Description: The word 'LABOURed' is in left top corner. Below are a number of speech bubbles that contain speeches from someone in the Labour Parliament trying to find new candidates 'Hey, just ringing to see if you want to come back to parliament' and a whole lot of excuses and refusals 'You're next on the list to replace Darren..' 'I think you've rung the wrong number', 'I'd rather take an enema'. Context - the poor polling of both Phil Goff, the Labour Party leader and the Labour Party as a whole after a series of misfortunes, gaffes and disasters like Darren Hughes, who was a rising star, forced to resign as Labour's chief whip after a sexual misconduct accusation.

Description: In four frames a man watches the news on TV. He hears that 'Severe aftershocks continue as the demolition crew move into the red zone.. amidst the badly damaged infrastructure..' His wife offers him a cup of tea and assumes the report is about Christchurch but it is not, it is about 'Phil Goff & Labour' Context - Christchurch continues to have aftershocks following the February 22 earthquake and the Labour Party is suffering one bodyblow after another - the last being the Darren Hughes affair. This is disastrous for Labour because the 2011 election is in November. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).

Context - Chief Labour Party whip Darren Hughes has been forced to resign after an 18 year old student laid a sex complaint against him with police. Police are still investigating.

Description: 'The Politician' cartoon strip.

Context - Labour MP Damien O'Connor has said sorry after lashing out about a "gaggle of gays" and "self-serving unionists" having too much control over the party.

Description: Above the first of two cameos text reads 'Homosexual caveman found in Prague archaeological site'; below is a caveman burial site with artifacts. Above the second cameo text reads 'Homophobic caveman found in Labour caucus' and below is Labour MP Damien O'Connor who says 'A gaggle of gays rule our party. You heard it from Damien O'Connor first!' Context - A team of Czech archaeologists claim to have unearthed the remains of an early gay man from around 2900-2500 B.C. outside Prague. According to the Telegraph, the "gay caveman" was found buried in a way normally reserved only for women during the Copper Age. The man had been interred on his left side with his head facing east, with no weapons and household jugs -- almost always reserved for women in the region during that time -- placed at his feet. Traditionally, men were buried with weapons, hammers and flint knives, and their bodies were positioned on their right side with their heads facing west. (Huffington Post 7 April 2011) Labour MP Damien O'Connor has said sorry after lashing out about a "gaggle of gays" and "self-serving unionists" having too much control over the party. Hence a homosexual caveman and a homophobic caveman thousands of years apart. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).

Description: An old bomb labelled 'Labour', encrusted in shells and rust, is raised from the sea in a net. Text reads 'Old bomb dredged up off the coast'. The little Evans man says 'It's not even ticking'. Context - The cartoonist's opinion of the Labour Party at the beginning of the run up to the 2011 election. A corroded bomb has been hauled out of the ocean by fishermen in a trawl net about 3km north-east of Taiaroa Head on the tip of the Otago Peninsula. It has been identified as a harmless practice round. (Radio NZ News 25 January 2011) Colour and black and white versions available. Quantity: 2 digital cartoon(s).

Description: Text reads 'Labour announces list, which contains lots of "fresh blood"'. Below, Count Dracula with the words 'Vote Count' printed on his cloak, rubs his hands with glee and says 'Tempting'. A second version has the count say 'All votes count but do all counts vote?' Context - The Labour Party has put at least seven newcomers into winnable slots on its list for this year's election, most of them with a union background. If Labour maintains the 34 per cent vote it received at the last election and keeps its current electorate seats, it will have about 22 list MPs, meaning all in the top 37 of the list get seats in Parliament. The 'fresh blood' comment probably refers to the disastrous fall of Darren Hughes who was considered a rising star and who has resigned following allegations of sexual misconduct. Two versions of this cartoon are available Quantity: 2 digital cartoon(s).

Description: Labour MP Louisa Wall looks terrified as she opens a door into a black cave-like room; from the lighted room behind her people shout 'You go ahead', 'We'll stand aside Louisa', 'Good luck!' and 'Give Phil our love!' Context - Louisa Wall has been promoted up the Labour Party list to replace Darren Hughes who has resigned following an accusation of sexual misconduct. There have been complaints about her jumping the list queue, but because of the poor polling of Phil Goff in particular and the Labour Party more generally, the other (unseen) members of the Labour Party seem happy to stay behind.

Description: Text reads 'Judith Tizard still gets a kick out of politics' The cartoon shows MP Judith Tizard being kicked through the air by Phil Goff's big boot. Two people in the corner say 'And what about us? We voted for Judith'. Context - Judith Tizard is next on the party list and is the first cab off the rank to replace Darren Hughes, who handed in his formal resignation from Parliament April 5 after being accused of sexual misconduct. Ms Tizard said Labour leader Phil Goff had not asked her to stand aside but had sounded like he was "chewing dead rats" when he told her she would be welcome if she decided to return. Labour Party president Andrew Little had called for Ms Tizard and four other candidates on Labour's list to stand aside for rising star Louisa Wall. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
