Cartoon, Hot Pies! Disraeli (Conservative Prime Minister), Salisbury (Foreign Secretary) and two others sit on low stools like schoolboys. The steaming pies they are eating are labelled with the names of various countries, including Cyprus, Zululand, Afghanistan and Turkey. As a waiter walks in carrying yet another pie, labelled, Burmah, Disraeli tells him they already have as much as they can manage!
