Three cheers for Washington State,
Whose laws have grown great on this date,
Now God-fearin’ folk,
Can enjoy a nice toke,
What a happy end to this debate.

Austéritif
at
That’s utterly disNOMNOMNOM
Free Staters really can’t brag,
After letting our finances sag,
But our staunch northern chums,
Are back beating their drums,
And rioting over a flag.

By Eoin Thing, parliamentary correspondent:
2.30 Minister Noonan is on his feet
2.34 Interesting point about the GDP ratio in real terms.
2.37 Something about pensions.
2.38 Lol
2.47 That’s not even English.
2.48 He’s been talking to the guys at Goldman.
2.49 7%!
2.50 7%?
2.51 7% so.
2.49 The markets won’t like that.
2.53 Or that
2.54 That’s going hurt the coping classes. The neurotic remain untouched (Again!)
3.00 What about the SMEs???
3.05 Ah
3.11 Howlin on his feet.
3.12 No, really.
3.15 One-stop shop for inferstructural reform? Risky but I like it.
3.20 Take that, Keynes!
3.25 Emphasis very much on growth and jobs and money.
3.33 Howlin promising further measures.
3.34 And a range of other expenditure targets to be met.
More to follow
All kinds of benefits reduced,
And property tax gets a boost,
But still no suspensions,
Of ministers’ pensions,
As the vultures all come home to roost.

Some good news for the old fourth estate,
To distract them from Leveson’s fate,
Let the punters consume,
All the news from the womb,
As they wait for young Kate to dilate.

Unless you think you can do better?
Yes, it’s a Tuesday Interminable Royal Maternity ‘Rick Off.
Lines close at 4.45pm. 5.30pm
Winning Limerick revealed at 5.15pm.
UPDATE: The ‘rick judged best is:
There was a young woman called Kate
She thought it was something she ate
that made her feel ill
but no, it was Will
Who’d implanted a new head of state
Lainey
In the castle they have a convention,
Which I feel is well worth a mention,
They’ll be fixing our laws,
Or adding new flaws,
I do hope they’re paying attention.
