NIGEL FARAGE
(A re-post from a few years ago, but seeing as the great man is back I thought it worthwhile to revisit. AfficiaNandos may recognise my debt to George Formby's "Fanlight Fanny").
You can tell he
Loves the telly
For his chance to smarm
He would give an arm
And a leg;
Aimed to prove he
Was a smoothie
On our TV set
As he got the better
Of Nick Clegg;
Charming and urbane in his soft sell,
Weaving with his words his subtle spell
(What’s that smell?)
Nutty as a cake with fruit
But can’t wait to put in the boot
Nigel Farage, Black Shirt in a suit.
Wants a country that is white
Champion of the Barmy Right
Nigel Farage, Black Shirt in a suit.
Says they’re all sat on the dole
The Black, the Paki and the Pole
Nigel Farage, Black Shirt in a suit.
Or they’re taking English jobs
Cos they’ll work for thirty bob
Nigel Farage, Black Shirt in a suit.
Don’t speak English on the train
They’re the reason in the main
That the NHS is under strain
The slimy scrote
He claims your vote
Just like the National Front
Like Powell
He’s foul
Di-di-di-di-di-di-di
(couldn’t think of a rhyme)
Says it’s time that we were through
With Merkel and Hollande’s EU
Nigel Farage, Black Shirt in a suit.
Says it’s time that we should leave
Wants a Britain where he’s Chief
Nigel Farage, Black Shirt in a suit.
He’ll be “Chief” but understand
Just in Bongo Bongo Land
Nigel Farage, Black Shirt in a suit.

Thanks, Steve.
I can’t remember why I made the link between NF and Fanlight Fanny. (It was 2014, I think). Though I’ve always thought it is a cracking tune.
Although I remain a convinced Remainer, you might be aware that I snipe in any direction, Left, Right, Leave, Remain. I have to say that this seems to gall my chums on the Left disproportionately who seem to feel that somehow their icons should be immune.
“Respect” as da yoof, say.
