Aieeeeeeeeeeee!!!! My eyeballs.

I'm really wondering about this. Did he just fancy another pop at the eurozone, or drawing a couple of pandas in a field of bamboo? Did he just think "The Euro's like an endangered species like the panda, hur hurr - bugger me there's my "joke""?

Christ, it is SO shit it's hard to express.

That looks VERY familiar. Didn't we have that a couple of years ago with the speech bubble saying "If you think we're endangered you should see Gordon Brown*"?

* or it might have said "Labour"?

I like the way the panda's talking out the corner of his mouth. He reminds me of Porridge's Grouty when he's giving out orders.

Rubbish :?

All week he seems to have been putting in even less effort than normal. Do you think he's been "working from home"?

It's his new variant on his old "Gordon Brown is shit" fallback. Any background, any characters, one says to the other "The Euro is shit" and the other says "Yes".

He's definitely been sacrificing the jokes for the backgrounds, there's been a riot of detail this week but no actual humour.

Putting aside the general shittiness of the *ahem* artwork, he's obviously being told what to come up with in order to comply with his master's voice. So much for 'freedom of the press'.

It's a common theme. From last December.

Ah, I remember those days when his cartoons weren't rendered in blinding technicolour.

Still, nice to see him portraying a gay couple in that one without resorting to cliche.

To be fair they could be expats living on the Costa del Twat or one of those other places that plays host to a conglomeration of Mail/Express reading bores.
