A large poster depicting a caricature of Edward Heath, British Prime Minister from 1970 to 1974. In the cartoon Heath's mouth is wide open in a grin showing teeth that read "HEATH LAUGHS" and underneath "AT JOBLESS". His mouth is lined with red from his lips. This poster is titled 'House of Commons 2/11/71" and was produced by the Labour Party after Heath's comments on unemployment sparked debate in a Commons debate on the 2nd November 1971.
