Photographs of Eleanor Wintour and her four children in the family kitchen (including her daughter Anna Wintour).

The cartoon is made up of three panels. The first shows Nigel Lawson walking down the street, shoving aside people around him. They are all holding collection tins, while one has his cap outstreched. He is shouting 'Out of my way, scroungers!' The second panel shows a similar scene. People are standing around him, looking solemn, with outstreched hats and collection tins, while he walks on saying 'Bah! Humbug!' The third panel shows Lawson, now with a completely different attitude, handing out money to everyone. A crowd has gathered around him with their collection tins, smiling. Lawson's head is turned around toward a woman at the end of the street who is labelled "ELECTION". Nigel Lawson is saying 'Don't spend it all at once, lads - Oh! Hello, Honey! Didn't see you standing there!'

A five panel cartoon set during an 'Election Ball'. Harold Wilson and Edward Heath stand in women's clothing. A group of men approach, greeting them under the names Harriet and Edwina. The second panel shows the group of men following Harriet. Clearly she is the main attraction of the ball, where meanwhile Edwina stands alone in the foreground holding a handkerchief and sobbing. The third panel indicates that time has passed. Edwina, with tears in her eyes, says to Harriet (who is arm in arm with a man): "I'm strong, dedicated, honest, with qualities of leadership - yet YOU get their vote!!!" Edwina then demands in the next panel that Harriet "Let me [Heath] in on your secret!!!" In the final panel, Edwina finally acknowledges the halo [possibly a ring of smoke from Wilson's pipe?] which floats above Harriet's head. Asking what it is, it is revealed as "The Wilson ring of confidence!!"
