"Australia does not grovel to anyone" [Paul Keating and Gareth Evans] [picture] /

Title devised by cataloguer.; Part of the Pryor collection of cartoons and drawings.; Published in the Canberra Times on 29 February 1992.; Also available in an electronic version via the Internet at: http://nla.gov.au/nla.pic-vn3061102. Keating unloads on the Opposition as heirs to the old fogeys who grovelled to Britain (particularly in the context of the Curtin-Churchill row in World War II). Unfortunately, at the same time, Foreign Minister Gareth Evans is busy appeasing Malaysian PM Dr Mahathir by disassociating the Government from the film 'Turtle Beach', based on Blanche D'Alpuget's book about the suffering of Vietnamese boat-people who washed up on the coast of Malaysia in the late 1970's.--Information provided by Geoff Pryor
