- Description
The government as George Washington, the public as George Washington's father and, as a hapless bystander, the Ministry of Education stand around a felled cherry tree. George Washington points to the bystander and says 'I cannot tell a lie father, I watched them do it...'
By June 2013, the disasters which befell the state of education in New Zealand, including the Novopay debacle and school closures, demanded a public scapegoat. Ignoring the code of ministerial responsibility, the Minister of Education, Hekia Parata and the government as a whole blamed officials in the Ministry of Education.
