FLIGHT

Fancy a flight that sees your hair

Stand on end - try Ryanair!

You take a chance on getting where

You bought a ticket to get there.

Wherever that place "there" might be

You may get an extra flight for free

To some dire place you did not choose -

Fancy a stop at benighted Belarus?

Where they drag opponents from a plane

In defiance of diplomacy and don't refrain

From waving two fingers at the rest of us

Gleefully taking advantage of the best of us!

It's my bet the Irish are hopping mad

At the way that they've been had!

The Poles are not to be trifled with!! As their fighter pilots serving
with the RAF demonstrated to their warmongering neighbours.
Plus - thanks one and all for the "likes".

I think it is the Poles who are most aggrieved, MC. Apparently, a plane takes on the “nationality” of the country in which it is registered. In this case it is Poland. The Belorussians, it seems, have driven a horse and cart through diplomatic convention by hijacking a Polish aircraft.

Dawn and Jennifer - thank you.
Has anything summed up the arrogance of the dictatorial mindset
so completely as this public display of deceit?!.

Loved this one! A very angry Irishman is someone to reckon with!
At least they haven't poisoned the poor man, yet.

Well said. What a shame - and you did a wonderful job capturing it
