Here’s another cartoon in which I try to portray members of the Conservative establishment as figures from ‘Orror flicks. This time the personages being skewered are those two gentlemen of the fourth estate, the Barclay twins. They’re the weirdo owners of the Torygraph, now going down the drain rapidly. I’ve try to portray them as the creepy twin little girls from Kubrick’s The Shining.
Enjoy, and don’t have nightmares. It’s only Tories.

Very creepy indeed, and in an added twist the twins look to be wearing Nora Battey’s wrinkled stockings!

Thanks for that, Trev – you’re quite right! It was deliberate. But do you think I should have drawn Compo’s face staring at them with an expression of disgust? – ‘Oooooh! Them wrinkled stockings!’ 🙂

The Last of the Summer Whine – no, Compo was greatly attracted to those wrinkled stockings!
