- Description
Prime Minister John Key and Leader of the ACT Party Don Brash sot on top of a huge sack that represents 'Tax cut$ for top 10% with glasses of champagne in their hands. The sack is being borne on the backs of dozens of workers. Down below Leader of the Labour Party Phil Goff wields a pair of scissors and threatens to cut the sack so that there can be a 'minimum wage increase' of '$2'. Don Brash squeeks 'EEEEEEK!' and John Key says 'That's an enormungous burden on the economy'. Context - Leader of the Labour opposition, Phil Goff, says the PM is spending $2.5 billion a year on tax cuts for the country's top earners but is only prepared to raise the minimum wage up 50 cents to $12.50 an hour. Phil Goff promises a $2 rise in the minimum wage if Labour is elected to parliament in the November election.
