Good Friday in Temple Bar, Dublin 2 last year

The Gardaí are heading your way
With something important to say
You’ll be thrown in the clink
If you turn down a drink
On mandatory alcohol day.

John Concannon, chief of the government’s Strategic Communications Unit (SCU)

The government had a review
Of its comms team, between me and you
It found that the unit
Was totally unfit
For purpose. But that we all knew.

UK Brexit secretary David Davis with sick bucket on the The Andrew Marr Show on BBC 1

Does Davis’s diet include
Some dangerously unwashed sea food
Or did he hit the bar
Before talking to Marr
And end up a little too stewed?

Stormy Daniels on CBS’ 60 Minutes, broadcast last night in the US

 A woman who once had a hump
With the fellow we all know as Trump
was told to beware,
Don’t speak of the affair
Or your daughter may have a bad bump.

Russia’s Amnbassador to Ireland, Yury Anatoliyevich Filatov, inside the grounds of the Embassy of Russian Federation in Rathgar, Dublin 6 earlier this month

Soon Dublin’s nest of Russian spies
Will be in for a nasty surprise
When Leo will say
That they simply can’t stay
Unless they put on a disguise.

Pro-life Independent TDs Mattie McGrath (left) and Danny Healy Rae in the Dáil yesterday

It’s time to sit up and take note
Of those who don’t want you to vote
The prospect of choice
Being given a voice
Was something they dared not promote.

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar and US president Donald Trump in the Oval Office yesterday

So Leo’s in Washington where
He’s spewing a lot of hot air
Now he says he did harm
To a proposed wind farm
Which lots of folk think was unfair
