ASYLUM SEEKERS | Write Out Loud

For those who seek asylum the process has been slow;

It seems there’s quite a backlog in deciding “Stay” or “Go”.

Paperwork on paperwork – the bane of these oppressed

And then the dreaded follow-up – the Citizenship test.

“Who wrote The Pilgrim’s Progress? Who is Desperate Dan?

What is Man United? You’ll need to be a fan”

 

But I could speed the process with a foolproof plan that works

By sifting out Somalis, Albanians and Turks.

For there’s a methodology an Englishman would pass,

Whilst sneaky Johnny Foreigner is doomed to fail, alas!

 

The test involves a slice of toast on which would thickly lay

And those that relished Marmite would be allowed to stay.

But those who made a grimace or spat it out as cack

Would never get to Glyndebourne and were destined to go back.
