Actually feel proud to be from Suffolk for once. Fire! Monkeys! Neanderthals!
Haha this is amazing!

Sticker depicting actor Divine holding a pistol. Text reads "Destroy Fascism - Eat Shit Nazi Scum" and has a rainbow flag and a black flag in the upper left with the words "Antihomophobe Action"
Woke up thinking about this sticker that we've got in the archive here:

Whether it’s paracetamol or something else, Trump and co are perpetuating the idea autism is wrong and disability is an individual’s responsibility to avoid. It’s anti-science but it’s deeply ableist at its core. The goal is for non-disabled to be afraid and disabled people to be ashamed.
This is how much the price of food has risen in 5 years... 🤯
🥛Milk, eggs and cheese: +47%
🍖 Meat: +35%
🧈 Oil and butter: +60%
🍞 Cereal and bread: +34%
🍓 Fruit: +26%
🥦 Vegetables: +35%
2029 Wes Streeting LOTO: "Prime Minister Farage needs to get a grip on the construction of Britain's behind-schedule and over-budget concentration camp infrastructure"
A baby is shrouded in plastic wrapping with a white label on it and the stamp of the hospital.
Shrouded infants who have passed away in Gaza lie on a surgical tray. There are six in blue and white wrapping.
The label says:
Date of birth: September 13, 2025
Date of death: September 14, 2025.
Because that’s Gaza.

A 6 panel comic. This image shows 4 panels. Panel 1: A wrapped bunch of peonies. Text: ‘I’ve been craving abundance’. Panel 2: The same bunch of peonies in a vase, they have opened into full bloom. Text: ‘I bought a bunch of peonies the size of my head’. Panel 3: A large box of fruit labelled Crowdfarming. The fruits are apricots and cherries. Text: I ordered 2.5kg of apricots and cherries for my birthday. Panel 4: A stack of library books, some of them look rather hefty. Text: I borrowed 6 hardback books to last me 2 weeks.
The final 2 panels of a 6 panel comic are on this page. Panel 5: The bunch of peonies in a vase is shown from a different angle. There is a bowl of apricots and cherries next to it. Text: It seems to make no sense, with the PIP cuts coming. I’m set up to lose £3000 a year. Panel 6: The bunch of peonies is in the centre of the panel with the bowl of fruit on one side, and the stack of books on the other. Text: But it’s because of the PIP cuts. Abundance makes me feel safer, if only for a while.
This is the 3rd of my collaborative comics and Tom Wrigley has done an absolutely amazing job illustrating it! I drafted this back in May and the situation has changed since then - the benefits bill passed in a reduced state so I won’t lose as much. But others will. So we continue to fight.
Four Panel Comic Panel 1: Three overlapping flaming cat head in reds, purples and blues. Text: Ceding violently occupied land Panel 2: A crying cat, purple and red with yellow stripes. Text: To the aggressors Panel 3: A peacefully sleeping blue cat, covered in stars and surrounded by flames. Text: Is not Panel 4: A black cat with stars, also aflame, golden eyes staring out. Text: A peace deal.
Watercolour and pencil sketch of young fox sniffing the ground. Labelled Resident Fox
I drew the young fox that’s been poking around my estate for a while. The adorable little shit has figured out how to open my fox-proof food waste bin.
An 8 panel comic about Gaza. Panel 1 shows a woman holding her emaciated child. Text: What can I say in the face of these horrors Panel 2 shows a news feed on a mobile phone. It reads ‘Latest: Vatican News: Death Toll in Gaza nears 59000’, Al Jazeera: ‘Israel has killed nearly 19000 children’ Text above the image: Words are inadequate. They fail me. Panel 3 shows a hand drawing a heart on a piece of paper. Text: Instead all I can do is put my heart down on this paper. Panel 4 shows 2 hands folding the piece of paper with the red heart drawing clearly showing. Text: Fold it lovingly and with care
The 2nd page of an 8 panel comic. Panel 5 shows a woman bending down to put a small paper origami boat into a stream. The boat has a heart drawn on it. Text: And release it. Panel 6 shows a wide river filled with origami boats with hearts drawn on them. Text: In the hope that if enough of us do the same something will change. Panel 7 shows an origami boats with hearts in the colours of the Palestinian flag. Text: From the river to the sea Panel 8 says in large letters FREE PALESTINE. The letters are in the colours of the Palestinian flag.

