The Lockdown Passport
Glen Le Lievre
Glen Le Lievre lived through Sydney’s 107-day lockdown. Journalist and judge of the 2021 Political Cartoonist of the Year, Casey Briggs, thinks Le Lievre has little to complain about: ‘I’m jealous of all the rooms Glen apparently has in his house … A cupboard under the stairs to hide in when you just want some peace and quiet? Sign me up. A backyard? Ooh la la’.
