This is your best cartoon. I have to tell you that, after PD failed in his challenge, I saw a potato with eyes, nose and down turned mouth impaled on a fence post. Great message.

I agree, this is one of your best and just nails it. Your cartoons always retain a certain respect for the subject amidst rye visual commentary.

Natasha's art is far removed from images of impaled rotting spuds and the other competitive awfulness as per the tabloids - I can only imagine how those kind of representations impact the children, wife/husband, brothers, sisters and extended family of the targets as well as the readers.

With respect, what about the hell hole conditions imposed by Scott Morrison and Peter Dutton on refugees held on Nauru and Manus Island, denied any semblance of fair treatment? They too have families that suffer from their treatment, including lack of access to appropriate medical and mental health care. And what about the 13,000 refugees in Australia that have recently had their SRSS benefits withdrawn by Peter Dutton? They too are and have families that are suffering. Perhaps SM's and PD's families and friends need to know what they are doing, in contravention of Australia's obligations under International Human Rights Conventions to which Australia is a signatory.
