Thirty Left-wing MPs have written to Ofcom to press it to censor X under the Online Safety Act. The evidence of 'hate' on the platform is threadbare, but it's obvious why they want to clip its wings, says Laurie Wastell.

Silly anarchist limericks

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Sunday April 28, 2002 14:11author by Dan Brettauthor email dan at danielbrett dot co dot uk Report this post to the editors

Does anyone want to cheer up and write some terrible political limericks? I was bored this morning and thought I'd rattle some out. Give us your opinions and some more limerics. This could be the start of a something big - or maybe just a little giggle.

There was a bloke from the SWP
Said: "I’m more superior than thee
You’re all inferior
While I am superior.”
Then he tripped and fell on his knee.

There was a guy from the Sex Pistols
Who owned some New Age crystals
He held one with his thumb
Stuck one up his bum
In order to learn how to whistle.

A politician from Fianna Fáil
Got blown over in a terrible gale,
He hurt his left buttock
And bruised his fat stomach
And then proceeded to wail.

A gun-man from the IRA
Couldn't afford a place to stay
He knocked on Blair's door
Said: "Don't want to be a bore
But I'll shag you if you are gay."

The President of the USA said
“This army must be led.”
He said: “Follow me, men,
We will beat them again
Just as soon as I get out of me head.”

There was a white man from Brixton
Who prayed the BNP would win
Now he’s cleaning pavements
For Birmingham Asians
Boy, have they got it in for him!

A highly trained plane-spotting spy
Was caught - so he started to cry
The Greeks said: “You are a failure
From here to Kalamata.”
He said: “Yes, but I try and I try.”

The folks in Buckingham Palace
Bear nobody harm or malice
They just steal from you and me
And don’t give a pee
For the rest of the human race.

Ali G is a racial stereotype
Riding high on media hype
One day we’ll all see
That he’s no longer funny
Then he’ll just have to learn to type.

What pretty limerricks

Now fuck off this is a NEWS wire not a forum for substandard poetry

If you're bored, do whatever but don't spam up indymedia with this dull unfunny shite.

I just thought it would be a good crack, since lefties are notorious for being miserable bastards. OK, I'll piss off - never mind.

I get the fucking message, how many more times? It's just stupid that more people have responded to complain about this than have responded to other articles. Don't worry, I've undergone extreme self-flagellation in order to beat this terrible sin out of me. Can't you see the scars? Now, don't keep on or I might break out into mournful poetry, which is far worse than my limericks. You've been warned.
