I think future historians sifting through our ruins will infer that this pageant symbolised the dual authority of the King. That, at times of crisis, he would have to choose between the doe-eyed bunny to his left who embodied peace and the scowling creature on his right which represented war.

The fact that the Hungarian opposition waited until the moment J.D Vance arrived in Hungary to leak a recording of this conversation between Orbán and Putin, is soooo delicious.

Ah, Greenland. To distract from the war, that was to distract from the files, that were to distract from the ICE spree, that was to distract from Greenland (again), that was to distract from the files (again). He's like a carousel where every horse is a toilet.

He is not here.

One of mine from the previous edition of The Critic Magazine. (I'm sure the Board are going to launch into action any day now...)

It's #RejectionIsland day. And #GoodFriday too. So here's an unused cartoon.

Rising above. A cartoon drawn for the @cartoonmovement.com #nasa #moon #artemis #cartoon

Pleased to have a cartoon in the new Private Eye. Here's one of mine from the previous edition.

Rainy day, family games, and the swamp monster is disturbed.

To #RejectionIsland, for a cartoon that didn't get used.

Re-re-brand.

I don't know the story behind this photo, but I assume it's when you've paid for years of voice coaching and suddenly realise you sound like a knackered kazoo.

A 'significant prize' that's presumably one of: a) imaginary b) a good, old fashioned cash bribe to go away c) the 'The Tehran Peace Prize' d) a big wooden horse full of Iranian soldiers

I'm not sure which possibility is more worrying - that the US bumbled into this war without a plan, or that this cake and arse party *is* the plan.

To #RejectionIsland, for an unused cartoon about a different island.

I think everyone really thinks that *someone* can tell Trump what to do.

Less than two months ago. And he wonders why European allies are somewhat reluctant to help with his Iran adventure.

3-day special military operation latest:

Pleased to have a couple of cartoons in the new edition of Private Eye. Here's my attempt to bring world peace from the previous issue.

Predictable #Oscars cartoon.

They’re telling me a great empire will be destroyed if I attack Persia. Even the oracles who don’t like me very much, very nasty, they all said to me, “Sir, it’s one of the great empires, and it’ll be destroyed. And all because you attacked Persia.” That’s what they’re telling me.

To #RejectionIsland, to rescue an unused cartoon.

At the @cartoonmuseum.bsky.social's 20th Birthday party this evening. Quite the congregation of cartoonists, cartoon-enjoyers and supporters of the art!

Moving the goalposts. (one of mine for the @cartoonmovement.com)

I imagine it might stop very abruptly if Putin decides to share his VHS collection with the Iranians.

"No headphones".

Iran needs a new leader. We have a spare unwanted prince. He and Trump know each other from their days on the island. It all falls into place really.

Understandable to deny beauty prizes to enhanced competitors, but if two-toed Tylopods have managed to master using a syringe then perhaps some kind of achievement medal is in order.

Will JD Vance say "thank you"?

Some of my favorite cartoons from @cartoonmovement.com this week, by Andrew Winters, @emadhajjaj.bsky.social, Oleksiy Kustovsky and @jamesdfmellor.bsky.social More cartoons: www.cartoonmovement.com #PoliticalCartoons #Iran #Trump

For no particular breaking topical reason, a recent (award-winning) cartoon.

Morning warm-up doodles that got out of hand.

Byatollah. Thin skinned chap. Didn't much care for this one from Charlie Hebdo.

I cannot regret the ayatollah and his thugs getting some justice meted out to them. But I wish this had been delivered back when the US promised Iranian protesters “help is on the way”, instead of weeks later once tens of thousands of them have been murdered by the regime.

"Assemble the Board of Peace - I'm starting a war".

My cartoon in the current edition of The Critic Magazine. Quite possibly the bleakest thing I've had in print. Still, today suggests common sense might prevail.

SOTU is over, but we've no shortage of issues. Come explore them, with Chip Bok, Dana Summers, David Horsey, Dr. Macleod, Gregory Kearney, James Mellor, Kevin Necessary, Lisa Benson, Mike Lester, Mike Smith, Patrick Blower, Paul Duginski & Victoria Roberts www.dailycartoonist.com/index.php/20...

Four years since the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine. 'Still Falls the Rain', by Edith Sitwell (1941).

One of mine from the @cartoonmovement.com

Getting shown up in the arena of elite impunity by *the British monarchy* is an incredible “America at 250!” achievement

Not surprising that these people issue these orders. Very troubling that the military go along with it, though.

One of mine for the @cartoonmovement.com

Happy #ValentinesDay

All is well.

I suppose these sorts of things are likely to happen if you stubbornly refuse to stand by a window or touch your tea.

Well, if you can't trust 'the Prince of Darkness', who can you trust?

With a sense of smell 14 times better than our own, cats are able to recognise the scent of pheromones, hormones and rejection. #FunFact

Many thanks to everyone who voted - a rejected cartoon vindicated at the UK @procartoonists.bsky.social "Splats" awards last night!

You know how you have a cartoon idea late at night and quickly scribble it down so as not to forget it, yet when the morning comes around you have absolutely no idea what you were thinking of or what the joke was? Yeah, that.
