Overton Windows

Digital cartoon by Chris Slane on political and social issues in New Zealand and internationally. Description from cartoonist reads: "Cartoon depicts a red and blue coloured political landscape signposted as left, centre and right. One giant green rainbow coloured window frame containing a green ecological low carbon ‘survivable future' landscape with a Māori woman (Marama Davidson - Green Party) calling "Come with us if you want to live". Dressed in a red shirt the leader of Labour Party Chris Hipkins, sword in hand, is standing on top of the hill labelled 'Majority of Voters'. He is sparring with the leader of National Party Chris Luxon dressed in a blue shirt, who is retreating to the right of the centre. A sign on the downward slope to the right is labelled 'Business As Usual'. On the far right a small gold coloured window frame is labelled ‘UBER-RICH SURVIVAL'. It contains a luxury boat travelling through a flooded suburban landscape. The window frame is being lifted onto the air by a helicopter blade with a wealthy man in a top hat ascending a ladder. It is David Seymour leader of the Act party is holding a champagne glass calling "Not all of you can come live with us, SOZ!". An Overton window is the range of policies politically acceptable to the mainstream population at a given time aka 'window of discourse'".
