Transparency

Smart room, eh? Cost two million quid,
so we can tell you what we did.
We fast-tracked deals for PPE,
a national emergency.
Less chance to check, humungous spends
meant massive profits for our friends.
A Brexiter’s severely shamed
so we spread rumours he’s been framed.
Trial by jury earns respect –
it’s just the verdict we reject.
No Covid parties. We’re not fools.
But those there were kept to the rules.
Today, the truth is what we say.
We don’t remember yesterday.
