E.U.’s Clerihews
Here’s what a clerihew is:
A poem four lines long. The first and second lines rhyme with each other, and the third and fourth lines rhyme with each other. The first line names a person, and the second line ends with something that rhymes with the name of the person. A clerihew should be funny.
Teresa May
to Brexit said nay
but now she can’t wait
to negotiate.
*
Merkel and Junkers
believe we are plonkers
not to remain
on the gravy train.
*
In Nicola Sturgeon
new ideas burgeon:
she wants to call
a new E.U. poll.
*
Unlike Jacob Rees-Mogg
we are all in a fog.
He does firmly believe
that we must leave.

Although there is a lot of uncertainty about Brexit, the only certainty is that there will be a civil war between the countries comprising the U.K. all trying to muscle in the negotiations all with their own agenda.
Gloves off, I say; I love a good fight but, being Italian, I shall only be an observer.
