Of all the things I expected to see on Danbooru, a comment comparing anime girls to 1970/80s British politicians definitely comes last.

Can I ask for the reasoning behind some of your comparisons? The Thatcher/Warspite connection I can understand. The Ark/Tebbit one also makes sense to me; from what I’ve seen from the show Spitting Image, they always portrayed him as being this brutish henchman to Thatcher, and Ark is depicted by the fandom as being Warspite’s loyal servant, so I can see the connection between them.
But when it comes to the others, what about them makes you think of those politicans Specifically?

Also, how dare you compare our beloved queen Warspite to that lowlife Johnson.

Just rewatch Spitting Image and try to imagine these girls possessing the personality to those puppets in the show.

Imagine Warspite having ridiculous Latin one-liners from the 2020 Spitting Image

Now I can't help hearing Commons of House in my head.
