Description

Shows Prime Minister, John Key, carrying a bowl labelled 'Maori Party lobbying' in which sits a baby wearing a bib on which are the words 'Equal human rights'. John Key says that he doesn't believe in smacking babies and he certainly doesn't throw them out with the bath water. Refers to the lobbying by the Maori Party for Maori seats in the Auckland 'supercity' council while Rodney Hide of ACT has threatened to resign if Maori seats are created. John Key is seeking a compromise position. The 'smacking babies' comment refers to the referendum on the 'anti-smacking bill' that 'Family First' is paying $9 million for.
