- Description
Shows Prime Minister John Key on one side, and David Shearer and Russel Norman he other side, in a game of tug of war with an electrical cord instead of a rope. The cord is labelled, 'electricty prices' and Key is pulling the cord in the direction of rising prices, and Shearer and Norman are pulling the cord in the direction of lower prices. Key thinks to himself, "Dang! Could be in for a bit of a power struggle!" Refers to a joint proposal between the Labour Party, which Shearer leads, and the Green Party, which Norman co-leads, to create a single buyer agency called NZ Power, which will purchase all electricity at a price based on the cost of production. Under the NZ Power setup, Labour estimates that power bills will fall by $230-$330 per annum for the average residential customer. (Scoop, 18 April 2013)
