History.

The incumbent, well he's still the man
Victory for Sadiq Khan
Poor Susan Hall
Not the belle of the ball
Crushed with her Torian clan.

Sunackered.

A local electoral doom
The Tories, shrouded in gloom
A canary in mine
Re a larger design
Is a Starmer rule growing in womb?

Carnage.

And so, to UCLA
In a state of complete disarray
The camp, it was smashed
The protestors, bashed
Arrested, de-masked, led away.

Rewilding.

Demonstrators facing a test
Many are risking arrest
Strife underway
At UCLA
It's wild once more in the west.

Well done the Met.

A teenager fatally gored
By a madman wielding a sword
The police ran to danger
To face the crazed stranger
Loudly, their bravery roared.

Engulfed?

There's an air of sour introspection
Ahead of the EU election
Will a populist wave
Make us its slave?
Are we bound for a hard-right direction?

Tight.

City and Arsenal win
Forest and Spurs in the bin
Both win away
On an interesting day
The Gunners have a lead one-point thin.

Zelensky cries 'Patriots needed!'
With his plea, the man has succeeded
Lloyd Austin says 'Yes
This need I'll address
The president's request will be heeded.'

On your knees, Trees.

City score four goals away
Brighton, last night, they did slay
The Sky Blue machine
Looking ruthless and mean
Forest should kneel down and pray.

Pay up or pay the price.

Venice, 'tis no longer free
Five euro for you and for me
If you don't pay
Then a fine's on the way
Fifty euro and up, quite the fee.

Onward.

The white blue and red pushes west
Chasiv Yar will soon face the test
The desolate town
Will soon be ground down
And Russia will take o'er the nest.

Transfer? Click.

Taylor Greene v House Speaker Mike
To oust him, will she soon click on like?
With Ukrainian aid
To soon be marked PAID
Is her anger poised for a spike?

Drones.

Tehran has said there's no plan
To hit back and avenge Isfahan
Ben-Gvir posted 'feeble!'
To his hot-headed people
Indeed, what a dangerous man.

Browsing obliviously.

As we browse in the climate change shop
Our incomes are set for the chop
By the year 2050
We'll have to be thrifty
Luxury buying will drop.

Drawing closer.

And so, we turn to Ukraine
How long can Zelensky remain?
Many agree
That he'll soon have to flee
As Russia continues to gain.

Forever war.

And so, to the Knesset's far-right
They seek the perpetual fight
This Ben-Gvir chap
Wants to redraw the map
With the full force of Zionist might.

Amazing.

Leverkusen's position
A feat that incites superstition
An eighteen-month run
'Neath an unbeaten sun
Champions League the next mission.
