January 1910 general election, Isle of Wight. Cartoon in favour of the Conservative Party candidate Sir Douglas Bernard Hall and the economic policy of tariff reform or protectionism, & against the Liberal Party candidate Sir Godfrey Baring. It shows 'Constable John Bull's warning' as he prevents the Liberals from crossing over to the Isle of Wight. A sign with the message 'Vote for Tariff Reform & Hall will be well' is on the island and the (frozen) Solent has been renamed the Budget & has a 'dangerous' sign stuck in it. The cartoon was published as a postcard by Matthews, Ryde
