I've always liked political cartoons; of ALL political persuasions.
I thought this one (below) was particularly good. It was originally entitled 'Wally and Vomit', but is, of course, of our fragrant Prime Minister Keir Starmer and his deputy PM David Lammy. Superb.
If you are English, or know anything about English politics, you will appreciate what a wonderful portrayal it is.
It has nothing to do with their politics, or even their party allegiances, it is simply a superb bit of comedy, in the tradition of Gillray, Rowlandson, or even Ronald Searle.
Every time I look at it, it makes me laugh (with apologies to anyone who voted for them).

Political cartoons recently have been very clever.
There's lots of material for satire just now
Haha! I don't know how they get them to look so realistic, if they were in a criminal line-up you'd know them straight away!
This one makes me smile every time I see it; not many do that.
They really are superb. And I think that's a portrait of Mrs T; top right.
