Political Leadership... Jan 4th,2014 Poem by James Bredin

We need some political leadership to change things around,
How does binding referendums and compulsory votes sound?
And when politicians fool with the books, they should go to jail,
Maybe capital punishment even but certainly no bail.


Why is all this so obvious but so difficult for them to see?
Binding referendums, death with dignity - the way things should be,
But political correctness seems to be what they want to do,
It sometimes seems as though they don’t have a political clue.


Most of our politicians have to join a party and then get in line,
It’s the party agenda - not what the people want - they sign,
And no one is allowed to see that there is a problem here.
Certainly not politicians or they seem to disappear.
