- Description
Depicts a man playing a pokie machine. Behind him is a mother and children pulling at his arm. A sexy tempting woman is sitting beside the pokie machine, and at the back of the machine is a businessman pocketing cash money and a builder building a convention centre. A 'Greens" Party man is trying to eat the pokie machine while a man wearing an 'L' badge representing the New Zealand Labour Party is standing on the foot of the Green Party man. Commentary from the artist: "My cartoon addresses the issues surrounding the deal struck between the John Key government and SkyCity casino in Auckland re funding a convention centre in exchange for the right to install a large number of gambling machines. Encouraging gambling is itself a kind of gamble. But then again the Convention Centre is a tempting payout."
