First of all, my thanks to all who attended the book launch at The Yes Bar yesterday – literally standing room only. I know you were only there for Wee Ginger Dug and the Hamish toys but, good to see so many faces new and familiar.
Now then, the pitfalls of being a cartoonist who doesn’t like using labels. Johnson here is meeting Steve Bannon. Obviously I have an inflated view of my caricature skills!!
Fitting tribute, to all toryboy office gropers, lechers and shaggers, like Fuhrage today. Hope this catches on. Same bbc breakfast gimps gave us FM Sturgeon the gorilla too.
Johnson here is meeting Steve Bannon. Obviously I have an inflated view of my caricature skills!!
You do:D
Not.
Bannon got fired pretty quickly by Orange Hitler, too far right, even for that neo fascist nutcase. BJ is meant to get the bullet too, if only the mad old tory trout was more stable and strong.
Saw the remarkably good likeness you drew of Bannon and thus knew what you were getting at. That site also reports verbatim the somewhat incoherent drivel Bannon actually spouted.
I too thought it was Bannon but have no idea how he is connected to Boris. This “London professor” is also a mystery. But no doubt the rest of the thread will enlighten.
So your cartoon skills are good. It’s the allusion that escapes me.
At 70, I have been watching the annual Rememberance Day parade for most of my life. There is pride in the part Scotland played in the days when the UK government were the Good Guys (in WWII, if not WWI, which was really an argument between members of Queen Victoria’s wider family).
Then, today, up popped some woman – Vivienne Foster, of the Merchant Navy Association, who, when interviewed, went on and on about England – to her, it was all about England.
Steam coming out of my ears – well past time we were out of this Union, when silly people such as she are incapable of recognising her debt to the very-many Scottish sailors, who gave their lives for her precious “England”.
“Bannon got fired pretty quickly by Orange Hitler, too far right, even for that neo fascist nutcase.”
There is, though, very good reason why many Wingers have no idea what Bannon looks like or indeed who he is. That reason is the broad-brush , “BRITISH”, Biased media.
Here is a YouTube clip by Prof John Robertson that explains exactly why in much greater detail:-
We really should pay much more attention to such as Chris Cairns & John Robertson than to any biased faction of what calls itself, “The Main Stream Media”.
Which MSM is quite rapidly becoming a wee, ever decreasing, backwater as the truth from such as Chris & Prof John slowly overcomes the fake news and downright lies of the Biased Broadcasting Corporation and the rest of the, “British”, media.
May the MSM rot in the hell they have created for themselves. They well deserve the obscurity they have created for themselves and some already now inhabit.
The London professor is one of those shadowy figures who is flitting around the Trump/Russia/FBI and folk are digging.
An independent journalist Gavin Sheridan has uncovered a pic with him and Boris at a dinner, after Boris said he had never met him.
His name is Mifsud, he is Maltese, and a professor of something. Jon Worth has also done an amazingly complicated diagram of his contacts, and he has some type of connection with Stirling university.
My take on him he is one of these men who moves among countries at a high level, making introduction s and deals.
Watch this space.
The Salmond thing is still at full volume, quite unbelievable.

Spot on Rabbie.
BBC leads the way in their ongoing BBC says vote Trump, he’s a lovely guy propaganda, here in their UKOK zone of BBC rule.
As usual its the BBC r4 tory creeps that are that epicentre of pro Orange Hitler propaganda, for all kinds of tory UKOK reasoning. Although on balance, the tory neo fascists at BBC World Service are just appalling vote Trump propagandists, if only because that crew of tory reprobates are broadcast and listened to around the planet.
And we all know, indy ref2 comes, Orange Hitler is going to be core to BBC’s Project Fear 2.0

” … RT can’t in their wildest dreams have hoped for so much publicity for this show.”
I’m not so sure about that, HandandShrimp.
RT seem to be a very astute and clever outfit wise enough to avoid the same mistakes as made by both Voice of America and Radio Moscow, who everyone and his/her dug knew were broadcasting wall to wall propaganda.
Both were only slightly worse than the BBC World Services, (who incidentally outperformed both Radio Moscow and VOA both in power output and bias content), but were slightly more subtle than the Communists, (sic), or the Yank Right Wingers.

Noticed that “English” Merchant Navy. Very annoying.
As An ExMN navigator,(1950s) I know that a very high percentage were Scots and thousands were lost in WW2.
Most English don’t really mean to be so chauvinistic. I have very good English friends and have sometimes had to correct them on England/U.K. which they always take in good part with an apology. It is just how they were educated, plus the English media.
Great book launch on Sat. Chris. Thanks again for the E and look forward to the next one!
Toon shows Boris in all his glory. He’s a throwback to politicians of old who gave no care to those who elected him and is now an old debauched fecker contriving to save himself.

I think you mean on leave, Chris.
As in leave of senses.
Fucking pillock. Foreign Secretary?- taking dictation from Washington I expect.
God help us every one.
I notice the London Professor is wearing the Wicked Witch of the East’s socks here. Probably not auspicious for him.
…Ladies and Gentleman…This is Mrs Mays replacement as the leader of Brexit Land!
I’m sure Boris and Gove will have Scotlands best interests at heart.
Nice one, Chris. The London Professer is also a teaching fellow at the University of Stirling, allegedly.
‘Rips my eyes out’
Not sure I’ll ever recover, anyone fancy a cheap ‘holiday’
Good one Chris….
Steve Bannon explaining to BJ why war is good, cleansing, like fire?
See Fuhrage is just another toryboy office shagger, shock.
First of all, my thanks to all who attended the book launch at The Yes Bar yesterday – literally standing room only. I know you were only there for Wee Ginger Dug and the Hamish toys but, good to see so many faces new and familiar.

I got that it was Bannon, honest, Chris!!!
You have made him a bit too handsome, in real life, there is evil pus oozing from his pitted face.
The London professor still lurks in the shadows, but a number of torches are being trained on him. I’m sure he has went to ground.
Aye boris the same “cu next tuesday”who said a pound spent in croydon was better than a pound spent in Strathclyde.
Great afternoon in the Yes Bar at your book launch Chris, what makes you think we were all there to see The Wee G Dug! Love the book.

Nah! You did well, Chris. Those of us who actually read the news and went to sites like this:-
link to patheos.com
Saw the remarkably good likeness you drew of Bannon and thus knew what you were getting at. That site also reports verbatim the somewhat incoherent drivel Bannon actually spouted.
Good old Boris, torture animals to death for fun, Johnson.
The more you see the inner workings of Boris’ mind the more ghastly he appears. I could imagine he would be quite at home with Bannon.
Still totally bemused at the Yoon spasms over Alex’s show – RT can’t in their wildest dreams have hoped for so much publicity for this show.
I see Torrance is raging that Alex has his own show would it not be nice if Alex was to invite him on then we would see how much of an ar*e*ole he is.
Chris another great one.
Scott
I think Alexx is mainly interviewing people he thinks the viewers might find interesting.
Fantastic rendering of the psychopathic narcissist look in BJ’s eyes Chris.
Did you get Moodie to model ?
I too thought it was Bannon but have no idea how he is connected to Boris. This “London professor” is also a mystery. But no doubt the rest of the thread will enlighten.

@ Valerie – thx for the info. Intriguing! Must do a bit of digging into this – I love a mystery, especially if it brings down Tory Governments.
Chris Cairns says:
Having now done an image search of the likely suspects, I can confirm that confirm that your caricature skills are spot on. 🙂
However, the list of ‘note worthy people’ Boris chooses to meet does leave room for identity confusion.
