In the Palace of Westminster they do reside,
The Elected Ones sit Side-by-Side.
There's Scandals here, Backstabbings there,
And for the good of the People they Solumnly Swear.
So under the Clock it's appropriate then-
As their wear more faces than Old Big Ben.

Poetic recognition of the political. Well written
Thank you. Appreciate you reading.
You are most welcome Kevin
Epigram away, Kevin - That was great. Said more about the state of politics than a lengthy column rich critique in yer local rag.
Faved for brevity and penetration; well and truly skewered.
With Elections this Past week it's been the only News. Thanks for your Comments and Reading.
PS. And for the fave Dave. (There's a Rhyme there somewhere) And there as well.
Rhymes have kept me head above water,
Now just a habit, I feel I orter.
