Description

Prime Minister John Key and Finance Minister Bill English fly in a helicopter that represents 'MPs Super & perks' over a house that is drowning in a flood created by 'Kiwisaver cuts, insurance hikes, food prices, petrol, and low wages'. A family stand on the roof of the house and call for help but the politicians in the helicopter misinterpret the call as being enthusiastic waving and appreciative of being loved, wave back. Context - The cartoon suggests that the healthy salary enjoyed by politicians (particularly the PM and cabinet members) means they are out of touch with the plight of New Zealanders on low wages or benefits. The May budget has not improved things for people in this wage bracket at all.

Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
