To the editor

I made a mistake. We were in the Chinese ordering takeaway when I opened the paper on the counter without thinking and got a blast of the Daily Mail. It made me sad.  Anyway.


A Letter to the Editor of The Daily Mail.

I write this under extreme duress,
Since I heard about schools handing out free durex
Between that
And single mothers
I must confess
I'm getting rather stressed
My Father didn't fight in the war for this.

On the corner I see kids with hooded heads
We really need some sort of national service.
That's my taxes
funding scroungers
Council housers
And NHS beds
And my Father didn't fight in the war for this.

Those Muslims aren't quite human we should know who they are
Make them wear a crescent
or maybe wear a star
And I really
am not racist
All I want to say is:
My Father didn't fight in the war for this.
