By
WHIM WHAM
"There is no conflict between me and the Prime Minister we have an excellent working relationship I have made the decision in the interests of the party, and I believe the country, to carry on for a further 12 months.” —Mr G. A. Chapman, president of the National Party. Sir, I’m delighted to hear That George and Rob Enjoy an excellent Relationship On the Job, A ‘working Relationship’ Says George, though I don’t quite see What this Marriage of true Minds has to do With Me. Happy as I am, to know’ That they get along fine How much do I actually care? Is it their own Affair How they agree, this Pair? Is it really Mine? Do I care? Do I mind Who’s the Front or the Hind Legs of this Brute, Or what happens inside It? Only, who’s going to ride It, 'Saddle and Boot? Can the old party Hack Carry Two on its Back, Crupper and Head. Exercising their Brains About who holds the Reins Or the Tail, instead? Does Rob jockey his Mount. With the Votes that We count?— Yes, by the Million! Do you fancy our Horse, On the Grand National Course, With George on the Pillion?
