The above image is from Left Futures article entitled 'Labour should go for Osborne’s jugular'. It's a piece written by Michael Meacher who I assume will be disowning the image used...
People have complained to Left Future about the image but it's still there as is this comment from long time figure on the Labour left, Jon Lansman at 6:53 pm;
'...I didn’t imagine that the illustration would alone “create an atmosphere of violent hyperbole” or I wouldn’t have used it but I will take account of your views in future...'When you remember the faux shock from many on the left at the 'target' imagery used in some of Sarah Palin's literature and how that was apparently to blame for the shooting of Gabrielle Gifford, you do wonder how they can even contemplate using even worse imagery themselves. Actually hypocrisy is the easy explanation.

Interesting that the left should choose the method of choice of their close ideological allies to deal with people they consider slightly less than human.
