  • Beneath a caption that reads ‘Captain America First’, Donald Trump as the super hero Captain America holds up his 'tariffs shield' against a jet of flame. Behind him is a wrecked city scape with crashed cars and street furniture in disarray. Trump’s long red tie is being grasped by a muscular suited arm labelled ‘Bond Market’, which is pulling it tight. In the foreground is a diminutive Keir Starmer as a Minion character. Trump is saying “My carefully thought out plan is working brilliantly…bring it on, Chynnah!” Starmer is saying '…More great news! The UK is getting a new theme park!'
