From the January 1967 issue of the Socialist Standard
In Auckland, a heckler shouted "What about the children?” when New Zealand’s Defence Minister, Mr. Dean Eyre, said he would like to drop 'a basinful of bombs' on North Vietnam. Mr. Eyre told the heckler: “We are dealing with Oriental people. They are different from ourselves.”
'Gaspers' were a feature of the Socialist Standard in the mid-to-late 60s in the pages of the Socialist Standard. They were wee space fillers, making short and not so sweet points against the barbarity and in(s)anity of capitalism.
