Description: A pansy with the face of MP Pansy Wong grows in a pot labelled 'Wong perks'. Beside the pot is a bag of fertiliser in which a trowel with the face of PM John Key stands; he says 'I'm not protecting her!!' Above is a rhyme entitled 'Pansies', which reads 'Grow best in loose rich soil. Decline in the heat. Do not last a full season. Need water and fertiliser'. Refers to the resignation of Minister of Women's Affairs Pansy Wong after it was revealed that on a trip to China in 2008 her husband Sammy Wong was involved in a business deal. An independent investigation of travel claims by Mrs Wong and her husband Sammy was ordered by Speaker Lockwood. The trip was made with a 90 percent taxpayer-funded rebate on their airfares, and it is against the rules to use the allowance for private business. Mrs Wong has apologised and paid back the $474 rebate for the China trip. An Auditor-General's inquiry called for by the Labour opposition is not considered necessary.

Description: Finance Minister, Bill English sits at a table with other members of the 'Strategic Economic Planning Committee'. He puts his hand on his heart and says 'I believe!' The other members of the committee are a cross-eyed Easter bunny carrying a basket of eggs that represent 'jobs', Santa Claus who represents 'wage rises' and a Christmas fairy who represents 'economic growth'. Context - The 2011 May budget has just been announced. The government has made cuts in KiwiSaver, Working for Families, student loans and the public sector and a statement about 'no new spending' in order to try to get the deficit down. The budget cuts are particularly hard on people with low or fixed incomes. Critics are concerned that the government does not appear to have plans for growth and development but is relying on belt-tightening to fix New Zealand's economic problems.

Description: At the top of the cartoon are the words 'The rapture...' The cartoon shows a man who represents 'fans' who has sprouted wings and is flying up to heaven with an ecstatic smile on his face. On the ground is a newspaper with a headline reading 'Carter & McCaw re-sign with NZRU'. Context - The re-signing of All Blacks Dan Carter and Richie McCaw for the next four years is good cause for New Zealand rugby fans to get the champagne glasses out and celebrate, for more than one reason. It means the All Blacks retain the two best players in the world, players a coach can build a team around. More flexible contracts will greatly lessen the threat of losing our best talents overseas. The 'rapture' refers to a prediction that the world was going to end. Harold Camping, the 89-year-old California evangelical broadcaster and former civil engineer behind the pronouncement that judgement day was nigh seemed to go silent when nothing happened on 21 May 2011.
