Slane, Christopher, 1957- :By-election. 06 December 2013
Date: 2013
From: Slane, Christopher, 1957-: Digital cartoons published in the Listener, New Zealand Herald, or New Zealand Farmers' Weekly

Reference: DCDL-0026900
Description: Under the caption 'Bye-election' Gerry Brownlee, the Minister for Canterbury Earthquake Recovery, runs through the streets of Christchurch East calling out 'Unsafe! It's all Red Zone now!'. With an aerosol canister he has obliterated in red a signpost saying 'Christchurch East'. In the by-election for the strongly Labour 'Red' Christchurch East electorate held on 30 November 2013, Poto Williams, the Labour candidate, beat the National Party candidate easily. A play on words in that Christchurch East had been badly hit in the 2011 earthquake, with much of it 'red-zoned'. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
