It was worth the wait. It wasn't that James didn't want to make a new album. He stays on the road to pay the bills and holing up in a studio for weeks at a time just wasn't going to happen.

Cartoons have long been a fundamental part of The Independents voice since its founding in 1986 and have since commented, satirised and creatively documented notable events over the years.

2020 has certainly been a momentous one; a year of social unrest, an existential international health crisis, political upheaval and frankly overwhelming world events.

We take a look back at the work of Independent cartoonist Brian Adcock and his satirical commentary on a turbulent 2020.

A picture can speak a thousand words and the daily cartoon is a piquant and approachable look at significant events through the year. Adcock says that his cartoons and others bring an immediacy and impact that the written word cannot.
