Otherwise its just be nothing in this thread apart from images. You can't be telling me that its very realistic that ghosts come flying out of a sinking ship towards a bed with Thatcher in the middle of the ocean [nightmares]. His style is grotesque and caricature for everyone. Fluo fucked around with this message at 09:20 on Apr 12, 2013 |

Is it not actually a depiction of Thatcher's nightmares? Its not ghosts literally attacking her. Anyways, I am not exactly sure what you are trying to say in the expanded version of your post. Just talking about what?

No, I questioned the conclusion you came to, you can talk about it as much as you want but if you single it out negatively for things that frankly a lot of political cartoons do I'll make a note of it.

Are you saying the conclusion I came to is wrong? Or are you just getting angry that I didn't do it to every single one (which tends to be the Telegraph/Daily Mail/Express cartoons but sometimes Guardian/Indy) cartoon ever posted? Because I was pretty mad at a Steve Bell's IF.. cartoon before . If you want to be critical of every single banal bad opinion cartoon that generally are all the same be my guest and then I can nitpick on something you missed out on a cartoon rather then add to the discussion by talking about something I spotted in it. Not everyone sees the same thing, we're not all robots or Thatcherites. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYyZNHlGqhU

I believe that your opinion, that it shows's the creator's political enemies to be bad people, but on the other hand that that is all well and good for a political cartoon. The worst are actually things like Mac which, as far as I can tell, typically say absolutely nothing.

That's a pretty good cartoon, famous deaths seem to bring out the best on Bors. As ever the milk bottle suffers most.

That Bors is good! Guardian: Rowan on Thatcher's funeral! Margaret Thatcher's funeral will take place at 11am on Wednesday at St Paul's Cathedral. Telegraph: Indy: It's a homage to Mark Antony in a painting by G E Robertson. Others aren't around yet, but holy gently caress Cloud Potato, the Express are still uploading the same North Korean cartoon! P.S: Archer season4 was amazing, just finished episode 13.

The recent Thatcher cartoons have really made me appreciate the lecture by Bell posted early in the thread. The finale was great and it's nice to see them give a send up to Harry Goz. Murphy died the way he would of wanted, trapped under a soda machine with his spleen falling out of his anus.
