More Littlejohn - for the masochists amongst you

Here's the cartoon in Littlejohn's new article, which moans about a chef for the Metropolitan Police complaining about having to serve pork, given that he's a Muslim:


See the turban he secretly had hidden under his chef's hat, and the flowing beard that single him out as a religious weirdo. See the actual picture of the man in question in the article (below the fold):


Oh - there's no turban or big beard after all. And the cartoon leaves out the guy's glasses. Why, it's almost as if the cartoon is based on a crude caricature of imagined shared characteristics rather than anyone who actually exists. Where have we seen that sort of thing before?


I'm sure it'll come to me.
