Meanwhile, back in Colonial New Zealand...



Getting a bit behind on my reading, so I cut and paste a whole bunch of blog reads onto my phone to read on the train.

So, on the way to Dandenong I noticed Lindsay Mitchell's words...

Emotions are running very high on TV One's Eye to Eye as Hone Harawira and Lindsay Perigo go head-to-head over banning tobacco. Hone says tobacco came with colonisation and Perigo says so did cars, refrigerators and tvs.

Ah yes, I remember that old line. Infact, it was the subject of my first attempt at a political cartoon [click image to enlarge]. I guess Hone Harawira's vision of our history looks exactly like that eh? What a nutter.
