The Ballad of Belmarsh Gaol

  • 13 July 20194 January 2023

#TommyRobinson
is going to prison –
along with Stephen
Yaxley-Lennon

Stuck in a single bed?
Only room for one
I hope it’s a double –
more space for threesomes

Eight weeks – his stretch –
56 nights defiled?
Perhaps Yaxley-Lennon
will turn Oscar Wilde


#daft instant poem posted to Twitter: it encouraged one alt-right to take up verse
