Description

New Zealand prime minister Jim Bolger takes as a compliment Australian prme minister Paul Keating's insult. Exhibition caption reads - Paul Keating's outspokenness did not noticeably diminish during the Australian Prime Minister's visit to New Zealand in 1993. There was not a close relationship between Keating's Labour government and Jim Bolger's National one, and the Australians were impatient of what they perceived as New Zealand's dithering on defence and economic matters.
