The Times one is at least a decently-construsted metaphor, provided you share the cartoonist's worldview. The Telegraph one is abysmal, though, I'll give you that. When your cartoon is trying to bash a candidate by having your actual Darth Vader endorse him for no apparent reason you might want to rethink a number of your decisions in life.

The labels were not necessary but I think it was a good cartoon. Corbyn going through and shrugging everything off while his opponent struggles to do things the normal way was funny. If you want to see what a poo poo cartoon looks like just take a peak at that last Bob.

It works, but without the labels it's conveying the opposite of the point he's trying to make, see?

I wonder what ethnicity the guy with the huge hook nose is supposed to be. The stereotype is supposed to be that Jewish doctors/surgeons are good, but maybe Mac thinks they're shifty and only in it for the money. He can gently caress off either way.

Well, the phrase is reds under the beds. It's a loss of detail but it's a bit of an ask for your Sunday Times reader to identify whoever else counts as prominent Trotskyite.
