- Description
The cartoon shows Philip Taito Field leaving a court house; behind the door hides a mischievous-looking 'toff' who is about to give him whiskey and a gun. Context - The 'Nick Smith on business' column entitled 'Cheaper justice in a bottle of Scotch'. Nick Smith says 'It makes me pine for that kinder, gentler age when serious issues of political corruption were dealt with quietly and efficiently. Back in the day, according to some Tory toffs, you simply supplied a bottle of Scotch and a gun to the miscreant and off he went into the night'. He is commenting on Philip Taito Field's long drawn out and very expensive trial on corruption charges.
