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.

We didn't start the Parly
Costs were always rising
Because of bad advising
We didn't start the Parly
No they didn't cost it
So we nearly lost it

The builders have finished,
Well sort of.
We’ve aw moved in,
More or less.
They’ve cleaned up the mess,
Well most o’ it.
Noo everyone’s happy,
Happy-ish.
It was cheap at £440 million
It…..
Ach forget it.
