1342 - A stitch-up in time

Oh, politics, give me a break, give me
A chance to turn off, tune out, do something
Else for once: you’re always on the TV
In truth, though, you know I’m not complaining
I saw impassioned youth demonstrating
Outside the Lib Dems’ meeting place: reform
Of the first past the post way of voting
That simple, undemocratic system
Representing the old class division
The haves and have-nots, wants and want-nots, the
Selfish and the sharers, and the grasping
And the carers; reform! they cry; it’s them
And us together this time, for they see
We all need the old stitch-up opening
Sat 8 May
