Description

Shows Labour leader David Shearer bound with rope and standing beside a noose. Two men wearing executioner's hoods and an L ribbon for Labour stand beside him. One says to the other, "Ok. So we won the Ikaroa Rawhiti by-election. Don't just stand there. Demand a recount..." Refers to the election of Labour candidate, Meka Whaitiri, for the Parliamentary seat formerly held by Parekura Horomia, who died in April 2013. Whaitiri received over 40 per cent of the vote, over Mana party candidate Te Hamua Nikora, and Maori party candidate Na Raihania. Labour's win in the election prompted Mana party leader, Hone Harawira to renew his call for the Maori Party to join forces with the Mana Party to stop Labour from winning Maori seats. Meanwhile, David Shearer's popularity in the polls has been dropping. (New Zealand Herald, 29 June 2013)
