Description

There are four frames; in the first three stands Finance Minister, Michael Cullen, possessively leaning on a huge sack of money labelled 'surplus'. In the first frame a voter asks him if the surplus can be used for health', in the second frame he asks if it can be used for other essential services and in the third frame he asks if it can be used for a little tax relief. Each time he asks, Michael Cullen refuses and says it is to be kept for a rainy day. In the last frame the rain is pelting down and Michael Cullen has opened the sack and is tossing notes in all directions - beside him is a noticeboard saying 'Campaign launch'. Refers to the interesting issue of what will become of the financial surplus and somewhat cynical use it is being put to to win votes..

Other Titles - "What about other essential services?" "No, no! We need this for a rainy day." "What about a little tax relief then?" "Don't be stupid, You'll thank me for this one rainy day!" The rainy day - "Come'n'get it!!"
