Interesting poster from Keyes and Clancy – they both got elected but I would think that had more to do with the large scale strike at the Ardnacrusha power station than a poster like that.
I also wonder how Keyes equated his advocating of ‘peace’ when speaking on pro-Franco platforms during the Spanish civil war.

I’d entirely agree re the strike rather than the poster being the key thing. Though I love the way a lot of posters during that period were text based. It was literally getting everything in on them!
