Description

Shows Prime Minister, Helen Clark, and leader of the opposition, John Key, both stretching their left arm as far as they can in an effort to win votes in their law and order policies. John Key offers a carrot and Helen Clark holds a pair of wrist shackles. Helen Clark tells the audience that her arm is longer but she is standing further back. A man in the audience says that he does not find this very reassuring. A scientist behind them measures their arm lengths. Refers to the contest in the run up to the 2008 election.
