    Ode To Theresa May



    Theresa May ... she's had her day
    And now, it's time to get her
    Out of power - within the hour
    And look for someone better.


    So come on Dave ... it's time you gave
    The country someone better
    For all our sake, when will you take
    Her resignation letter?


    Damien Green - as we have seen
    Is just about as dim
    From what he earns - time someone learns
    We're better rid of him!


    Theresa May, she passed away
    With no-one there to mourn her
    Now we can say, "hip hip-hooray!"
    And every foreigner.

    edited to remove - that poem, although aimed at possibly the forums least liked politician, might just result in my banning hehe

    What do you mean "edited"? Edited what? Why? Here's me thinking - in the light of the incumbent Home Secretary's unpopularity among the vast majority of the forum membership - my 'little' ditty might ... just might ... earn me 'a little' more kudos and/or "brownie points" than almost ANY of the 300-odd articles I've contributed up till now. Especially in view of the thought put into it beforehand.

    Evidently, I was sadly mistaken. Needless to say, I'm disappointed at the general lack of response to what I thought, in the current circumstances, was (even though I say so myself!) fair comment - conveyed in a humorous style.

    Nonetheless, my thanks to the few who bothered to at all.

    Excellent Arthur . Dave probably will not listen though as he probably thinks she's doing a great job.

    No, you have me wrong. I wrote one myself, but then decided I had better remove it, as it was pretty abusive towards her. Yours is great, but mine was just a nasty personal attack.

    Then again, she deserves it

    ... so sorry for my misinterpretation of your post, Iani; I guess I'd just been feeling totally ed~off at the way decent British people like yourself - and many others besides - are being treated by the Establishment. Although it's more than 3 years since I brought MY wife to the UK, I'm still ultra~sensitive towards the anguish involved for those of you negotiating the many hurdles of the visa process.

    I loved the poem, very well done on all the thought and effort put into it...certainly lifted my spirits.

    Theresa May but more likely she wont, if your talking about being fair

    Theresa could and indeed she should, if your talking about arresting Blair

    Theresa might, if you put up a fight .. let you love someone from outside of the EU

    but shes scared of the euros so instructs all her bureaus to close all its doors to the rest

    too, Alan for your appreciation. Perhaps I'm a bit guilty of being a trifle over-sensitive about the lack of response to some of my posts. But it's worth the extra effort involved in trying to encapsulate the prevailing mood of the times.
