I love that the gnomes are just standing around, smiling, being a perfectly inoffensive gay couple and just holding hands, and everyone else is looking at them like "oh god gay gnomes moral collapse".

I like how the GAY GNOME on the right has had its eyebrows drawn on afterwards with a different pen, like they looked at the finished cartoon and thought "wait this is too sympathetic" and decided to add in some hint of sinister militancy

In fairness, a look of perplexed shock is really the only expression he can draw other than those belonging to labored caricatures of specific people. And, apparently, vengeful gay militancy.

Note how they all have medals on their loving backs, because he is a hack and possibly meant for them to be facing towards the viewer before realising that meant they'd be turning their back on the tomb.

Holy poo poo, that is loving awful. The BNP and EDL have apparently fraudulently used the H4H brand to raise funds for themselves in the past, so I'd imagine H4H would have something to say about a purported connection.

I think it's pretty well established that those cartoons are always a clusterfuck, that particular example of shittiness just stuck out though. It is based on a Help for Heroes logo, but they don't put it on the back of their t-shirts because that's loving stupid.

You see other weird takes on the concept round here, Aid for Angels or whatever. I can't help but feel they're EDL-related in some way. Help for Heroes does seem to be legit, but spreading the concept beyond the British Legion is redundant.

I can't tell if Riddell is saying they undermined their own message, or that everyone else is drowning it out. I'm guessing the former but it honestly could be going either way.

And what kind of bird is that, looming above the treeline in the far distance? Is it a T-Rex? Does the queen know Unix systems?

I have to say I'm impressed with these cartoons. In the light of a recent tragedy it takes some guts to effectively say that there may be some underlying resentment which causes this radicalisation, resentment which has some merit. I haven't seen many voices in the media willing to draw attention to this, so it is good to see the cartoonists doing so, and in brutal form as usual.
