A Sign O' the Times

Originally from Whaleoil but I got this from KiwiBlog, come two highly modified Labour Billboards.

Helen's own billboards have been airbrushed and manipulated but these hoardings take the photo shopping that one step further.

Labour tried some fakery of their own earlier this year when they posted brochures to kiwis extolling the virtues of their generosity to families in the 2008 Budget and used a fake family on the offending junk mail.

Perhaps then, the billboards below are not far from Labours past history of fakery and surface sheen.

These fake billboards certainly put Clark's matter of trust claims in some perspective.

Satire, yes, but there is some truth behind those composites.
