Scope and content
Harold Wilson, James Callaghan, Denis Winston Healey, Roy Harris Jenkins and Barbara Castle are depicted walking in Roman dress. Wilson leads with his pipe and the other four creep behind him carry swords. Callaghan, the closest to Wilson, holds his weapon high above the Prime Minster's head.
[News from 13 May: Harold Wilson dropped Home Secretary James Callaghan from his inner cabinet after Callaghan had sided with the TUC in opposing reforms announced in Barbara Castle's White Paper 'In Place of Strife'. At least 100 MPs were rebelling and there had been an attempted coup by Labour left-wingers to topple Mr. Wilson.] (Source: The University of Kent, British Cartoon Archive)
