Roy May Poet I do not know?

The Voice of Silent Majority

Tell me why is it opinions
Differ Throughout all mankind?
Why is a general consensus
Never quite clearly defined?

Why do we need to put borders
To mark nationalities land?
If such a thing is important
Why is immigration not banned?

Why is it our politicians
Waffle each night on the news
That Britain is most democratic
Whilst simply ignoring our views?

Why does our Great British nation
Known as a sovereign state
Have it’s laws overruled by Strasbourg
Without any public debate?

Why is it that all our judges
Have opinions that to us seem lax?
Giving less of a sentence to villains
Than for failing to pay the poll tax

Why should we really consider 
The ethnic minority view?
In the land they originally come from
I doubt they’d take notice of you

Why do we put up with do-gooders
Preaching to us of PC?
English is our national language
And England is supposed to be free

Why should we bother with travellers
Camping wherever they like?
If they camped in Buckingham Palace
They’d soon be told "Get on your bike"

What is all this human rights nonsense?
It’s a load of old self righteous crap
Law breakers locked in the slammer
And naughty kids given a slap

What’s so good about toleration?
Why are we so prissy and trite?
We should ignore other’s lands indignation
And "Pull the ladder up Jack I’m all right".
