Politics: A tapestry of history, power, and change. From Hogarth's contrasting depictions in Gin Lane and Beer Street, we witness the impact on society. The Political Map of Africa reminds us of colonial legacies and struggles for independence. The UVF poster symbolizes political tensions in Northern Ireland while Churchill's V sign represents resilience during World War II. In Jesus Healing The Sick, we see how religion intersects with politics as faith guides acts of compassion. The English suffragette newspaper from 1908 highlights the fight for gender equality amidst a male-dominated political landscape. From Search And Destroy to Wellington Bombers and Lancaster Bombers, military might becomes entangled with political agendas throughout history. Yet amidst it all, The Workers May-Pole design offers hope for a more egalitarian future. As Tower Bridge stands tall beside the Tower of London, these iconic landmarks remind us that politics shapes our cities' landscapes too. Whether through legislation or grassroots movements, politics is an ever-evolving force that influences every aspect of our lives.
