This is an illustration for the article titled- Are Labour any better? authored by Preeti Dhillon, published in Burnt Roti magazine.
Labour is a political party in the UK that assumably sits in the centre-left of the political spectrum. This illustration focusses on the promise of more police officers for safety, without addressing systemic racism, police accountability, or the disproportionate impact on Black people, who are seven times more likely to die from police restraint than white people, as stated in the article.
