- Description
A woman, in extreme frustration, hauls her husband away from cricket on TV and tries to shove him out into the garden saying 'I agree - ripping up the land ruins the natural beauty of the countryside - but you're still going to dig the garden!' A newspaper on the floor has a headline reading 'OK given to mine conservation land'. Context - the government's decision to give the go-ahead to exploratory drilling for the mining of various minerals in several national parks. This is an extremely controversial move (led by Energy Minister, Gerry Brownlee), which conservationists and the tourist industry are not happy about.
