- Description
The Prime Minister, John Key, as a pilot of an Air New Zealand plane which is carrying a 'For Sale' sign on its fuselage, states 'This isn't a cunning plot to avoid the asset sales referendum!' His co-pilot, Steven Joyce, the Minister of Transport, adds 'Yeah, because we're not going to take any notice of it, anyway!' A bird flies with note in its bill reminding readers that the voting on the referendum starts on Friday.
On 18 November 2013 the Government announced that it would sell a 20 per cent stake in Air New Zealand. On 22 November the postal referendum on the question of asset sales would close. The timing was perceived as either a ploy to divert the attention of the public from the referendum, or as simple arrogance.
