Why on earth would you want that many gazelles anyway?

In This Bleak Midwinter

Topical...

  [vote for,
against]

In the bleak mid-winter
Tory winds blew cold;
Man with heart of iron,
Boris was enthroned;
Votes had fallen, vote on vote,
Vote on vote,
In the bleak mid-winter
Not so long ago.

Brexit cannot hold Him
Nor EU sustain,
Socialism shall flee away
When He comes to reign:
In the bleak mid-winter
Ten Downing Street sufficed
Next to God Almighty —
Johnson and his wife.

Enough for Him, whom tabloids
Worship night and day,
A fizzing magnum of champagne
And a Corbyn run away;
Enough for Him, whom Angels
Fall down before,
The forty seat majority
Which him adore.

Angels and Archangels
May have gathered there,
Cherubim and seraphim
Thronged the air;
But only Mrs Johnson
In her drunken bliss
Worshipped mophead Boris
With a kiss.

What can I give Him,
Right wing as I am? —
If I were a banker
I would bring him cash;
If I were a businessman
I would do my part, —
Yet what I can I give Him, —
Votes were just the start.

       //Johnson and his wife// - Who?!

       Well, someone's wife (allegedly) ....   

       Like David Lloyd George ...   

       As General Haig said, "I can't abide these politicians. I can't trust them with anything - they all tell their wives. Except for Lloyd George, of course, and he tells somebody else's wife ..."

       In the bleak midwinter used to be my favourite carol.

       //Who?!//   

       Mrs Palmer perchance?   

       Now if Johnson were his christian name he'd be..   

       Hmm.. there's still hope for the future though, maybe we can find Mr Johnson a nice Miss Palmer to marry, & they can hyphenate their names for their children?
