The Answer is Blowin’ in the Wind
“Were you and Mr. Corbyn friends, Mr. Starmer?”
Optimistically asked a truth-seeking reporter:
but the North Wind it blew, so he huffed and he puffed,
and the South Wind it blew, as he thought it all through,

Terrorists R Us (1953 Operation Ajax and all that)
Comrade, do please pass me the paint pot,
