Description

Shows president of the Labour Party, Mike Williams, bending over and beaing beaten by an apoplectic Prime Minister, Helen Clark, who yells at him that he should never tell the truth they later have to deny but should tell a fib and repeat it constantly. On the floor is a newspaper with the headline 'Williams caught in Electoral Act row'. Refers to Mike Williams having said 'that's a good idea' when a delegate at the Labour Party conference suggested using Labour Party leaflets for the election campaign. This would be a breach of the Electoral Finance rules and left Labour open to intensive criticism from the opposition.
