My #cartoon for the latest issue of Private Eye
A cartoon of a conspiracy meeting around a table with pawns and a marked map in the background. There are several figures in robes and masks and one alien. A person in a suit with a pyramid head is saying "...and lastly, let's add symbols, acronyms, and other clues, so that brilliant sleuths can connect the dots and expose us."

A basis for a system of government?

A cartoon of four panels. In the first panel, a politician is standing in the middle of the parliament, surrounded by several representatives, shouting 'government should be smaller!'. In the second panel, he's in the same place but there are fewer representatives and he's still shouting 'smaller!'. In the third panel all parliament seats have been replaced by a small table where only 6 representatives remain, and the politician is still standing in the same place shouting 'smaller'. Finally, in the last panel, the same person is now sitting in a big throne with two guards holding guns and nobody else, and he says 'perfect'.

An illustration of the Mars Curiosity Rover with the caption 'Humans are cute, we sent a robot to another planet and got it to sing Happy Birthday on its Earth birthday.'
