Evans, Malcolm Paul, 1945- :[Maori Party Endangered Species] 24 January 2013

Date: 2013

From: Evans, Malcolm Paul, 1945- :Digital cartoons

By: Press (Christchurch, N.Z.)

Reference: DCDL-0023895

Description: Cartoon showing Members of Parliament Tariana Turia and Pita Sharples, co-leaders of the Maori Party, as birds sitting in a nest in a tree. Meanwhile, a cat paw with claws out labelled, 'Hone" reaches towards them. Turia looks nervous, and Sharples has his eyes closed. Refers to Hone Harawira, an MP who split with the Maori party in 2011 to form his own party, the Mana Party. There is speculation that Harawira may take over for Turia, who is standing down from leadership.

He formed the new Mana Party and went on to win the Te Tai Tokorau seat in a by-election, forced by the resignation. His majority was much reduced by the Labour Party candidate and the Maori Party trailed far behind. Colour and black and white versions available Quantity: 2 digital cartoon(s).
