Another Wonderful Steve Bell Cartoon !

[mikey4444]

Just to show the Daily Mail-reading AB posters that Steve Bell and the Guardian in general are capable of criticizing Labour characters as well as Tory ones :::::::::::::

Just in case it comes up again, political cartoons are designed to make people think, not necessarily to be funny.

'wonderful'? It's not exactly a new 'thought provoking' idea that will come as a surprise.

[youngmafbog]

Don't really get that one either and whilst it may be a labour leader many in the Guardian classed Mr Blair as a closet Tory so you point is rather moot.

To celebrate her passing, I've got a mad Thatcher being escorted from No. 10 as my wallpaper.

Jake...for God's sake....YES we have seen it on AB...........don't worry.

[mikey4444]

Thanks jake ! I never miss Bell, even if I am away on holiday...thank goodness for the 'net ! He is always perceptive and thought-provoking.

There is another reason to like his work, as he makes Daily Mail readers hot under the collar !

Yep, Mr.Blair was often termed a closet Tory. He also acknowledged Thatchers influence on him and his style as a PM.

Very much a case of "nanos gigantum humeris insidentes"...............

LazyGun......LOL.........right........Latin eh! ;-)

[jno]

come on, Sqad, surely doctors use Latin all the time...

I told my GP ocne I had some sort of inflammation between my ribs. He told me I had intracostal neuritis. Which is exactly what I'd told him, only he said it in Latin, which is why he got paid more.
