Barbados Free Press Cartoons
A BFP reader requested a re-print of one of our header cartoons and that developed into this page where sooner or later you’ll see some of your old favourites. We’ll add a few every week in no particular order.
In the case of headers and cartoons that don’t fit this page size, we’ll put up a thumbnail that will take you to the full-sized cartoon.
Enjoy!

I think Nasia, what we will see is nothing but an increase in unemployment as is already evident and a Prime Minister who continues to lie to the people of Barbados and then be ratted out by the Governor of the Central Bank (God bless her heart) and you can expect an election to be called in 2010 where the DLP will be washed out of office like they were never there, however what will be left is a spade of increased debt and evidence of economic recklessness.
Have a good day

u know it is interestin how you all sit around and cast around blame u allow yurselves to be sucked into the absurdities of campignes around election time and then when all the ‘glamour’ of elections have passed and you are left with people who cant tell adam from eve you want to complain you guys put them there so get over it and deal with it. whining can’t do a damn thing now. the only thing left to do now is w8 for the next election and this time listen and analyze wat your’e politicians are sayin so u can make the best decision. that simple.
