Cartoons of the week 20/10 - 26/10

A slideshow of the week’s cartoons

In Saturday’s cartoon, Alex Salmond draws the SNP under the Nato umbrella. In Sunday’s piece, David Cameron sends Andrew Mitchell on his bike. Monday’s cartoon has a laugh with The Scottish Government’s ongoing battle over trident and Nato.

The current Jimmy Savile investigation taking place at the BBC is the subject of a particularly chilling cartoon from Tuesday, while Wednesday’s cartoon encapsulates a bad day for Alex Salmond. Thursday’s cartoon shows the Scottish Government looking a little desperate as the referendum looms, and Friday’s shows the Olympic dream slipping away from the Conservatives.
