Maybe the reason the UK has not yet backslided completely into deranged rightwing nationalism and populism unlike our American and Brazilian cousins is because of people like Ian Hislop and programs like Have I Got News for You. It’s difficult to take the lying bastards seriously.

My latest books cartoon for @theguardian.com

Title: Just announced! Three new Gruffalo books commissioned from bestselling authors!

Lee Chilld:
The Gruffalo just wants a quiet life, but when a crime syndicate moves into the deep dark wood, he must use his terrible claws and the terrible teeth in his terrible jaws to protect the fellow.

Sally Rooney:
The Gruffalo moves to contemporary Dublin. He
ill ever see past his orange eyes, purple prickles and poisonous wart.

Kazuo Ishiguro:
After a long absence, the gruffalo returns to the forest and attempts to make sense of his past. Encounters with a mouse, a fox, an owl and a snake uncover long-buried memories, regrets and revelations.

A few voices - almost all former Brexiters - are now popping up to issue warnings. Oh you don't want that debate again, we'll fuck you up. But in fact the position of the reactionary right is as weak as its been for years and the position of progressives is shockingly robust. If not now, when?

Butterbutt. An older comic.

A four-panel comic titled "yellow-rumped warbler poem". In panel 1, a yellow-rumped warbler stands on a branch in a late autumn scene, and says "Fall is here." In panel 2, the warbler watches a brown leaf fall to the ground, and says "Winter's near." In panel 3, the warbler faces the viewer as brown leaves fall, and says "Need some cheer?" In panel 4, the warbler is showing its luminous yellow rump, and cheerfully says "See my rear."
