The Street Up Again!, 1859
The Street Up Again!, 1859. The defeat of Disraelis Reform Bill in March 1862 brought down Lord Derbys Conservative Government. In this cartoon, parliament is dissolved, and the general election looms. In the meantime, the normal business of government is suspended. John Bull, the Peoples representative, glowers down on Disraeli and Derby (in the crown). Depicted as road-workers, they have dug a large hole in the road which is blocking John Bulls path. Disraeli and Derby were seen therefore as being responsible for the disruption of the smooth passage of government legislation and management of the countrys affairs only one year after the previous election. From Punch, or the London Charivari, April 23, 1859
