St. George’s Day

The patron saint of roundabouts
Zip-tied flags and far-right louts
The patron saint of Stop The Boats
And disaffected Brexit votes

The patron saint of LBC
GB News and Talk TV
The saint of plain hostility
To anyone who ain’t like me

The patron saint of wooden crosses
Crumbling and rotten
The patron saint of you can’t have it
Races to the bottom

The patron saint of two world wars
And one lousy world cup
Where are you now our dear St George
How badly did you fuck it up?
