EDITORS COMMENTS
This satirical postcard from circa 1903 pokes fun at the Radical Party, then the main opposition to the ruling Liberal government led by Prime Minister Campbell-Bannerman and Chancellor Asquith. The image depicts a pint of beer, labeled "Radical Party Promises," overflowing with froth, while the substance of the beer, representing the party's policies and promises, is barely visible. This propaganda piece mocks the Radical Party for their perceived lack of substance and empty promises. The use of a beer pint as a metaphor for political promises was a common motif in political cartoons and postcards of the era, highlighting the public's growing disillusionment with political rhetoric and the desire for tangible results. The Radical Party, despite their radical rhetoric, failed to deliver significant policy changes during their time in opposition, making them an easy target for satire and lampooning by the ruling government and the press.
