Margaret Thatcher stands in the 'Monetarism Underworld' cave, next to the personified Election Prospects, Growth, and Employment. James Prior, an unknown man, and Norman Fowler [left to right], holding harps, are ascending out of the cave with nervous expressions, [representing Orpheus]. Dogs with the heads of Geoffrey Howe and Keith Joseph [left to right] are sat in the corner.

Context: the cartoon appears to suggest that Thatcher has gotten rid of key figures including the three men leaving, but that is actually a blessing for them, as Thatcher's pursuit of monetarism is dooming the economy and thus her election prospects.

There is a rough outline of the illustration on back.
