Description: Text reads 'Epsom Electorate Stakes'. The cartoon depicts a spotted horse; a voice from the front of the horde says 'Give me your electorate vote!' and a voice from the rear of the horse says 'And me your party vote!' Further text near a pile of horse manure reads 'And get Don Brash for free!' Context: Labour says the selection of ACT candidate John Banks' biographer Paul Goldsmith as National's candidate for Epsom is a "stitch-up" to ensure ACT survived. The idea seems to be that Goldsmith will be on the party list but that his standing for the Epsom seat and losing will ensure that John Banks wins the seat for ACT. Five ACT MPs would get into parliament on his shirttails.l (Stuff: 19 July 2011) Colour and black and white versions available Quantity: 2 digital cartoon(s).
