Warts and All – Ten Years of the Good Friday Agreement
In the ten years since the Good Friday Agreement a lot of politics has been talked and played. It is safe to say that the twists and turns in the long roads of Government since the Good Friday Agreement have sometimes had to be seen to be believed.
Cartoonist John Kennedy casts an ironic eye over the vagaries of Irish politics: the result is a riotous assembly of politicians with one foot on thin ice and the other firmly in their mouth.
John Kennedy’s work has been widely published in the US and Irish press, and is annually featured at the Féile an Phobail festival. He shows that political lampoonery in the tradition of William Hogarth is alive and well and his ‘quick on the draw’ cartoons are just as ready to make us laugh at our politicians’ foibles.
