The Wild West in the UK — aka #Brexit

The Wild West in the UK — Michael & Josh — #weeklycartoon

It has been a few interesting weeks in the UK. The UK prime minister Theresa May resigning, EU Elections and the Brexit party winning (or losing?), you name it, we have had it all. UK politics remind me of the old Wild West and cowboys fighting it out with each other and that gave us the idea for our latest cartoon.

Last Chance Saloon.

For non-uk viewers, scene explanation; Boris Johnson and Michael Gove, UK MP’s are shooting it out to see who wins the leader of the conservatives/temporary prime minster position. There are many more in the race, but I am taking a punt, that it will be these two who will be fighting it out in the last rounds. After all, Gove stabbed Johnson in the back when the last race took place. I’m assuming that their campaigns will be based on ‘No deal’ for Johnson and ‘Withdrawal Agreement’ for Gove, but It is a wild wild guess. Vince Cable (outgoing Liberal Democrat leader) is holding his yellow handkerchief out, so when it drops to the floor they can shoot! Of course his campaign is for a 2nd vote. Nigel Farage (Brexit Party leader with largest EU parliament members voted in), is sitting on the bench drinking a milkshake and of course shouting, as he regularly does; ‘Brexit means Brexit. Note that Jeremy Corbyn is missing, he’s still making up his mind up what the Labour Party policy is going to be over Brexit, so far it has been painful.
