Now I'm no fan of the Tories or the Daily Mail, but I don't think either of them could ever be accused of being as racist as that map.

In my second year at university a previous occupant had left on the wall a map of the USSR which was of course was centred on the Russian empire. It was interesting to see the world from their perspective, surrounded on most sides by potential threats. It's no wonder that they needed buffer states on all sides.

I'm pretty sure that map is from the Spitting Image book from about 1985, God knows why I remember that.

 

Bloody is as well. I had that.

Lol, 1985 eh, how times have changed, publish that today and whoosh.

 

I couldn't possibly comment on how totally accurate their description of our neighbours The Magic Kingdom is

From yesterday's Daily Mail.

That's nothing. I saw a letter a few weeks ago arguing that it was a waste of taxpayers' money keeping premature babies in incubators.

 

Thought I might have mis-read it, or it was a very un-Mail like attempt by the newspaper to parody itself, but no...

Dammit! You lot beat me to it :)

 

That was a great book, from when Spitting Image was at the top of its game. Great stuff!
