If you’re fond of shamrocky tat
You’ll certainly want to know that
You now can be seen
Being fascist and green
By wearing an overpriced hat.

Members and supporters of the Traveller community outside Dáil Eireann last night
There were scenes of great felicity
As TDs sought publicity
Among a cheering crowd
Of travelers rightly proud
We’ve noticed their ethnicity

Passport control at Terminal 1 in Dublin Airport
In figures that came out this week
Immigration is down from its peak
This makes me see red
Was it something we said?
Or is Ireland no longer chic?

Some a-holes committed the sin
Of insulting our friend Úna-Minh
A nation’s no race
And to their disgrace
If it was, then they still wouldn’t win.

Yesterday: Her Kind
The first issue of 2000AD published on February 22, 1977
Have you heard of 2000AD?
A comic that’s just turned 40
It gave us Judge Dredd
Halo Jones, Durham Red
And filled all our childhoods with glee.

Shane Ross, Minister for Transport, Sport and Tourism
Absentee minister Ross
Is making commuters quite cross
He knows they won’t like
The news of a strike
But still he does not give a toss

Actor Stephen Rea (left) and poet Seamus Heaney in 1990
Our high flying poetry star
Used to tell dirty jokes in a bar
And still to this day
His fan, Stephen Rea
Won’t share them, as they went too far.

Provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos has resigned as an editor at Breitbart News
The star of the trendy far right
Gave his fan base a bit of a fright
When his speech on the joys
Of molesting young boys
Went viral at the speed of light.

Donald Trump and golfer Rory McIlroy (both center) in the Trump International, Florida, on Sunday with Former New York Yankee player Paul O’Neill (right) and Clear Sports CEO Garry Singer (left)
A golf champion called McIllroy
Decided that he would enjoy
The chance to be seen
With Trump on the green
Far away from the mere hoi polloi

The mood in FG has turned sour
As two bright young things fight for power
So will this debate
Produce anything great
Or just one long amateur hour?
