Of course its ok, this isn't English Political Cartoons Mega Thread.  It seems Steve Bell's IF... this week is a carry on from last week, I hope he does the month epic IF like he did before (that Falklands one)!

Is the correct answer 'I have no loving idea'? I mean assuming Miliband is the hammer and sickle, raging communist that he is, who the gently caress is CLASS WAR? I guess it could be Boris Johnson if it's upside down and aimed at the poors

Sometimes you need to take a step back and see things from the bizarro perspective. Case in point, maybe that Question Time cartoon is actually a searing indictment of lefty liberal bias BBC if you're the target audience

That leaves 2 and 5, and Johnson and Cameron. I'd say 2 and e, based on another line in his Guildhall speech, Therefore 5 and b, and a sign of ambition. 1 d; 2 e; 3 f; 4 a; 5 b; 6 c.

I just scrolled down and didn't see the tattoo at first, so all I saw was what looked like Camilla pointing and laughing at a naked Charles and assumed it was a potentially treasonous dick joke or something.

I've said it before, but Bell's problem is that he tends to go a bit too far and his characters come out pretty unrealistic. Things like his portrayal of IDS as a sadistic, blood-sucking vampire - far more human and likeable than the real thing. Is Steve a crypto-Tory??
