OH what a race for second place, the Fairford North election race

Two candidates neck and neck, same policies but what the heck.

THAT Lib Dem bloke could do with a shave, in Chris Roberts town? He must be brave

And a Green Party girl with a radiant smile, the Greens ought to win by a country mile.

BUT the Lib Dems have a cunning plan, day after day the telephones they man

Ringing us up both day and night, it’s so darn annoying it just can’t be right

THE activists come from near and far, relying on Sat Nav by posh motor car

Banging on doors at some ungodly hour, when you’re watching TV or having a shower

IN sandals and parkas in spite of the rain, they really annoy me, they’re nowt but a pain

A well-meaning, bumbling, shambling crew, pensioners and idlers with nowt else to do

THERE you go Lynden, is twenty quid OK mate?

AL SEPERT

Fairford
