"If you close your eyes, hold your nose, and swallow - They're yum" 12 September 2009
Date: 2009
From: Slane, Christopher, 1957-: Digital cartoons published in the Listener, New Zealand Herald, or New Zealand Farmers' Weekly
Reference: DCDL-0012326
Description: Cartoon shows Prime Minister, Phil Goff in a can of worms labelled 'John's electoral system turmoil' and Minister for Local Government, Rodney Hide, in a second can of worms labelled 'Rodney's Chunky Auckland Super City Chaos'. In the background is a third can labelled 'Ministerial Housing Rort'. John Key says that if you hold your nose and shut your eyes they are yum. Refers to the decision that the Government will spend millions of dollars holding a referendum on whether MMP should be dumped - a system Prime Minister John Key thinks New Zealanders are increasingly comfortable with. Mr Key said National would hold the referendum to honour its election pledge and let people "kick the tyres" of the electoral system. Refers also to the rows over the supercity which are about Maori representation on the council and how much of Auckland is included among other things.
