Margaret Thatcher is speaking to the press whilst holding a chequered flag to start an impending car race. She says "Yes, we had a perfectly lovely lunch, thank you, and as you can see, I've come out to shake the crumbs off the table cloth!" The three cars in the race have licence plates that read 'Tory 1', 'Tory 2', and 'Tory 3'. Next to them is a policeman and a dog.

Clarke; Peter (1935-2012); cartoonist and illustratorIllustration originally accompanying an article titled 'Cherie Booth's gun crime film is a sad reminder of New Labour's fatal flaws', by John Kampfner, published in the Guardian, 05 August 2009. The article discusses the Labour party's great failure of its micro-fixation, free of context, in relation to Cherie Booth's documentary The War Against Street Weapons. The illustration shows an arm, dressed in a suit, holding a set of gold scales of justice. In the slightly higher swinging bowl is a lone man in a hood pointing a gun to the lower bowl containing four people with their hands up in the air with shocked expressions. Cutting with published illustration supplied.
