DreddyMatt posted:He got a fox face in though (left bicep) And I count three naked bodies, drawn in Thomas's standard "Kilroy was here" style. What must Beckham's legs look like, judging from that drawing? It looks as though he either has wide, curvy hips and really narrow thighs, or he just stops at a rounded base, like a weebl in Y-fronts.

I'm morbidly curious about what's going on in those Y fronts, because you know that tattoo doesn't stop at his waistband

I guess what gets me is that the punchline is a repeat of the news flash in the corner. It adds nothing more. If that corner piece wasn't there it might be worthwhile. "You know Fingers, we had a good thing there for a while" is better. Yes. They're old, they're not going to be able to adapt to the new order of things. Best give up and hand the reins over to the immigrant forgers and head off to Spain. Betjeman fucked around with this message at 15:02 on Sep 12, 2013 |

Is that supposed to be some sort of Royal Mail helicopter that they're selling off in preparation for the privatisation? It looks like something off the new Postman Pat at least!

Paul Thomas acknowledging the male gaze, and the validity of women choosing to wear the burqa as a way of avoiding it? Guess he might be rethinking that 'book of cartoons about Mohammed' after all! Then again look at those eyes. .____________. I swear the Indy guy has the worst Osborne. It's like a caricature of Alan Titchmarsh or something. He's a slick, pampered, baby-faced heir to wealth who's never done a day of hard work in his life! Steve Bell gets a pass on this obviously

Thomas doesn't satirise, his cartoons are blunt instruments. He thinks Clegg is a loser for having aspirations for his party and he's suggesting that the LibDems are the arsewipes of politics. It's straight up insult, nothing clever.
