The rabbit was sad to see that Beau Bo D'Or - of whom he is a huge fan (link to the left for a parting collage) - has closed his site. The YouTube clip above is another collage of his best-known images. I am undoubtedly biased but one of my favourites was the (British General) election poster from last May - Disobey 6th May - words by the rabbit, artwork by Beau Bo D'Or (all seems a very long time ago, doesn't it?). Cheers, Neil and all the best for the future, You have a singular talent.

No, the Rupert Murdoch poster can be updated for the US elections coming on 2 Nov 10. Rupert is an internationalist in the true sense of the word and his Newscorp is responsible for a lot of the weirdness in US politics (along with the Koch Bros).
That is one scary ass old mug. Shivery shivers!
Great. Another blog goes bust before I get a chance to check it out!
I find it interesting that News Corp is getting trouble for its meddling in US elections.

Anyway, Beau Bo D'Or could redo this in time for the US Elections?
Laci - I'm sure Beau Bo would oblige in ordinary circumstances but I think he's been having a rough time of late...
Little Flower - It's not nice, is it?
Sybil - I know.... I keep thinking I must tidy up the list of links on sidebar as a number are no longer with us but somehow life always seems too short!
it's ok to say bullshit. or shit fuck hell etc.
BUT
I don't know what "Pram" means-i looked it up and it's either a baby carriage or boat.
so. not sure what pram means, please elaborate at your leisure.
:)
WR, I hope you don't mind me using the image as is.
Laci - I don't mind at all. Beau Bo has never minded people using his non-commercial stuff so long as he gets a credit. The relevant creation was made to be spread about!
And I've mentioned him in both posts that I have used it.
Thank you.
Yes, a Unique Blog & A GreatTalent. He Will Be Missed+What Will The Daily Mail Steal Now?
Rupert gets my vote for the most destructive media magnate the world has yet seen (and there is a lot of fecking competition for that particular title).
Badger the Koch Bros come a close second, but I would give THEM that title.
many thanks for this. Only just discovered his work - the Vettriano / Skegness image is marvellous.
