Sir Robert Muldoon – former PM



Rob Muldoon died on 5 August 1992.  He was the Prime Minister of New Zealand from 1975 to 1984 – a long time.

He was a formidable politician who tended to polarise views.  Large sections of ordinary New Zealand just loved him to bits and were known as Rob's Mob.  His critics called him "Piggy" Muldoon.  He was a favourite of cartoonists and you can see why.
