In case you’ve been wondering why
I’m not doing January dry
It can cause you to shake
And spend all night awake
Which is something I can’t abide by.

The Sri Lankan President has reinstated the prohibition of selling liquor to females
In Sri Lanka there are those who think
That women should not purchase drink
If you weaken one clause
In their temperance laws
They’ll kick up one hell of a stink.

The Swiss have declared you must not
Drop a live lobster into a pot
Without stunning its brain
As they fear it feels pain
And the water can get rather hot

Steve Bannon, a walrus-skinned hack
Has stabbed his old boss in the back
His outspoken views
Have upset Breitbart News
So the snowflakes gave Bannon the sack

British Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union David Davis (left) and European Commission member in charge of Brexit negotiations with Britain, Michel Barnier.
Davis can’t quite decide how to go
But he’s stubborn and cautious and so
If we make a plan
Then he’s just the right man
To ball up his fists and yell “No!”

A big story’s breaking this morn
That Westminster’s chock full of porn
For statistics say
That day after day
MPs go to work on the horn

Will cyclists soon see the day
Where they manage to keep cars at bay?
Such a law passed in France
But there’s quite a good chance
Ross will claim that he can’t find a way.

US president Donald Trump (left) and former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon
It’s such an unalloyed delight
To see Donald and Steve have a fight
Has Steve lost his mind
Or will history find
That the claims that he made were all right?

Camperdown Wildlife Centre in Dundee, Scotland has been closed to give its 10 lion-tailed macaques the opportunity to mourn the loss of a troop member.
You may find this hard to believe
But monkeys need time off to grieve
So shutting a zoo
Is the smart thing to do
To give the poor creatures reprieve
