Date: 2011

From: Smith, Ashley W, 1948- :[Digital cartoons published in the Shipping Gazette, MG Business, or Presto]

Reference: DCDL-0017418

Description: Text reads 'News - NZ has turned down a U.N. request to supply a warship for piracy patrol'. A waka containing several fierce and armed Maori activists chugs through the water; one of the activists holds a banner that reads 'Leave the COAST alone you @!F*#@!' and another is Hone Harawira. Someone from the United Nations outside the frame says 'NZ said this would be scarier - but we've just got to ensure they stay on our side'. Context - New Zealand has turned down a United Nations request to provide a warship for piracy patrols, probably off the coast of Africa. Defence Minister Wayne Mapp said the navy had too much on currently to send one of its two Anzac frigate, and so the waka is being sent instead but the U.N. is worried about their loyalty. Refers also to Hone Harawira's resigning from the Maori Party because of disagreement over policy, perceived disloyalty. Published in the Shipping Gazette Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).

"I hope the pirates don't outgun us..." 12 January 2011

Date: 2011

From: Hubbard, James, 1949-: Digital caricatures and cartoons

Reference: DCDL-0016828

Description: Two men from the New Zealand Navy row a dinghy with a pop gun as a weapon near Somalia. One of them reads a newspaper with a headline 'UN asks NZ to send warship on pirate hunt' and the other hopes that the 'pirates don't outgun us'. Context; New Zealand had been asked several times in the past by the UN to supply a warship for piracy patrols but did not have a craft available. However, it is understood that the delivery of seven new ships under the Project Protector fleet had freed up the navy's two combat ships, the Anzac frigates, HMNZS Te Kaha and HMNZS Te Mana, to do more operational missions. A New Zealand navy warship may be deployed to hunt down pirates, possibly off the coast of Africa. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
