Panic buying!

Pasty panic buying cartoon

(Topical cartoons part 1)

I wasn’t going to do any topical cartoons for a while as they end up on the yellow sticker shelf pretty much as soon as you’ve finished drawing them. But sometimes I just can’t resist.

A topical cartoon from a crazy week in which two woefully mishandled issues dominated the news.

Government advice for motorists to be sensible by filling up their cars and store jerry cans in the garage brought chaos and mass panic buying of petrol across the country.

Media indignation over plans to introduce VAT on all hot snacks sold over the counter (the so-called Pasty Tax) brought some bizarre party political spin as leaders declared their undying love for sausage rolls and pasties.

If you’d like to use this cartoon you can buy it over at Cartoonstock.
