The Winter of Our DisconTENT
Jess Harwood
The cost-of-living crisis drove many Australian political cartoonists to respond. In this cartoon, artist and campaigner Jess Harwood empathises with some everyday difficulties and addresses the irony that in a relatively hot country like Australia homes are freezing in winter because they are so badly insulated. Neither do they perform well in extreme heat.
