“Round the Election Poll”, cartoon by LG Illingworth, for Punch, 1945.

Post World War Two, the first British election in ten years was set for 5th July 1945, but the results were delayed until the 26th, to allow counting overseas ballots, largely from service personnel. Illingworth represented the contending sides as maypole dancers, all running in different directions.

Easly recognisable are Winston Churchill, Clement Attlee, Anthony Eden, Lord Beaverbrook (owner of the Daily Express, whose headline warning that a Labour victory would amount to the 'Gestapo in Britain', adapted from a passage in a radio election speech by Churchill on 4th June proved a huge mistake and completely misjudged the public mood), Ernest Bevin, Herbert Morrison and Aneurin "Nye" Bevan.

The 1945 United Kingdom general election, called by then Prime Minister Winston Churchill, took place on 5th July 1945. The governing Conservative Party sought to maintain their position within parliament, but faced challenges from public opinion about the future of the United Kingdom in the post-war period. Churchill lost the election to the Labour Party in a landslide, making Clement Attlee the new Prime Minister.

Leslie Gilbert Illingworth (2 September 1902 – 20 December 1979) was a Welsh political cartoonist best known for his work for the Daily Mail and as chief cartoonist for Punch. His first work was published in the satirical magazine Punch in 1927.

The University of Kent - British Cartoon: Archive notes Illingworth also produced work for the Ministry of Defence, and on Bernard Partridge’s death in 1945 he replaced him as Second Cartoonist on Punch, working alongside Ernest Shepard. In 1949 Illingworth became Cartoonist on Punch, alternating with Norman Mansbridge. In 1948 Illingworth became a member of the Punch Table, but considered himself uneducated, and was very shy at the weekly lunches, where the subject of the cartoon was decided. When Malcom Muggeridge was editor of Punch from 1953 to 1957, Illingworth would sit at the Punch table between him and John Betjeman. “They were very kind to me”, he recalled: “I was conscious that I was a monumental bore, so I used to concentrate on the claret and keep as quiet as a cabbage.”

Further Reading:

• “Churchill in Punch” by Gary L. Stiles, published by Unicorn in 2022 (AmazonUK Affiliate Link)

Punch featured Winston Churchill in more than 600 cartoons between 1899 to 1988. Some were laudatory, some were critical, and others, like the man himself, usually humorous.

Churchill in Punch catalogues all the cartoons and provides a context of the events and people being satirised and places them in historical perspective.

Early on, Punch often made Churchill into a caricature of himself, promoting exaggerated images of his physical characteristics such as his forward leaning gait, his prominent jutting jaw, his cigar, and his hands on hips when speaking. His hobbies were frequently caricatured such as his love of polo, painting, writing skills and brick-laying.

Publisher Unicorn describes this book as “not just for fans of Churchill, but for anyone interested in history, British life over the past 120 years, media and their response to government and politicians, cartoon aficionados and general society. It is an easy and fun read for the casual reader but also the academic who wants more depth through the appendices and an analysis of major world events through the eye of Punch.”

Munster will play the Crusaders in a novel fixture next February

The inaugural 'Clash of Champions' between Munster and the Crusaders, the Super Rugby champions, is scheduled to take place in 2024. Crusaders Munster Rugby

The New Zealand team, headquartered in Canterbury, defeated the Chiefs in Waikato over the weekend to win their seventh straight Super Rugby title.

It was confirmed this morning that they would play Munster, the URC winners, on February 3rd of the following year.

Although it is uncommon for club teams from the northern and southern hemispheres to play each other, the Gallagher Premiership and the URC expressed support for the notion of a Rugby Club World Cup last year.

Rob Penney, the new head coach of the Crusaders, will be making a return visit to his old haunts for the match in February 2024. The New Zealander coached Munster from 2012 to 2014. Penney will take over as the All Blacks coach following the World Cup, succeeding the phenomenally successful Scott Robertson.

We are delighted to welcome the Super Rugby champions to Munster, hosting a groundbreaking fixture against the Crusaders,said Ian Flanagan, CEO of Munster Rugby.

We hold a proud and rich history of playing touring sides and I've no doubt next February's game will be a special occasion for all involved.

