Scope and content
Two men are angrily gesticulating towards a large cage on wheels. One, labelled 'BACK BENCH', is holding a rifle, while pointing in fury with his left hand. The other man, in a chair labelled 'PORT EMPLOYERS', is aiming his gun toward the cage. The cage, labelled 'INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS LAW', has two men inside. One looks incensed, and is screaming and groping through the bars. The other is attempting to hold him back, holding a white flag in his other hand. On a wall next to the gunmen is a sign reading, 'THATCHER ARMCHAIR SAFARIS HOSPITALITY SUITE WE BRING THE BEASTS TO YOU!'. What looks like Arthur Scargill's head is mounted on the wall. Thatcher is standing on the edge of the scene, in a safari suit. Her hands are behind her back and her head is held high in pride.
