The McConnell Log

Some smart Alex once said that Scotland will only be free when the last minister of the Kirk is strangled with the last copy of The Sunday Post. Now, thanks to Jack Topaz McConnell, that has all changed. Now they say that Scotland will only be free when the First Minister is strangled. Wee Jack, however, is much more than mere politician. Unknown to many of his countrymen, he is also poet and tragedian. For better and for verse. Much, much verse. Here, in a style owing much to lauded predecessors such as Burns, McGonagall and Dalglish, is the secret poetry of Jack Topaz McConnell.

Unreliable 
If you cannae rely on Reliance
Whit can ye do
Cons will be on the skite
And I’ll be on the broo

Oh Reliance they are wonderful
Reliance they are swell
They transport the prisoners
And let them go as well
And when a killer’s on the run
You can always tell
When some bugger’s been freed by Reliance
