From Russia with Lav

There was a old fellow from Russia

Who went to see Syria’s Bashar

As mortars & bombs

Rained down upon Homs

Mr Lavrov gladhanded the crusher.

Cameras Don’t Linger on MIA’s Finger

MIA was a rapper from Mitcham

Who US nets thought’d bewitch ’em

But sadly the singer

Gave viewers the finger*

Before TV bosses could switch ’em.

*Look, there are places where finger rhymes with singer – like Liverpool. OK?

Oldest Queen On the Scene

A very old Queen known as Liz

Has been 60 years in the biz

In her time on the throne

She has made it her own

Tho Charlie Boy wishes ’twas his.

QPR star Joey Barton

Says he would turn into a martyr’n

Be jailed over Twitter

Farewell all that glitter

& hello to conditions more spartan.

Snow Flights, Sorry

There once was an airport, Heathrow

Where 1 or 2 inches of snow

Meant flight cancellation

& much aggravation

For people with places to go.

Lack of Resolution

There is an old man in Damascus

Allegedly guilty of massacres

The UNSC

Tried and failed to agree

What did you do? Our children will ask us.

Hack Attack

The Yard & the Feds made a pact

So Anonymous types could be tracked

To amusement of all

Their conference call

Was not unsurprisingly hacked.
