He's trying to prove that he's a loving moron. Which is not really necessary, he's already done that perfectly well before now.Cloud Potato posted:Evening Standard: Special nod to rancid sack of poo poo Christian Adams for this smug piece of excrement rubbed all over a newspaper.

Now that you mention it, his art also looks better than usual, too. More variety in characters, stronger grasp on perspective and anatomy. Maybe he quietly subcontracted his work to a younger cartoonist for half the pay.

We've given up as a nation, so covid is going to spread like loving crazy. Even if deaths are significantly lower, everyone is expecting more infections than ever, and have decided to just accept this so they can go to the pub.
