- Description
Three scenes. The first, Parliament starts again, shows Bruce Beetham as new boy Beetham walking into Parliament wearing a frilly skirt marked 'the old funny money label' referring to his Social Credit background. Both Muldoon and Rowling are mocking him. The second, about pillaging, shows two men wheeling a crate and suggesting they are stealing it from the workplace in response to the time Parliament has made to come to a non-decision about what to do about pillaging. The third, referring to the Cantebury rubber workers and compulsory unionism shows two men at a bar. One is commenting "I suppose they want to see how it will bounce!"
