"Sorry Adams, but not enough people will recognise Arlene Foster. No, keep the idea, draw Theresa May there instead. Yes I know it makes it less funny and obscures the point"

Martin Rowson's book of short stories/ squibs/feuilletons 'Snatches' is pretty funny. He should probably have stuck with writing, as I don't rate his cartoons at all.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DQhOZDgX4AAcWzm.jpgbad cartoon, but Arlene probably is making similar faces rn, and maybe is stood by magic money tree.

LIBERTY, MARK, LIBERTY, NOT THAT YOU'D KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS
sadly my research concludes that it is somewhat altered from the original, which featured al gore in the driver's seat and a uh non-bukkake earth in the sky (?)

Liberty? it looks like a pig trying self-immolation before the train gets it.

i believe tracer is arguing that the top-hatted pink head has been photoshopped onto the pale green body of liberty in an outrageous and subversive act of détournement
my preferred story is that some irony-poisoned very online leftie hired garrison to produce this (with detailed elements requested, as is i believe the garrison technique) (like jim'll paint it but TRENCHANT) and the wily and entrepreneurial BG* simply repurposed an old global warming cartoon to save time, with a quick corbs-head added here and a BOURG TEARS there
*BG? wait my mind is racing here

I always presume the fat cigar smoking evil capitalist in 20's/30's soviet propaganda is a Churchill caricature?

as the closest to a self-outed matt-stan on the boards, i am drawn to the concept of "sub-matt"

Submatt is a Happy Hardcore DJ from Dewsbury iirc

Matt's cartooning style is a bit 'Sub-Wicked Willie', imho:

It's always a bad cartoon when it needs a written sign/poster to make any sense.
