Description

The cartoon shows ACC Minister Nick Smith as a beaver with huge front teeth who has been caught unawares 'just beavering away' at a tree representing 'ACC' which is soon going to be gnawed right through; in the stream nearby is a beavers' lodge' that represents the 'Insurance Industry'. Context - The government's continuing to work at privatizing ACC. "Plans to privatise ACC unveiled today (21 December 2010) by National and ACT are unnecessary and unfair because ACC has not made a loss since the 1980s, is presently making surpluses and has huge reserves," says EPMU (Engineering, Printing and Manufacturing Union) national secretary Andrew Little.
