One of two farmers behind him mutters 'Why doesn't someone put a cap on his emissions?' Context - A tax credit paid at a rate of 12.5 per cent to reward investment in research and development would be paid for by farmers picking up the $800 million cost of their greenhouse gas emissions over five years, instead of by taxpayers. Labour leader Phil Goff announced the plan yesterday, hoping to capitalise on complaints of a lacklustre Budget last week by trumping National with a policy he said could create up to $22 billion a year in new business.

Description: The cartoon shows Labour leader Phil Goff who comments that Labour's 'polls haven't been flash' but he has identified a way to 'ignite public interest and guarantee extensive media coverage.' He tells his team to kick him hard in the groin. His supporters realise that he is 'going for the sympathy vote' and are pleased about the 'novelty value.' Context: Labour is lagging in the polls. Maybe the idea for the kick has come from the amount of sympathy being engendered by All Black Dan Carter's groin injury. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
