For those interested here's context on who the people are and why they're relevant.

Back row - Prince William (royal wedding), Anonymous protester, a 'fat cat', Rupert Murdoch (News International Phone Hacking Scandal), Muammar Gaddafi, Twitter bird, Barack Obama?

Front Row - Silvio Berlusconi, Nicolas Sarkozy atop Dominque Strauss Kahn, an English red squirrel flipping the bird and Prime Minister David Cameron who is pickpocketing a hooded youth (representing youth poverty and the August riots), Chelsea footballer John Terry with a sore wrist (was given a light punishment after racism allegations during matches) and Osama Bin Laden.

Forgot Angela Merkel between Sarkozy and Cameron trying to guide his hand like a puppet's (Merkel's been trying to keep the UK on side with fiscal union proposals within the EU - The UK has been rather unfriendly towards the EU recently in this area).

The red squirrel is native to England and meant to represent traditional English values. It's giving a rude gesture as a representation of how British folks have been dealing with the EU lately
