Siren
When the Siren Sounds
Return to your overcrowded homes
Do not question your orders
Unless you have an off-shore bank account
Unless you have a second or third home
Unless you own a Caribbean island
Do not question your orders
Do not misinterpret your instructions
Do not refer to last week's instructions
Do not keep copies of previous instructions
Do not question your orders
Do not ask for clarification
Do not ask for edification
Do not ask for education
Do not question your orders
Do not query the numbers
Do not look at the directors' bonuses
Do not probe the shareholders' dividends
Do not question your orders
Do not ask where your government is
Do not ask where the millionaires are
Do not ask where the promises went
Do not question your orders
Do not ask for whom the siren sounds, it sounds for thee
Do not question your orders
Unless you have an off-shore bank account
Unless you have a second or third home
Unless you own a Caribbean island
Do not question your orders
Do not misinterpret your instructions
Do not refer to last week's instructions
Do not keep copies of previous instructions
Do not question your orders
Do not ask for clarification
Do not ask for edification
Do not ask for education
Do not question your orders
Do not query the numbers
Do not look at the directors' bonuses
Do not probe the shareholders' dividends
Do not question your orders
Do not ask where your government is
Do not ask where the millionaires are
Do not ask where the promises went
Do not question your orders
Do not ask for whom the siren sounds, it sounds for thee

Getting into the Rhythm
The Thursday 'Clap for Carers' in this time of the coronavirus is, unsurprisingly, controverial. While no-one would deny our collective gratitude to those in the health and care services and other key workers, it is being used by right-wing politicians and much of the media as a distraction. What the former in particular want to avoid is any discussion of how the UK health service has been cut over the last ten years, nor how every other aspect of the welfare state has been ideologically hollowed out.
This has been exemplified by the atrocious response of the UK Government in the areas of testing, contact tracing, and protective equipment for clinical staff, carers and other front-line workers (PPE).
So it has been suggested, as a minor act of defiance, that on Thursday we should all clap out the Morse code for P-P-E (dit-dah-dah-di dit-dah-dah-di dit).
So I mentioned this to Oldest, and he's produced this sketch - and he insists it be marked as just a sketch:
