That first panel is incredible. I'm pretty sure that legs don't work like that.

Technically there aren't any panels. More seriously though that first pole position is possible but the problem is his torso doesn't realistically match his thigh position.

It's still a funny (though horrifying, visually) comic.

e: added context for new page

Anonymously sourced story that the Queen has complained to IPSO over. Would be funny if reported the cartoons too.

The bleeding boy seems a little like Cameron, but frankly who knows with political cartoonists. The fact he's bleeding suggests some reference, though.

Kids going to see the teachers for help with a bleeding nose is a common school thing.

Yeah, but the fact it's two of them made me wonder if it was meant to be Hammy and Merkel or something.

He allegedly paid to be a BDSM submissive to a dominatrix while he did cocaine, and it refers to that.

Well that's also there. But it's basically BDSM + coke fiend.

I can't speak to the UK- my knowledge is of the US.

And while I don't disagree with what you've said, this is the British Cartoons thread. Non-Brits are perfectly welcome but remember that while we share a language and worryingly-stupid electorate, British politics and American politics are definitely different beasts, especially on social issues.

What's with the double trigger?

Is it supposed to be a 'whichever way the referendum goes, Cam's hosed for proposing it to try and calm the skeptic side" thing?

No, there's one trigger - the one in the middle. What you see to the left is the trigger guard, the ring starting from the piece of metal to the right of his thumb.

I think his point is that these 'lone wolves' are actually a wide network of vicious shits.

Effectively suggesting that blaming a lone wolf without looking at the context in which that wolf comes to act, is missing the point.

Whipping up a hate mob and bullying a transgender woman to death is acceptable, telling a war criminal to kill himself is an abuse of free speech.

I figured it was Mac briefly aligning with the planets and attacking Cameron for just giving them to anyone he personally benefited from meeting, basically turbo-cronyism, as opposed to proles getting roles.
