Dr William O’Connor, of UCD

A senior lecturer, Bill,
Thinks marriage equality will,
Do something uncanny,
To your luxury granny,
Which sounds rather panicked and shrill.

If you like to sit down and see,
Fine programming on your TV,
Remember the stars,
All deserve nicer cars,
And go pay off your license fee.

Kim Jong-Un on Mount Paektu, North Korea

It’s always a good morning when,
We read of the greatest of men,
Who looks stylish and sleek,
As he strolls to the peak,
Our hero Kim’s done it again.

Catherine McGuinness (right) and community garda Kerrie Sullivan yesterday

We’ll see whinging and quite a few tears,
As the No side face all their worst fears,
They’re bound to object,
That’s it’s just not correct,
For the guards to be nice to the queers.

On Countdown some folks find it hard,
To put something long on their card,
But only the thick,
Would reach for their dick,
In an effort to shock the old guard.

It’s time we sat down to discuss,
What to do if UKIP makes a fuss,
It’s easy to see,
We need a Plan B,
If England wins freedom from us.

Mary McAleese

Ex-president M. McAleese,
Has upset the right-wing thought police,
When she went and said,
All have the right to wed,
And live their lives in bliss and peace.

Dundrum Town Centre during flooding, 2011

Though millions of shoppers have come,
To splash all their cash in Dundrum,
The planners declare,
No more building there,
Or to flooding the town will succumb.

It’s the nineties all over again
As Clinton kicks off her campaign,
She’ll promise and boast
As she tours coast to coast,
To get back on the gravy train.

That ludicrous Frenchman Le Pen,
Says the wrong thing now and then,
He shoots from the hip,
And lets the mask slip,
And angers his daughter again.
