- Description
Labour leader Phil Goff is depicted as a tailor. He sits on a chair sewing a patch entitled 'Capital Gains Tax' onto an old deflated hot-air balloon that represents 'Old left principle' and which is attached by ropes to a basket representing 'New right baggage'. Floating in the air in a second hot-air balloon is PM John Key who waves cheerfully. Context: In the run up to the 2011 elections in November the Labour Party is trailing far behind the National Party. The cartoon suggests that Labour is being held back by old Labour principles and new right baggage from the 4th Labour government in the 1980s (Rogernomics) and is trying to attract interest and votes with the Capital Gains Tax idea.
