- Description
The cartoon shows Co-leader of the Maori Party Pita Sharples walking as though he has no spine to keep him upright. An onlooker comments that he has 'No spine..' and his friend holds a newspaper with a headline reading 'Harawira stays in Maori Party'. Refers to the unofficial sidetrip taken by Harawira and his wife to Paris while in Europe at tax-payers' expense. Hone Harawira was widely criticised for this as well as his use of foul language and strong anti-Pakeha comments in an email. Harawira has caused the Maori Party to risk losing credibility and there has been debate about whether he should remain in the party with with the decision made that he should perhaps somewhat against the wishes of the leadership but then they were in a difficult position. Hone Harawira has had to make two apologies, the second being rather more sincere than the first.
