All my GC cartoons are in the public domain, so feel free to screen-grab them & send to your friends. To the left you can see the " Feminist Fight- Back" page, where all these cartoons are being stored.

On this website is a fraction of my work from the last 40 years. Many of my illustrations were published in the 'British Small Press' (before we all had the internet) in the 70s and 80s, and I've included some on this site.

Between 2015 and 2020 I have been a regular political cartoonist for the UK's only Socialist daily newspaper, the Morning Star, until  I was ' no-platformed' by them for a feminist cartoon called "Endgame", which they published, and then changed their mind, knowing it was a comment on the potential changes to the GRA and the erosion of Women's rights in the 2010 Equality Act.

I want to thank the journalists at Spiked for their support, in particular Joanna Williams,  in her 'War on Women' article. Also the new UK Free Speech Union, Canadian journalist Meghan Murphy for interviewing me for feministcurrent.com, and Uncommon Ground Media. Also DefendFeminists.net,  WLRN, PeakTrans, and all the other feminist sites and platforms, not least spinster.xyz,  where I have recieved so much support. 

And thank goodness for Private Eye! Here's their article in support, in 'Street of Shame':

(But you can see it below)!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Another Tasty Morsel
Another Tasty Morsel
Another Tasty Morsel - to commemorate the visit of the Chinese Premier to the UK, 20-24 October 2015.A representation of China's progressing world domination. Not published by the Morning Star because of the paper's reluctance to be seen to criticise any actions by communist countries.
'Let Me In' from 2015.

As fast as Germany opened it's borders to the first wave of Syrian refugees, other European countries were rushing to throw up fences to keep them out.

Published in the Morning Star, it shows a child's hand holding a teddy up to peer over a border fence. This has always been the most popular picture in my one-woman exhibitions.

The Labour Leadership candidates have signed a pledge to expel members who get pronouns wrong. It's caused a Twitter backlash with the hashtag 'ExpelMeToo'.
Endgame
Endgame
This cartoon is called 'Endgame' because it could be the last debate by Feminists in the western World about whether women can protect their safe spaces - for those rich enough and free enough to have the luxury to debate, of course. I understand that the Morning Star have issued an apology for publishing this cartoon! Better than being wiped out in your own editorial meeting by someone who objected to it, eh?
"Parasites" -published in the Morning Star in January 2020

'So good they used it twice'.
This is my iconic cartoon of the 2016 Euro Referendum vote, which clashed with Glastonbury. Will he vote or won't he?
The Morning Star used this 2 weeks before the vote, and again on the day itself.

Fluchtlinge = Refugees. Sad to say the Nazi spider is still lurking under the EU rug.
