National has released its latest billboard campaign - including one which divides New Zealanders by race - and predicatbly people have already started to "culture jam" them. The first selection (posted on Scoop) are fairly weak - the point of the billboards is to deliver a short, punchy message. The one below, forwarded to me by a reader, is far better.
Or this one, whipped up in photoshop this morning, which both reminds people of what National did last time it was in government, and of what the consequences of their tax cuts for the rich will be:
Though actually, you could do that with virtually any policy area - including their present darlings of roads and defence.
Any other good ideas?

ReplyDeleteHow about a Labour Add saying :

Millions on the Benefit need your TAX MONEY
How about: Helen! ---- Winston!
ReplyDeleteHm... Seem to remember that Clark has the dubious honour of closing more hospitals than any other Minister of Health? Seems a bit ironic the left talking cuts?

I love NZ.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know of the Billboard that is dividing Kiwis by race?
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen one. Which one is it I/S?
The so-called "racial" billboard is Iwi (on labour side) Kiwi (on Nat side)
ReplyDeleteSo what makes you lefties believe that Iwi arent part of New Zealand?
ReplyDeleteHow about Dumb and Dumber
ReplyDeleteI suggest somthing that paints the National party as uncomfortably right.
ReplyDeleteI want you tonight
I dont see it myself! I think you lefties are trying another smear campaign. It doesn't state that iwi is the opposite to kiwi and you know this......
