@UoKSpecialColls @BritishCartoonA @UniKentArchives if I use the right account... let's just take the Willies advice and hide all evidence of a mistake...

[The Cartoon Museum @Cartoonmuseumuk]

On 28 August, cartoonists @mistressofline, @bobscartoons and @MartinRowson will discuss the political cartooning arena including the challenges of making it as a visual satirist and the (lack of) inclusivity in newspaper cartooning. Find out more:

A tribute to the wonderful cartoonist #JohnJensen here; https://t.co/OVeud2V0WB … @procartoonists @BritishCartoonA @kaltoons @PunchBooks @Cartoonmuseumuk @CartoonistsGB #cartoonist #cartoons

[The Cartoon Museum @Cartoonmuseumuk]

Brilliant cartoon by the late John Jensen still as relevant and funny today as when he did it in 1970. Done in response to a cartoon by JAK which is in the museum's collection. This though part of the @BritishCartoonA 's collection. Rewards close reading
