- Description
The Castle N-ACT with two turrets named 'Corrections' and 'ACC' is being 'besieged' by 'Overseas Private Prison Companies', 'Overseas Private Insurance Companies' and 'Finance Companies', but in fact the besiegers are being welcomed to the castle. On top of the third central turret stands John Key being knighted as a reward for his success. On top of the 'Corrections' turret, Corrections Minister, Judith Collins, threatens the Corrections CEO, Barry Matthews, with an axe and on top of the ACC turret ACC Minister, Nick Smith, holds the head of sacked ACC Chair, Ross Wilson, aloft, impaled on a spike. Bags of money are heaped in the castle. Refers to National's interest in using private prison and insurance companies and propping up finance companies during the recession which in effect seems to indicate a general downgrading in public services.
