The respect agenda

Posted on January 30, 2013 by

Chris Cairns on the price of dignity.

  1. Marcia says:

    The recent Section 30 debates in the Houses of Commons and Lords at Westminster showed what respect they have for the notion of Scotland being a sovereign state.

    Marcia,

    The debates showed how little respect they have for themselves, their constituents and their country.

    Another great cartoon.

    Hopefully we will see more of Chris Cairns!

    Now that’s funny, is cleverly constructed, has core truth, and a clear political message. In fact you could say that it is that rare beast, a genuine political cartoon. Many anoraks born after 1975 have never actually seen one in the flesh and have come to believe their existence to be naught but myth.  Well here it is – the real McCoy

    Compare this with the excruciating, fingernails-scratching-on-blackboard, embarrassing, $h1te served-up by the Scotchman and other morinund journals.

    Sneekyboy: Hear hear! Chris has proven that although he’s created a character that  at least in my mind has the potential to be the Yes campaigns mascot and one that might in time be as big as Oor Wullie, he doesn’t have to totally rely upon it, ether. Chris, take another bow!
