FAREWELL GRANT SCHAPPS! (weekly poem)

FAREWELL GRANT SCHAPPS!

Having been demoted from Party Chairman for “overfirmly denying”

running a business whilst an MP, Shapps has now resigned because he

failed to act in the bullying affair where a young Tory committed suicide.

Farewell Grant Shapps, one of the chaps,         

That everyone could trust;                                   

Provided that he kept the bread,   

And left you with the crust!           

                                                                                             

Described as, “Unreliable”,

The Guardian hath spoke; (1)

So it’s ironic one can’t say,

He’s a pig in a poke.

As one could always be assured,

Indeed be more than sure;

That somewhere lurking in the past,

Were more sacks of manure!

But other chancers still remain,

And law firm Clifford Chance;

Will make enquiries of a sort,

Or least adopt a stance! (2)

The Tory Party more than most,

Attracts the oily kind;

Who after they donate, expect

That they’ll be wined and dined.

The Party is the kind of place,

Where monkey business thrives;

And ‘dog-eat-dog’ the only way,

These ‘Pit-Bulls’ live their lives.  

(1) The Guardian 01/12/15.

(2) Law firm Clifford Chance have often worked for the

Tory Party so some are questioning their ‘independence’.
