Evans, Malcolm Paul, 1945-:[Brash and Hide.] 28 April 2011
Date: 2011
From: Evans, Malcolm Paul, 1945- :Digital cartoons
By: Press (Christchurch, N.Z.)
Reference: DCDL-0017698
Description: The cartoon shows former leader of the National Party, Don Brash, dressed as a groom with an 'ACT' badge on his lapel. He holds the hand of his diminutive bride, former ACT leader Rodney Hide, who stands in a pool of blood with a dagger stuck into his back and who holds a bouquet of lilies. Both grin broadly. Context - The ousting of Rodney Hide from the leadership of the ACT Party by Don Brash who is the new leader. There was obviously considerable political manoeuvring behind the scenes before the announcement was made - ACT now has both Roger Douglas and Don Brash as lead members - both far right. This move will have been of great interest to the National Party also. Title provided Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
Nisbet, Alistair, 1958- :Future tornado predictions?... 8 May 2011
Date: 2011
From: Nisbet, Alastair, 1958- :Digital cartoons
By: Press (Christchurch, N.Z.)
Reference: DCDL-0017883
Description: The title is 'Future tornado prediction?... There follow six cameos featuring the new ACT leader Don Brash and others in his trajectory. In the first frame 'Seemingly dormant air begins spinning to the right...' and the head of Don Brash starts to spin in an anti-clockwise direction. In the second cameo Don Brash 'then collides with stale air spinning from the left and the head of the leader of the Labour Party, Phil Goff, seems to be running out of steam as he spins to the left. Next comes 'unstable air spinning from the North' and Hone Harawira, the leader of the new Mana Party, appears with steam belching out of his ears. The Don Brash tornado 'then merges with the tepid air spinning in the centre...' as he twists around the Prime Minister, John Key 'creating volatile air that no matter what the spin...' John Key and Don Brash are twisted together so tightly that lightning strikes and they move off together in a vortex that 'will flatten everything in its path...' - A sign saying 'Welfare' is lying on the ground. Context - The former leader of the National Party has ousted Rodney Hide from his role as leader of ACT and taken over himself. Together with Roger Douglas he will be espousing a very right-wing monetarist ideology which he probably hopes will influence the National government. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
