- Description
The cartoon shows a kiwi joker dropping ash from his cigarette into a barrel of gunpowder and indignantly asking what 'youse blouses are wingeing about' when a safety officer sweating with fear orders him out. A second worker has tripped over spilling his barrel of gunpowder and dropping his cigarette and beercan. Text above reads 'News, After some safety concerns, Ports of Auck. Will no longer store gunpowder supplies for an Oz. company. Risk Management Authority (Erma) has given Australian company Defence Logistics a permit to unload four containers each containing up to 14 tonnes of gunpowder at the port and store them temporarily at a holding area before re-loading them. But the Friends of the Earth environmental group says the gunpowder should be kept well clear of the country's largest city.
