Date: 2011
From: Nisbet, Alastair, 1958- :Digital cartoons
By: Press (Christchurch, N.Z.)
Reference: DCDL-0018219
Description: The cartoon shows three children in rags and covered in bandages and plasters sitting amongst rubbish outside a house at night. Through the window of the house can be seen a large man holding a raised baton with which he is clearly beating someone. On the ground is a newspaper with a headline reading 'Happy Feet still in spotlight' and one of the children says 'Hey! Maybe if we dress as penguins, someone will help US!' Context - An Emperor Penguin, since named 'Happy Feet' appeared on Peka Peka beach north of Wellington, far from where it should have been. It became ill after eating sand (thinking it was snow) and was revived by vets at the Wellington Zoo. Happy Feet could be returned to the Southern Ocean as early as next month after receiving donations from an enthusiastic public. Labour's social development spokeswoman, Annette King, said although a Green Paper was "laudable", the Government already had enough information on child abuse. The Green Paper process, which is a tentative report into an issue, meant it would be months before the Government enacted any policy. Labour Party social development spokeswoman, Annette King, says she is 'inclined to think it's more of a political stunt' from a party which said before the last election that they were going to make children a priority.
