Don Brash wears a tshirt printed with the words 'I love Roger' and Hone Harawira wears a tshirt printed with 'I love bin Laden' ('love' is suggested on both tshirts by a heart symbol). Context A debate between Don Brash and Hone Harawira on TVNZ's Close Up. Former leader of the National Party, Don Brash, has ousted Rodney Hide from the leadership of the ACT Party and taken his place. There would have been machinations behind the scenes with ACT MP Roger Douglas the instigator of the 'Rogernomics' free enterprise economic reforms of 1984. Hone Harawira, who has just founded a new party to be called the 'Mana Party' and has raised eyebrows by calling Osama bin Laden (killed 1 May by US forces) a freedom fighter, saying the former terrorist mastermind should be "honoured", not "damned", as according to Maori custom.
