Canvassing yesterday in Harrow brought to mind one of my favourite political cartoons, by Chris Radley from the 1980s, which still says an awful lot about politics in just two panels:
Chris Radley was the cartoonist for the SDP’s weekly newspaper, the Social Democrat, for many years and his work was featured by the Journal of Liberal History in 2003.

Can anybody else see Mark through this image?
I suspect he may have taken a photo of this picture in a glass-fronted case, showing his reflection.
My theory is that he scanned it from a piece of grease-proof paper. while dozing on the scanner.
I believe it was a prophetic vision of the future by the visionary cartoonist to include Mark.
“Can anybody else see Mark through this image?”
Yes. He’s holding a camera to his eye. Cartoon on light-box or monitor.
Good spot! Actually cartoon on wall with glass in front of it.
