Cartoon for @LondonEconomic [oc]

  1. Johnson hinted at a return to politics in the future. I bet he would love Truss to keep making colossal mistakes like she has, he can use those to claim that he was not so bad after all.

  2. I love it – Liz looks like a cross between ET and Hei Hei. And I always love when people bring up the fridge thing, it’s like “it’s not only me that remembers it, I didn’t dream it up” lol.

  3. Ah, yes, this is all just salty sniping from the sidelines by the *check notes* fringe left wing liberals at the London School of Economics?

  4. Yea make the evil people out to be stupid. Theyre definitely not lining their pockets and getting away with it. Theyre just dumb and accidentally crashing the economy. Not a hint of malice. Its all just terrible luck that this has happened.

  5. “They keep calling us morons but they also keep letting us run the country because they are complete imbeciles” – Tories probably

  6. I love how all the political artists are drawing Liz so violently ugly. But it’s true, she’s such a vile person that it’s hard to remember that she’s actually a normal looking woman.

  7. Since OP is somewhat active in this thread, I would like to ask: do you worry about drawing non-whites in this sort of thing? Since exaggerating facial features could lead to infinite gaff.

  8. It often takes political cartoonists a while to nail their depiction of someone – Steve Bell went through several iterations of the likes of Blair and Bush until he settled on his designs – but this is Truss absolutely spot on.

    The vacant, dazed eyes, the open mouth, the stance where she doesn’t know what to do with her arms.

  9. Sad fact is after that clown literary hid in a fridge he still managed to get elected, says so much for the stupidity of the British voting public, stand fast Scotland
