From B3TA.com

Mark Thomas is doing a new show about the recent bribe-a-lord scandals and wants YOU to design some cards to put in phone boxes and hand out at shows. ‘Hot new peer in town’, ‘Rent my ermine’ – you know the sort of thing.

(I don’t think this means you put them in phone boxes or hand them out in shows.)

You don’t have to make a submission via B3TA.com, you can do it direct by emailing ‘info at markthomasinfo.com’ but I don’t think there are prizes for direct submissions.

There are prizes for those entering via B3TA but if you’re not a member already you won’t be able to submit anything until Tuesday which, I believe, is near the deadline for submissions. (There is a time delay on new registrations.)

I’ve posted a few on B3TA in the competition page just to satisfy my ego  but have disqualified myself because I was (very) tenuously linked to organising the compo and I’d sent the images direct already.

Here’s a series of 3 I’ve done, all based on reworking a few verses from Victoria Wood’s song ‘Let’s Do It’.

and here’s one that’s a bit more rough and ready:

It’s about time Parliament had their own barcode system in place – just to speed up all these transactions, whether legal or illegal.

A tweak and an update of an old image to mark the House of Lords overruling Lord Justice Moses and Sullivan’s decision that the Serious Fraud Office had acted unlawfully in dropping the investigation into the BAE Systems slush fund.

Dreadful pun.
