- Description
Shows Prime Minister John Key dressed as a plumber, trying to fix a leaky fawcet labelled Mighty River Power. The drops of water represent treaty obligations, litigation, and water ownership debates. Key tells a man representing the New Zealand public that it's going to get worse before it gets better, and the man tears at his hair and says, 'It was fine before you tried "fixing" it!' Refers to the government's plan for the partial sale of owned assets, including the Mighty River Power company, which has resulted in public outcry, and an appeal from the Maori Council.
