Seeing as today is the day, a repost of a recent @bigissue.com cartoon.

Dink cartoon – Outside the front door of no.10 Downing Street Larry the Cat sits next to a mouse. Both are watching a figure that looks like a tearful Sir Keir Starmer leaving on the right of the frame. Larry says, "It just breaks my heart when they have to be rehomed."

There is a third. He makes way for another Reform candidate who has a chance against the count while he bides his time until the General Election. Only one comes to mind.

Thinking inside the box. This one appeared in 'The Critic' last month.

A bespectacled scientist holds a cardboard box in one hand and a tiny microphone in the other. He looks ahead to the viewer and says “Hi, I’m Erwin Schrödinger and welcome to my unboxing video.”

Reminds me of this cartoon by local cartooning legend Mike Williams.

A tour guide leads a group through caverns and passes a group of four stone naked bottoms sitting on stools "...and now ladies and gentlemen we are entering the very heart of Mount Rushmore."

Hooray! Happy 100th Birthday to Mel Brooks! @officialmelbrooks.bsky.social He looked amazing when I saw him in 'History of the World Part II' How does he do it? Also the Audiobook version of his autobiography is an absolute must listen for anyone interested in comedy and cinema. #melbrooks100

Guessing Al Carns is gearing up for a leadership bid judging by how often his posts are being pushed to me on Facebook. You've got to have a Tom Tugendhat/Jimmy one in these things haven't you.

No more Hockney. The 2017 Tate Britain 60 year retrospective exhibition of his, really showed how he could enthuse about a new method or school of art and absolutely master it. The greatest. R.I.P
