Members of Renua, including leader Lucinda Creighton (centre), at the party’s General Election 2016 manifesto launch in Smock Alley Theatre, Dublin yesterday
Lucinda thinks tax on your car,
Mercedes, Rolls, or Jaguar,
Should go, but the fool,
Wants to raise tax on fuel,
And Newry is not very far.

That outrageous fellow Keith Flint,
Took his horse for a New Year’s Day sprint,
And though he’s denied,
That anything died,
Some people just won’t take the hint.

Tommy Maloney’s Irish sausages
On every American fork,
This Christmas there’ll be Irish pork,
And jam, scones and tea,
Will fill paddies with glee,
In Los Angeles and in New York.

It says here in front of my eyes,
That next year most wages will rise,
So go have some fun,
Take a trip to the sun,
On credit is what I’d advise.

The evidence shows that times are,
Increasingly tough at the bar,
So they’re issuing pleas,
For healthier fees,
Which they say have fallen too far.

Roz Purcell with Donald Trump During ‘Miss Universe’, 2011
Some terrible news for the Don,
His political future is gone,
And simply because,
He’s been slammed by Roz,
I can’t see how he can go on.

Outside the Chinese Theatre, Hollywood before the world premiere of Star Wars: The Force Awakens
It’s a red letter day for the geeks,
Who’ve been sleepless and giddy for weeks,
Now at the first sight,
Of the Falcon in flight,
They’re emitting some satisfied squeaks.

If we harness the heat of the sun,
Then the war against carbon is won,
But is this plan sane,
Underneath Ireland’s rain?
I’m not convinced it can be done.

Marine Le Pen, leader of French National Front (FN) political party leader
At the weekend the National Front,
Almost pulled off one hell of a stunt,
But the left helped the right,
Where they led in the fight,
Le Pen fell in the heel of the hunt.
