1364 - Yellow underbelly

The Coalition’s already tainted
With sleaze. David Laws, Chief Secretary
To the Treasury, found he had painted
Himself into a corner, not chiefly
Because of his hidden sexuality -
The public wouldn’t hold this against him -
But because he had claimed over forty
Thousand in rent paid to his partner. Slim
Chance of getting away with that within
The current strict climate. Having scented
His own blood, he jumped before he could be
Pushed, saving their faces. So soon back in -
The old politics - how disappointed
Clegg’s supporters with their naivety?
Yellow is the colour of David Laws' and Nick Clegg's political party, the Liberal Democrats, who are in a coalition government with the Conservative Party.
