Good evening, folks, and welcome
to this Election Night special.
The country has been heading to the polls
all day to have their say.
Who will be in charge of the Government
once the public have cast their vote?
Who will be running the country?
Will it be the Cats or
will it be the Dogs?
Will the people vote for the Cats,
these self-centred felines,
cool, cold and calculating?
And look out for their claws,
just when you think they’re
playing nice and purring,
they’ll scratch your eyes out.
Or will people vote for the Dogs?
Loyal and true,
brave and honest,
but will they simply
tear the sofa to shreds
and then give us those
sad puppy-dog eyes
when we get mad about it?
Hold on there, folks,
the results are coming in.
The people have decided.
Neither party has the majority.
We have a hung parliament.
The leader of the Dog party,
the new Prime Minister,
a black Labrador,
has announced he’ll be forming a
coalition government
with the Hamsters.

Oh lol, good write T.
A newspaper said vote for Mr Binman - a guy with a bin on his head. Makes sense, yes? Should we give him a try?! lol.
Thanks a lot, Orchi. And Mr Binman couldn't be any worse. Cheers Tom

Completely agree, Neville. Thanks for your comments, mate. Cheers, Tom.
