Cameron hints that the treaty/Negotiations will be meaty/But what’s he defending?/The message he’s sending/Is “Sarkozy, ‘ands orf ze ceety!” http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-16063911

Fox Hole

Cut the telephone, stop all the clocks/The Cabinet’s lost Liam Fox/But as Tories mourn/One’ll be less forlorn/For whom opportunity knocks. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-15300751 (With apologies to W.H. Auden)
