Description: Prime Minister John Key has leapt from the psychiatrist's couch and now hides fearfully behind a curtain as the spectral figure of the leader of New Zealand First, Winston Peters, looms at a window. The psychiatrist busily takes notes. Context: New Zealand First, having won no seats in 2008 due to its failure to either reach the 5% threshold or win an electorate, made a comeback with 6.6% of the vote entitling them to eight seats. Winston Peters is often regarded as a highly entertaining maverick politician - perhaps a loose cannon with an ability to embarrass the government. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
