DescriptionDepicts Margaret Thatcher on the ground in a bunch of rubble that spells out 'CREDIBILITY'. She is holding scissors that say 'Collective Responsibility' and is glaring at Michael Heseltine above her. Heseltine is holding on of the rubble blocks with a broken chain around his wrist. He says "No hard feelings, I hope! Either it was jerry-built or I didn't know my own strength!" Leon Brittan is being squished by the rubble, holding up a sign that reads 'The buck stops here!'

[This likely refers to Thatcher's credibility being damaged due to the Westland issue and the sinking of the Belgrano. (Sourced from Gibbard's Double Decker Omnibus).]
