Maori will ally themselves with him rather than the Maori Party. Harawira is furious because the Maori Party has hired a $25,000 lawyer, Mei Chen, with no discussion with his kaumatua and kuia at all. He says 'The process of Kaupapa Maori has been ignored, the constitutional process has been ignored, communication has clearly broken down right across the party, and I think that what most Maori Party members would want is for this whole mess to be set aside, cancel the lawyer, save the money, drop the disciplinary procedures, set the suspension aside, disappear onto a marae somewhere with a clear directive - and don't come out till it's all been sorted out properly.