A book titled "Outdoor Pigs: How to Make them Pay."
those damned outdoor pigs can't keep getting away with this
Four panel comic Panel 1: Cosmic cat with three eyes. TEXT: They did nothing Panel 2: Black cat head covered in stars with a skull in their mouth moving through three triangles. TEXT: Violent Colonisation for 77 Years. The Government is complicit. Panel 3: A blue cat with yellow stripes and three eyes across it's body screams at a star in a red torn sky. TEXT: Palestine will be freed Panel 4: A cat with a flaming third eye in a fireball in the sky surrounded by stars. TEXT: By the people
The one thing that’s making me madder than anything else around disabled people’s fight to stop welfare cuts is that it’s only us fighting. We see allies standing loudly for trans rights and Palestine -as they should - but where are they in our fight? Why don’t we matter as much?
(I know why)

A 7 panel comic in muted pastels and rich blues and burgundies. Panel 1 shows a dog and cat sleeping in a basket while a mouse sneaks past them. Text: “I love cats and dogs” Panel 2 shows the cat in close-up, opening one eye to look at the mouse. The mouse is sweating nervously. Panel 3 shows the cat and dog back asleep in the basket and smiling. The mouse is sleeping on top of the dog. Text: ‘Regardless of whether or not they catch mice’ Panel 4 shows a newspaper in a paper rack. The headline reads ‘skivers vs strivers’, there are two subheadings reading ‘benefit cheats’ and ‘make Britain great again’. Text: “Yet we are told that disabled people need to work to be of value”
Panel 5: A disabled woman in a dress wearing glasses is lying on a sofa looking drained. A walking stick is on the floor. Text: “But many of us are unable to work. No matter what rhetoric the government uses.” Panel 6 has no images. Written in large white letters on a blue background it says “DISABLED PEOPLE ARE VALUABLE” Panel 7 shows the dog, cat and mouse asleep together in the same basket again. They look happier than ever. There is a puddle of drool under the dog’s mouth. Text: “Our value does not depend on our ability to work.” All 7 comics are watermarked @bookcoverdrawing and @claudiamatosa
This is my 2nd collaboration comic, this time with the wonderful @claudiamatosa.com
I drafted this comic before the Benefits Bill passed but the message remains depressingly relevant.
‘Skivers vs strivers’ is back in the press and I just want to remind all disabled people, you are valuable.
Loose sketchy drawing of a pair of headphones with handlettered text underneath saying ‘I keep waiting for things to get better’
Thank you Frances, your fighting on behalf of us all has been nothing short of heroic. I wish I felt optimistic about the future but at least this bill has been watered down from what it was.
Four panel comic. Panel 1: A little cat is surrounded by lightning bolts. TEXT: Palestine action humiliated you and put paint on a plane Panel 2: The cat is bigger and wearing a red superhero eye mask. The lightning bolts have become flames. TEXT: You continue to aid and abet a genocide. Panel 3: The cat now has a flag cape and the flames reach across the panel behind them. TEXT: Exactly who is terrorising who? Panel 4: The cat's cape is a Palestinian flag and is shouting "Free Palestine".
With just over a week to go to the vote to cut disability benefits, now is the best time to write to your MP to ask them to vote against.

Not to mention how hard it is to even get on the housing list in the first place.
Food banks are at breaking point.
❗ 2.9 MILLION emergency food parcels were provided by our community of food banks last year.
This should be a huge wake-up call for the UK government. Read more in @newstatesman.com

Totally understand. It’s just shouting into the void at that point isn’t it?
I think it’s important to use every weapon in your arsenal. I got a lovely letter back from my MP about PIP cuts today, so maybe I’m feeling biased because I had a positive experience. Having said that I write to my MP a lot less than I used to.
Thank you!! It was so good to work with Holly again. Made me miss you all.
