The upside to all of this is that Steve Bell's Cameron cartoons are getting better. I don't think they'll ever top his hysterically funny Blair ones, but they'll do.

His Major ones are probably the best, along with spitting image managed to illustrate the man completely.

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.

The Major ones are quite good. But they weren't quite outrageous enough to match Blair. Adding his Cherie Blair to it usually made for some good ones, too.

Was always fairly disturbed about the Cherie ones. Buying into the rights Anti Women media message.

I sometimes wondered about that myself, but I could always see what he was getting at. He captures the venal false flatterty she projects very well. She is entirely self-serving and he nailed it.
