                                 As the PM's star fades

                                 He keeps losing his aides,

                                 The latest, a certain Nin Pandit.

                                 It's becoming absurd,

                                 For this is the third...

                                 Another who just couldn't stand it?

                                 (Or perhaps it's the way that he planned it?)

Graham Linehan: from Father Ted to ArresTed. My sympathies...

                               Can a PM (who's not talismanic)

                               Be thought of as being in a panic?

                               To enhance his regime

                               He's reshuffled his team

                               (Like chairs on a sinking Titanic?)

                                   'One in, one out'? That's quite the deal,

                                   (Though fairly good, it's not ideal.)

                                   "Give it a chance,"

                                    We've said to France,

                                   "Whether it works, let time reveal"
