Description: Caricature of Hone Harawira, who has started the new 'Mana Party'. He is shown as a baby in a plaid skirt and tam-o-shanter, breaking a patu in a tantrum. Context - The cartoonist says 'Hone using past injustices to hide the fact that really all he is doing is trying to get power, he's presuming anger for europeans breaking his heritage spirit (patu) but he's really just a dysfunctional human'. The cartoon was drawn to illustrate an article written by Nick Smith called 'Backwards into the future' which looks at similarities between Maori and Scots politics. 'Both Maori and Scots political groups trade on a sense of tribal injustice: that the perfidious Pakeha or Sassenach, respectively, has committed and continues to commit a crime against an entire people'.
