Description

'The Politician' cartoon strip. Refers to New Zealand's launching of the main elements of our ETS (Emissions Trading Scheme) in July of 2010. The politician makes a speech warning power companies not to use the Emissions Trading Scheme as an excuse toput up prices. An adviser warns the politician that the public is not going to like these cuts in services and so the politician suggests that they blame the cuts on ETS. A great example of expediency.
