THE DAILY MAIL
Inspired by that wonderfully arousing song "The Green Berets".
In the 30’s they’d support
The Fascists whom we later fought;
Shamelessly the flames they fanned
“Give the blackshirts a helping hand”;
So whether sunshine or in rain
In the gutter they remain:
Still today they rant and rail
No change there then for The Daily Mail>
Unrestrained forever free
To peddle bile and bigotry:
Not for headlines do they lack
“Stop the Boats” and “Send Them Back;
Journalists must pass the test
To sort the good out from the rest:
Some will pass but those who fail
Are doomed to work for The Daily Mail.
Here they stand now those who’ve brought
Their cases to the highest court:
Doreen Lawrence, Elton John
Their privacy shot and gone:
And the Duke of Sussex too
At the head of this queue:
Super sleuths were on the trail
Paid for by The Daily Mail.
Their defence thin and absurd
Is that the case should not be heard:
They’ve crossed the line and what is more
It’s not bad form – they broke the law:
They say what goes round comes around
I’d like to see the rag shut down:
Owners of The Daily Mail
Should not be fined, but go to jail.

Thanks, John. It was alright for our outside bog.