The Crusaders are thrilled to be coming over to Ireland and the UK to face some stiff competition away from home," stated Crusaders CEO Colin Mansbridge.

NZ and Australian clubs have been working on the World Club Competition for years, so when an opportunity for Super teams to play Northern Hemisphere counterparts came up, it was just too good to pass up, Mansbridge stated.

Munster is especially tough competition since they have a reputation of giving visiting teams a difficult time. Additionally, Rob Penney, our new head coach, coached there, so that's a bonus, Mansbridge added.

if anyone's like, interested in wisely understanding/interpreting/analysing the bible, i seriously can't recommend this book enough one billion million times. You CAN Handle The Truth by Chad M Mansbridge (hes got a legendary name)

The title is based on the verse from 2 timothy - "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth." (2 Timothy 2:15)

so its saying, like: you ARE cabable of parsing and interpreting and wisely handling the truth (bible). and here's the tools to equip you with how. i like that a lot.

its got 3 main sections: what does it say, what does it mean, and what does it matter, each containing a whole bunch of smaller sections (a few pages long) covering lots of good topics.

Its important foundational stuff for everyone, really, and its written in a way that feels really engaging and accessible (in a very conversational tone!!) so YEAH! highly recommend this book c:

GEOFFREY HAMILTON RHOADES Historical

GEOFFREY HAMILTON RHOADES was born in 1898 in Balham, London, to a middle-class family. His father, Walter, was a senior civil servant and author, mainly of boys’ adventure stories. As a youth, Walter was quite an athlete, both as a runner and a cricketer.

Geoffrey attended Dulwich College where his education involved the Latin language and Roman and Greek culture which included drawing from classical casts. After Dulwich he spent two years at Clapham Art School 1915-17 under the direction of Leonard Charles Nightingale 1851-1941 before serving in the Mercantile Marine from 1917 to 1919 as a naval wireless operator.

On completing his war service he took a portfolio of drawings to show Professor Tonks at the then, most prestigious Slade School, University of London, who accepted him onto the course immediately. His landscapes, figure studies and flower paintings reflect his love of natural history and interest in the classical world.

Later, at the conclusion of his time at the School, Tonks remarked: “You have something which I have not – imagination.”

During the Slade years between 1919 and 1924 he socialized with both fellow students and a number of established artists at Barnett Freedman’s studio off the Tottenham Court Road, among whom were Albert Houthueson, Percy Horton, Charles Mahoney and James Laver who was just beginning his work at the Victoria and Albert Museum (Keeper of Prints, Drawings and Paintings for the Victoria and Albert Museum between 1938 and 1959). During this Slade period Geoffrey met fellow artist Charles Mahoney, they met at the bedside of Barnett Freedman’s during one of Barnett’s serious illnesses.

Garden at Bedford Hill (Balham) 1920s

Rhoades: Hobby Horse, wood engraving 1921.

A fellow student of Geoffrey’s at the Slade was John Mansbridge through whom he met author and architect Christopher Turnor ( MP, JP, DL  1809 – 1886)) and his wife Sarah who were in the process of opening their large country house, Stoke Rochford in Lincolnshire, for summer schools. Geoffrey was invited to go there and make paintings for an indefinite length of time. He stayed for two years (1925-27) painting family portraits, some murals, landscapes and making many drawings. The Turnor’s were very kind to him and he became very much part of the household.

Geoffrey moved back to London in 1928 and was invited to undertake some teaching at the Working Man’s College in Crowndale Road. Founded in 1854 the college was amongst the earliest adult education institutions established in the United Kingdom.  Geoffrey and Charles Mahoney were now living in Kensington Crescent, W14, a charming Regency crescent, now demolished. In 1930 they went on holiday with Percy Horton to Blackmore Farm near Marden in Kent where Mahoney made studies of the orchard for the Morley College murals.

Rhoades: The Offering 1929

In 1934 Geoffrey married Joan Jenner whom he is reputed to have met at a Royal College Ball, and they remained together until his death in 1980. Joan was in the Ministry of Agriculture with Mrs Horton, both were fond of doing Torquemada and The Listener crosswords and won prizes. Tirzah recalled that visiting Brick House Joan would sing songs in German pottering around the house. Their son, Peter, was born in 1938 while they were still resident in London.

