- Description
Shows an intellegence officer reporting the discovery of 'a highly organised snake pit of foaming lunatics trying to shaft our economy, flog off everything they can, and even root the school system!!!' Ian Fletcher, newly appointed head of the Government Communications Security Bureau, tells him to relax because, 'You just happened to tune into Parliament'. Commentary from the artist: 'As the law is currently being changed to allow the GCSB to spy on New Zealanders (which until now they could not) it opens the question as to who the 'enemy' is. If the GCSB is going to spy on dodgy people working against our national interests, then there's an emerging list of people of interest for them to start with. The cartoon depicts an imaginary GCSB agent, and an off-screen Ian Fletcher, DG [appointed by National govt John Key] of the GCSB.'
