Text above reads 'LISTeria a bacterial infection caused by contamination. Symptoms, fever, vomiting, nausea, confusion, slurring, loss of balance, convulsions'. The cartoon shows Labour Party MP Damien O'Connor thinking aloud as he works up the speech in which ranted about a "gaggle of gays" and "self-serving unionists" having too much control over the party. 'LISTeria' is a (wordplay on 'hysteria') Context - refers to the news that the Labour Party has put at least seven newcomers into winnable slots on its list for this year's election, most of them with a union background. If Labour maintains the 34 per cent vote it received at the last election and keeps its current electorate seats, it will have about 22 list MPs, meaning all in the top 37 of the list get seats in Parliament. Phil Goff says that Damien O'Connor was wrong to blame the list process and the influence of union and rainbow sector groups for skewing the list against him and other rural and provincial-based candidates.
