Scott, Thomas, 1947- :'This money we gave you for iwi education, housing and health seems to have gone to your whanau for cosmetic surgery, overseas travel and swanky homes...' Dominion Post, 23 January 2003.

- Description
A government official queries a Maori leader, suggesting that he has used government funds meant for the wider iwi (tribal) community for his whanua (extended family). The Maori man responds 'There you go again...more Maori bashing!' Beside him a small Maori boy thinks 'Gran and I live in a caravan without electricity. If I was bigger I'd do some Maori bashing of my own...'
The cartoon refers obliquely to a controversy about M. P. Donna Awatere-Huata who used Government funding intended to help Maori children with reading for private school fees for her children and a stomach-stapling operation for herself.
