Description: At the top of the cartoon is text reading 'Sir Geoffrey Palmer to head the UN inquiry into Gaza Flotilla raid.' Sir Geoffrey Palmer is shown saying that the Middle East inquiry will be a doddle after 'the brutal protection of self interest and the callous disregard of the needs of others I encountered reviewing the liquor laws.' Refers to Sir Geoffrey Palmer's saying that heading an inquiry into the fatal Israeli raid on the Gaza-bound aid flotilla earlier this year is probably the hardest job he has ever done. Refers also to Sir Geoffrey's heading the Law Commission's Review of the Liquor Laws - the report 'makes clear that the law is only part of the solution.' To achieve 'enduring change, the need for it has to be reflected in the hearts and minds of the community... that requires an attitudinal shift and a new drinking culture - social attitudes need to be shifted so it is not regarded as socially acceptable to get drunk.'

Description: The cartoon depicts Daffy Duck as the 'PM' John Key who says 'Suspicious Israelis? Nah They were just backpackers!' He is surrounded by suitcases with 'Warner Bros', 'Washington' and 'White House' on the labels. Context: Prime Minister John Key is about to leave for the USA where he is being welcomed to the White House on Friday, July 22 by President Obama. The Southland Times reported on 20th July that an Israeli national killed in the February Christchurch Earthquake was a Mossad spy. PM John Key has confirmed that an investigation into the four Israelis involved was carried out by police and the SIS but he said no evidence was found of a link between the group and Israeli intelligence. It would seem that the group were backpackers, not Mossad agents. While he is in the US PM John Key is having a private dinner with senior executives of Warner Brothers. The company received tax breaks and forced changes to employment law in return for making the Hobbit in New Zealand, and Key believes more film companies will follow.

Description: In the first of three frames 'other media' push a custard pie into the face of 'Murdoch', media mogul Rupert Murdoch. In the second frame 'Israel' thrusts a custard pie into the face of 'NZ' and in the third frame Hone Harawira thrusts a custrad pie into the face of 'Parliament'. Context - The first image relates to the phone hacking scandal at the 'News of the World' newspaper. At the House of Commons' Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee meeting in which Rupert Murdoch was giving evidence, someone threw a custard pie at him but it was intercepted by his young wife Wendi Deng. The second image relates to an over-reaction by New Zealand to the hasty departure of a group of young Israeli backpackers from New Zealand immediately after the June 13 earthquake; they were suspected of spying in a report in the Southland Times and John Key did not deal well with the issue, thus angering the Israelis. The third frame relates to Hone Harawira being thrown out of parliament by the speaker when he refused to swear an oath of affirmation required by law. Instead Mr Harawira chose to read from the Treaty of Waitangi. The full oath was included at the end of his statement, but the Speaker had not allowed him to finish. Mr Lockwood Smith said he had to throw Mr Harawira out because it was illegal not to give the oath as it was defined by law. Title supplied by librarian Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
