Reference: DCDL-0000199

Description: There are two scenes. In the first we see a reporter with a hand-held vieo-recorder interviewing three black people, presumably refugees from New Orleans after the Hurricane Katrina disaster. The father is saying cynically that after ten days the water looked so much like oil that President Bush got interested. This refers to his rather slow response to the disaster. In the second scene we see Winston Peters throwing mud, (presumably at an unseen Bob Clarkson). This refers to his falling behind National candidate, Bob Clarkson, in the polls, and slinging an old sexual harrassment accusation at him. The link between the two cartoons is Other Titles - "After ten days the water looked so much like oil Mr Bush got interested." Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).

Description: Shows the name 'Tauranga' painted like a path across the cartoon. Two politicians walk along it; the first is Bob Clarkson, National MP, who has just tendered his resignation and walks 'flip flop' in jandals and second comes Winston Peters, leader of New Zealand First, who goes 'stump stump'. Bob Clarkson is flipflopping because he was initially standing in the 2008 election but then changed his mind. Winston Peters is stumping confidently because now he will probably easily win the Tauranga seat. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).

Description: Winston Peters, Leader of New Zealand First, who has just lost his Tauranga seat to Bob Clarkson, is being kicked so hard in the rear by Bob Clarkson that a spray of stars and lightening flashes erupt from the injury. Winston Peters is still firmly ensconced in parliament because New Zealand First got past the 5% threshhold of votes and he is now having talks with the leaders of both major parties as they try to negotiate a viable government.
