Reference: DCDL-0025427
Description: An assistant reads from documents at a desk, saying to an out-of-frame figure, "This week, your worship, you've got a meeting in Wellington..." the other person replies "News to me!" The assistant then continues "...And the Dalai Lama is visiting Dunedin" to which the voice replies "So I have!" Refers to a visit to Dunedin by the Dalai Lama in June. In May, Dunedin Mayor, Dave Cull, turned down introducing the Dalai Lama at a public talk, reportedly calling him "the representative of a minority religious faith" and "the leader of a minority sect". Cull subsequently claimed to have an unavoidable commitment in Wellington that day and described his comments as regrettable. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
