Though the data is rather complex
The conclusions are bound to perplex
The young generation
Are an aberration
They’ve more or less stopped having sex.

Actor Bryan Murray supporting collective bargaining rights for freelance workers, outside Leinster House, Kildare Street, Dublin 2 yesterday

In Carrigstown and in Red Rock
The actors are paid by the clock
But if you leave Fair City
For something more gritty
Your wallet is in for a shock.

Presumptive Democratic US presidential nominee Hillary Clinton

The Donald has said she’s a crook
But the Feds have now taken a look
Through all her emails
And Justice’s scales
Are letting her right off the hook.

North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un has gained 38 kilograms since taking power in 2012.

Some comrades have noticed of late
That our leader is putting on weight
We’re forced to conclude
That there’s plenty of food
In that fertile and bountiful state.

The City of London

What happens to Britain’s big banks
If they exit? Well let’s ask the yanks
We won’t get as much
As the mercantile Dutch
We’ll get something, for which we’ll give thanks.

Conservative MP Michael Gove will challenge for the Tory leadership

At last, not a moment too late
A hero steps up to the plate
Against Boris and May,
And a man who cures gay
That country’s one hell of a state.

UK Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn

The comrades have voted to plead
For someone in charge who can lead
JC doesn’t care
He’s still blaming Blair
And insists that he will not concede.

The Dalai Lama and Lady Gaga

We simple folk must be impressed
When a sage from the east meets the west
To discuss the world’s soul
But it is, on the whole,
Something Beijing finds hard to digest.

President Higgins (right) with Boris Johnson in London, 2014

Already they’re starting to spin
Away from an unwanted win
Do they want the UK
To make its own way?
The chances are looking quite thin.

A pig fucking arsehole called Dave
Had a cunning and flawless brain wave
He called for a vote
That hit the wrong note
And dragged the UK to its grave.
