Updated Boris Johnson, George Bush images, created from scratch with not a pixel of original campaign material used.
The silhouette may look similar but it is a ‘vector’ drawing created using a photo as a guide.

UPDATE : My posters are based on The Daily Telegraph’s ‘Boris Johnson In Quotes’ rather than the full article in The Spectator which was the source of their quote.
So here’s a small correction :The quote used is taken from his own newspaper, The Daily Telegraph here. This seems to be taken out of context from The Spectator but what’s good enough for The Telegraph to publish is good enough for me :-)

I may come up with an alternative later for those who don’t want to use the quote, maybe not.

UPDATE - In the interest of transparency and fairness, I have removed the Spectator full quote images and replaced the Spectator ‘warmonger’ images with those featuring a very similar quote, taken from this, penned by Boris in The Telegraph nearly one year after his Spectator article :

Bush owes Blair – and must deliver

In a hotly contested field, the most dismal awakening of my life took place yesterday morning, alone, hungover, in a hotel bedroom in Tel Aviv, when I found that the television was still burbling from the night before and that Don King, the infamous boxing promoter with the conviction for assault and the Van der Graaf Generator hair was on screen announcing to an appalled planet that the American people had awarded a second term of office to the cross-eyed Texan warmonger George Dubya Bush.

If ever there was a moment for burying your head in the many superfluous hotel pillows, and issuing a groan of self-pity, this was it.

Not four more years of a man so serially incompetent that he only narrowly escaped selfassassination by pretzel, and also managed to introduce American torturers to Iraqi jails. Who on earth, I moaned, can conceivably have supported this maniac with his monochrome Manichaean rhetoric that has done so much to encourage the nasty strain of anti-Americanism that now afflicts so much of the world?

Here’s the link.
