UKIP probably thought the Red Cross Ebola Outreach programme was to stop all those Ebolans coming over here, using our hospitals.. etc

Just curious, what's so wrong with the cartoon? The satire seems to be that Cameron will do anything - including using vocal blackface - to pacify the racists/bigots in UKIP, or am I missing something?

I'm uneasy about repeating the offence - satirically intended or not - beneath an article claiming that vocal blackface is entirely unproblematic.

I see what you mean; I'd seen it in the paper where the cartoon is on page 3 and the article much later, so didn't make a specific connection.

The author of the cartoon may have had no idea that the cartoon would be posted beneath that piece, which lacks the insight that the cartoon has?
