ODE FOR AN M.P.

An M.P.'s aim is to do good for one and all

But when Parliament meets it's more like a rugby mall

Friend and foe stand toe to toe

Some will say stop, some will say go.

Good policies are pushed towards the posts

Only to be diluted by the opposition hosts

The good 'idea” which is issued into the fray

Changes shape as it is hacked away.

Democracy is a difficult game

It requires courage and is not for the tame

Governing by democracy is clumsy at best

But (it) is whole lot better than any of the world rest.

MP's are like diapers

They should be changed on a regular basis for obvious reasons! The stench from the Labour party's diapers is truly gross and unhealthy!
