In a bold move that has sparked debate within the Labour Party, leader Keir Starmer has suspended four MPs, a decision brilliantly captured in Ben Jennings' latest satirical cartoon. The artwork, published in The Guardian, offers a biting commentary on the internal strife and political manoeuvring within Labour.
Starmer's Leadership Under Scrutiny
The suspension of the four MPs has raised questions about Starmer's leadership style and his strategy for uniting the party. Jennings' cartoon cleverly depicts the tension, with Starmer portrayed as a figure struggling to maintain control amidst growing dissent.
