Astronomers discover '10th planet' in solar system, UB313 
Some lucky stargazers have seen,
The planet UB-Three-Thirteen:
They're over the moon,
Although I presume
Astrologers aren't quite as keen!

Armed police operation captures terror suspects 
The raids in West London and Rome
Don't mean terror's been overthrown,
For though it's farewell
To one inept cell,
There may well be others unknown.

Tornado blasts Birmingham 
The folks in the Midlands are glum
Because a tornado's hit Brum,
Yet why feel chagrined
When no savage wind
Could make the place more of a slum.

IRA declares end to armed struggle 
The IRA's told the news feeds
They're ending all violent misdeeds
But as for their bomb kit,
They're not gonna junk it...
They've found some keen buyers in Leeds.

Dignitaries flock to Sir Edward Heath's funeral 
Mourners are laying a wreath
For former PM Edward Heath;
When he was on top
He wasn't much cop
And now he's six feet underneath.

Brazilians decry Met Police 'execution' of innocent man 
A backpack-strapped chap from Brazil
Never wished London ill will;
He just chose to run
From a guy with a gun...
The copper, though, chose 'shoot to kill'.

Second London attack fails after bombs misfire 
Fanatical bombers will lose
No matter how rabid their views:
They claim Allah's will
Tells 'em 'scare, maim and kill'...
Yet not how to wire a fuse.

London bombers were 'home-grown' fundamentalists 
The bombers weren't from overseas;
It turns out that most came from Leeds,
But that doesn't mean
Their like are obscene...
So don't tar all Yorkshiremen, please.

London rocked by tube and bus explosions 
London has suffered a wrench:
Tube terror's left a foul stench -
But what dread outsider
Attacked us? Al Qa'eda?
Maybe... or maybe the French.

London beats Paris in Olympic race 
London has captured the Games;
Paris's hopes are in flames:
That'll teach Jacques
To claim our food 's cack
And call us a bunch of bad names!

French leader pours scorn on British cuisine 
Chirac says fine British fayre
Ain't fit for France, because there
It's course after course
Of snails, offal, horse,
Songbirds and sheep's brains - all rare.

Multimillionaire superstars line up for Live 8 
Madge, Elton John and Bill Gates
Call on all Western-world states
To end third-world debt,
Though surely they'd get
Enough in a whip with their mates.
