Description

Shows an aluminium can with the words 'smelter jobs' printed on it. Text says 'Canned?' and 'aluMINIMUM prices'. Refers to the fact that hundreds of workers at Rio Tinto's aluminium smelter at Tiwai Point near Invercargill may lose their jobs as the company aims to cut 14,000 jobs globally. There is a play on the word 'canned' in the sense of cutting jobs and also as a reference to cans made from aluminium. There is also a play on the words 'aluMINIMUM' and 'aluminium'.
