Extent1 cartoon
Creator NameGibbard; Leslie, David (1945-2010); cartoonist
DescriptionThis cartoon shows [Margaret Thatcher] observing a 'swingometer' brought from the 'central office'. The 'swingometer' reflects a Conservative Party victory, however instead of an arrow pointing to this result, it is instead a noose. Due to her election success, men behind the 'swingometer' are presenting her with a wreath, but this is also in the shape of a noose. It appears as if [James Callaghan] and [Edward Heath] are observing from a distance.