Rhoades: Winter Afternoon Chalk Farm 1935

Geoffrey’s reputation must have been high because in 1935 the Tate (Britain) bought his “Winter Afternoon, Chalk Farm” landscape, but, after Peter’s birth and the onset of the Second World War blitz, they moved house to Stebbing in Essex.

Rhoades: The yard at Cranford Stebbing 1940s

Rhoades: Landscape 1940s

Buckinghamshire the Rhoades family made a final move to Cuddington on the Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire border. This change of location was stimulated by the necessity of being closer to Oxford. Percy Horton had been appointed Ruskin Master of Drawing at the Ruskin School, University of Oxford, and had invited Joan to be his secretary there. He subsequently engaged Geoffrey as a tutor at the School and this began a very long relationship with the Ruskin and Oxford for both of them, Joan continued to be secretary with Percy Horton followed by Richard Naish, and, just before her retirement in 1974, Philip Morsberger. Both Joan and Geoffrey were much admired and loved at the Ruskin which was then housed in the Ashmolean Museum.

Rhoades: In Memoriam to Esme 1966

The final phase of Geoffrey’s life was lived happily at Seven Stars, Cuddington with Joan and his son Peter who is also an artist. This concluding period, however, was marred by the tragic death of his sister, Esmee, in a traffic accident near the family home in Balham, which affected him very deeply. He steadily produced landscape and mythological figure compositions in oils and in a variety of graphic media. Joan developed quite a large garden with both horticultural expertise and aesthetic judgement, a lovely foil to the art work of her husband and son. Geoffrey continued to teach at the Ruskin School until his retirement in 1972 and also conducted therapeutic art classes at St John’s Hospital, Stone, through the 1960s. He died, after suffering from cancer, in 1980.

For me, someone who has no knowledge of computer programming and the sort, it’s a very slow, tedious and boring watch. ‘Tron’, unfortunately, didn’t take my interest whatsoever. Not helped by the poor special effects (they get a pass due to it being an 1982 release; though I’m not convinced it’s good either way) and forgettable cast performances, it’s not a premise that’s easy to get into if you have no prior understanding of coding etc. There is some intrigue in there, but not nearly enough to satisfy my viewing pleasure – it felt like a much longer run time than 96 minutes, that’s for sure. All cool if you love this, but I very much didn’t. Hopefully the 2010 sequel gives the concept a major boost. CinemaSerf: I saw this again yesterday – it’s 40 years old! I didn’t see it at the time, I was one of those kids who hadn’t the slightest interest in “Space Invaders” nor did I ever have an Atari, but I do recall the fuss that was being made about Disney’s first foray into the wor...

That's another book read and removed from my towering TBR pile. Here's my 5* book review of Master and Apprentice by Susan Mansbridge. *** If you enjoy fantasy novels that invest a lot of time in world building, you’ll love Master and Apprentice. Don’t get me wrong; that isn’t this novel’s only merit. The magical rules of this world seem original and well-rooted in its past. The apprentice of the title, Reez, is a well-painted character with understandable faults, strengths, and reactions. We want him to succeed and feel for him when he faces upset and obstacles. There’s a slow burn in this novel that gathers momentum in the final third, leading to an exciting and devastating climax. The ending and the epilogue perfectly set things up for the next novel in the series. Brilliant. *** The blurb: Millenia have passed since the great Mage War which devastated the land of Zelannor. As they struggled to survive the terrible catastrophe, the surviving Mages decided to divide magic into three disciplines, so that no one person could ever hold such power again. Years later, Reez, a boy of 12, is apprenticed to Wicton, the Master of green magic, a force concerning all things that are planted and grow. As he struggles to grasp the intricacies of his craft, he also needs to learn how to temper his arrogance and repair the fractured relationships of his childhood. News from the east, however, brings the possibility of an even greater threat. Reez and Wicton, suspect that the Master of Anima magic covets greater power and is seeking to learn another’s craft, forbidden since the division. Such an act could destroy the peace and prosperity that has existed for more than 4,000 years. Master and Apprentice is the first book in the Masters of Zelannor trilogy.
