Northern Ireland’s First Minister Arlene Foster

The DUP leader Arlene,
Has said things that sound a bit mean,
About those who died so,
The Brits might just go,
While wearing a proud shade of green.

A still from Chinese video ‘Our Xi Dada’

One thing that no one needs to see,
Is a pop show about Comrade Xi,
It’s all good clean fun,
But he’s no Kim Jong Un,
Perhaps he should just let it be.

John Halligan was heard to roar,
That he finds long discussions a bore,
If the deal is to stick,
Then they must make it quick,
He’s not sure he can take much more.

William-Shakespeare

In the long years since Shakespeare’s been dead,
There’ve been rumours, in fact some have said,
That such as a small tomb,
Doesn’t have enough room,
That’s no reason to go lose the head.

Adele King and her dog Teddy on TV3’s Midday

Just when you’re starting to think,
That things couldn’t get worse for Twink,
You suddenly see,
Her dog faint on TV,
(He got better, he’s back in the pink).

Broadcaster and magician Paul Daniels, who has died aged 77

A magical fellow called Paul,
For decades delighted us all,
It was charming to see,
Him and Debbie McGee,
But he’s taken his last curtain call.

Ireland footballer Samir Carruthers relieves himself into a glass at Cheltenham

Two footballers thought it was gas,
To watch horses, get drunk, and then pass,
Water while in full view,
Of some people who,
Took pictures of their yellow glass.
