Hawkey, Allan Charles, 1941- :"In a best case scenario - we'll get another polar blast....
Date: 2011
From: Hawkey, Allan Charles, 1941- :[Digital cartoons published in the Waikato Times].
By: Waikato Times (Newspaper)
Reference: DCDL-0018647
Description: Text reads 'Police plan to dish out heavy fines to anyone streaking at the RWC - News'. The cartoon shows a sergeant briefing his men about 'RWC security'. He says 'In a best case scenario - we'll get another polar blast'. Context: The Rugby World Cup starts on 9th September. Former All Blacks are calling for crowds to mind their manners during World Cup matches, and tone down the booing and jeering during opposition penalty kicks or conversions. However, streaking seems to have been given the OK, with only 2 per cent of respondents saying that a naked person running across the field would send a bad message about the country. But tolerance of streakers is unlikely to be exercised by police, who plan to dish out heavy fines using the Major Events Management Act. (Stuff - 17 August 2011) Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
