Shows Prime Minister Rob Muldoon as a bulldog which is tethered to a stake beside a kennel. The President of the National Party George Chapman is a cat and sits on top of the kennel. The bulldog barks at several chickens which squawk and scatter. The chickens represent the leader of the Labour Party Bill Rowling, and Social Credit leader Bruce Beetham who are on the ground and Jim Knox, Secretary of the Federation of Labour, who is in the air. Context: The Prime Minister was making a habit of threatening early elections and scaring the other leaders and the unions; none of whom were ready to contest an election at the time.
