From today’s Sunday Times:

Can someone please tell the nation’s esteemed political cartoonists/satirists to change the record and start coming up with something a bit more imaginative (and funny!) ‘cos this public school-boy crap’s getting boring now.
I’d be interested to know if they’d produce a drawing like that of a male politician whose wife had been watching porn.
Oh hang on, no, they wouldn’t.
It was old some time ago. I think 5 days into the book of Genesis in fact.
Wasn’t it a manz behind all this?
He watched the porn.
While his wife was out.
Didn’t bother to mention it to her.
She probably didn’t even recognise the titles as porn.
An oversight that they ended up on the expenses claim.
Now other oh-so-funny-menz make pornified cartoons of her (reminder: it was her no-good husband that watched the porn, not her…)
Certainly, she is remiss in not checking her expenses more thoroughly. But it was the husband that was 95% at fault here. Where are the porny cartoons of him?
It is just another case of women taking the wrap for the shit menz do.
The cartoonists have got all that porn imagery in their heads that they have to get out on the page somehow. Vile.
I agree Stormy. Why isn’t there a cartoon of the guy with his legs sprawled apart having a wank in an armchair watching pornie videos with a box of tissues at his side? Oh I forgot, It’s only women who must be publicly sexually humiliated.
Yup, only women may be publicly sexually humiliated.
The media brotherhood unite.
What a load of spite.
Agree with you all.
Grrrrrrrrrr.
Gerald Scarfe does have a track record of…[damn, how do the libel laws work on the web?]…er, _being accused of_ misogyny.
This is horrible, tacky stuff. Managing to surrender the moral high ground, and make one actually sympathise with Ms Smith in this expenses row is really quite an achievement.
it’s kind of beyond crap into stellar shit, innit? i’d love to see what the cartoonist looks like.
or possibly not.
Jacqui Smith, deserves everything thrown at her.
“sexually harrass Jacqui Smith”
Get out of here. she has far worse porn under her sofa, did she claim the steam-cleaning from the taxpayer?
Jacqui Smith, is also harassing the trafficked women & girls of western & Northern Europe.
She did what I said she would do
She is a disgrace.
