**I’ve just been away for a a week or so, and took a holiday from limericking too, so this and the next one represent an attempt to catch up with a couple of the stories I missed. Normal service will now be resumed.**
A fellow who lives by his art/
Claimed copyright breach on the part/
Of tech tycoon Elon,/
Who won’t do a deal on/
His sketch of a unicorn fart.///
In Norway there’s plenty to please,/
The mountains, the fjords and the trees,/
But buy some protection/
To ward off infection -/
The people may have STDs.///
The FLOTUS set out to repair/
The damage, but opted to wear/
A slogan-daubed jacket,/
On which, on the back it/
Was written “I really don’t care”.///
Addressing his policy fail/
The child snatcher POTUS turned tail/
By signing an order/
So kids at the border/
Can also be slammed into jail.///
His racist tweet wasn’t admired/
And so humble pie was required,/
But Dear BBC,/
What we’d like to see/
Is you telling Sugar: “You’re Fired!”///
The POTUS said let’s disengage/
From human rights groups that enrage/
By tracking abuses,/
While I make excuses/
For locking up kids in a cage.///
A president lacking a heart/
Tears parents and children apart/
In camps on the border,/
Detained on his order,/
The vile, xenophobic old fart.///
Conservative ministers say/
That Brexit will bring the UK/
A shedload of wealth/
To pay for our health,/
Delivered by unicorn sleigh.///

Rees-Mogg, the hardline Brexiteer,/
Who manages funds over here,/
Has launched one in Dublin/
Where things look less troublin’ -/
Perhaps to be named Project Fear.///
A daring raccoon in St Paul/
Who scaled a 300-foot wall/
Arrived at the top,/
And seeing the drop/
Said: “Jeez, that’s a helluva fall!”///
