The Pingdom years were most corrupt, .
The ending in ninety two abrupt, .
The country then enjoyed those cleaner times, .
Accountability and less government crimes. .
But all good things must reach their end; .
A different PM the voting trend. .
Will this one manage to survive the scandal? .
Or widespread corruption too much to handle. .
The electorate will determine soon, .
The piper’s colour that calls the tune. .
Sigh.

Hi unrealthinker; this matter is not yet before the courts, as such no media house can be charged with anything short of libel; also you cannot libel someone who has shuffled off this mortal plain. You're welcome. Follow me more more useful info.....sigh....
