The Independent’s Dave Brown, Peter Schrank and Tim Sanders at The Political Cartoon Gallery

in London.

From the Procartoonists blog :

An Independent Line – an exhibition of cartoons from The Independent newspaper, by Dave Brown, Peter Schrank and Tim Sanders, is at the Political Cartoon Gallery in London from June 18 until October 18.

Plenty of time to see some of the best UK political cartoons from the last 12 years, some of which are for sale.
