- Description
The Rimutaka Hill Road is represented as a winding track running over the caricatured features of Robert Muldoon. Muldoon's Corner is sign-posted. A construction worker remarks 'Once that's done there's a wide, slippery bit we could look at...' Below him is another sign-post labelled 'Key's Mile'.
The cartoon is titled 'News: State Highway 2 over the Rimutakas is being made safer'. Muldoon's Corner, not named after Sir Robert Muldoon, is one of the dangerous bends. 'Key's Mile', an invented name, refers to John Key's reputation for slipperiness, as well as to his habitual grin.
Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
