- Description
Shows John Key, seen from behind, in discussion with Ian Fletcher. Key says "As a politician, Ian, I like to find compromises" while Fletcher replies "That's good, John, because as your good buddy at the GCSB, our intelligence service will be compromised to its core." Refers to media debate over the appointment of Ian Fletcher, allegedly a friend of Key's, to the role of head of the Government Communications Security Bureau (GCSB). Accompanying note from cartoonist states: 'The irregular recruiting of Ian Fletcher by John Key for the GCSB job introduces the 'poison' of political capture to a body that needs to be unbiased and clear-headed. My cartoon depicts the nape of John Key and the face of GCSB D/G Ian Fletcher, over breakfast. The title 'Spies on toast' is meant to suggest spies having been totally outwitted, captured, compromised by the National Party's John Key.'
