What this cartoon says

A revolving door spinning at high speed, with a blur of suits passing through it, each leaving behind a briefcase. The door is mounted on the facade of 10 Downing Street's iconic black door frame, but the number '10' has been replaced by a tally chart scratched into the wood. This communicates the absurd speed of leadership turnover and the institutional exhaustion of constant change.

+How this was made

The story of a leader who won a historic landslide only to face calls to resign less than two years later — potentially becoming the seventh PM in a decade — offers the strongest visual metaphor and broadest satirical resonance. The revolving-door nature of British leadership is universally legible and richly cartoonable. It transcends one country's politics to comment on democratic impatience and the impossibility of governing.
