Greek PM Alex Tsipras and Jeane-Claude Juncker, President of The European Commission
The bigwigs in Brussels now feel,
They’ve worked out the perfect Greek deal,
They stayed up all night,
To get it all right,
Showing passion, commitment and zeal.

Omar Sharif at the Dublin Arabic film festival in the Lighthouse Cinema last year
Let’s keep this sad breaking news brief,
And leave time to wallow in grief,
So prop up a bar,
For we’ve lost a great star,
And drink one for Omar Sharif.

More words from the great Harper Lee,
They reckon this book,
Will catch you with it’s hook,

And let people look,
At flesh on Facebook,
Just Photoshop in a male nip.

The Abortion Rights Campaign writes:
We’re looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help us this summer. All volunteers must be 18 years old or over. The work involves working at the bars at some of the biggest gigs and festivals this summery.
When your shift finishes up you get to enjoy the music, have a free pint or two and pat yourself on the back for making a genuine contribution to improving the lives of women in Ireland…

Farewell to our old comrade Pat,
A warrior who confirmed that,
We all love a fighter,
And then hate the blighter,
Who wears an establishment hat.

Let’s have singing and dancing and mirth,
Now we know what democracy’s worth,
The tables will turn,
And the bondholders burn,
And the Greeks will inherit the earth.

George Ferguson saw nothing wrong,
With planting the folk from Hong Kong,
By the shores of Lough Foyle,
But he made some blood boil,
And the answer he got was quite strong.

Donald Trump thinks that he knows the score,
But those decent chaps who all shout “fore!”,
Say when he shoots his mouth,
About folks from down south,
The best thing to do is ignore.
