"They've moved from a per litre tax on Aucklanders, to a 'per litter' tax on the rest of us..." 18 March 2009
- Date

- Description
Prime Minister, John Key, sits on a throne on a litter and is carried by slaves who represent the population of New Zealand. The litter represents 'Auckland transport costs'. Refers to the news that Transport Minister Stephen Joyce has scrapped the regional tax that would have paid for $710 million of rail, bus and ferry improvements, then announced that instead $500m for electric trains would come from smaller increases in national fuel taxes (more correctly funding will come from the government via Kiwirail)..
