Whodunit indeed. Could have been any one of them.
More likely, all of them.

1983: A matter of perception

This is an unusually reflective cartoon. Obviously, their lives really are lousy. To question that by blaming Western Media is in itself biased.

1985: Circumstantial evidence

Parasites on your back can reveal your past. The rhino on the right appears to display the unlikely history of visiting the Arctic.

Re: The Pages of Punch

All of the cartoonists featured in Punch magazine are geniuses in my view. They never fail to raise a laugh.

Not the most effective chat-up line.

1984: Progress?

This is an unlikely scenario. What is the cartoonist getting at? Is this pro, or anti-feminist? It’s hard to tell. If it’s pro then its not in very good taste.

Re: The Pages of Punch

1984: Dilemma in Sherwood Forest

This cartoon is another example of transposing modern concepts into situation set in the past, literature or biblical sources. A real Robin Hood would not consider such a question. The rich were surely fair game whether newly acquired or not.

1984: May the sauce be with you

Both the solicitor and his client are the sort of trouble that the on-duty police can well do without.

1988: Unruly school kids

Violence against teachers was a feature of the late eighties but the cartoonist has committed a gross exaggeration. I’m not sure about the current situation. There certainly will be differences between individual schools.
