    Lyrics:
    (Tony Blair)
    We are young. We are new
    We’re not red, more like blue!
    Keep the Left out of sight,
    (All)
    Cause we’re, more right!
    (John Prescott)
    Lower Tax, no ‘Clause IV’
    (James Gordon Brown?)
    Bribe the rich, screw the poor!
    (Margaret Beckett)
    Differences, very slight!
    (All)
    But we're more right!
    So vote for us you can be sure,
    Things will stay ‘most the same!
    Nothings changed,
    (Margaret Beckett)
    Just the name!
    (John Prescott)
    Do the job. Tow the line.
    Shut me gob, I’ll be fine!
    Grit me teeth, shoofing TIGHT
    While we TALK SHITE!!!
    (Michael Foot, Dennis Healey, James Callaghan)
    We are old. We are dying.
    (All)
    We drink beer, Smoke a pipe
    Shoot the rich, fight and fight
    (Tony Blair?)
    Be unliked
    (Peter Madelson)
    And we love power, you can be sure!
    (John Prescott)
    We’ve sold out to a man
    (Margaret Beckett)
    Our ideals, down the pan!
    (All)
    No ideas. No surprise.
    One thing’s clear: compromise.
    All that’s left is the flag
    And it’s all white(all right?)
    (John Prescott)
    Who are you? Michael Shoofing Barrymore?
    (Tony Blair)
    That was my singing
    (John Prescott)
    Oh very moving!
    (Tony Blair)
    I used to be in a band you know?
    (John Prescott)
    Yeah, and they all left didn’t they?
    (Tony Blair)
    No, I went solo.
    (John Prescott)
    Oh right, yeah. Ah, look out!

    This is actually exactly the same now in 2023 apart from a slight change of roles:
    Blair is now Starmer
    Prescott is now Rayner
    Brown is now Streeting
    Beckett is now Reeves

      I am not a massive Starmer Labour fan but compared to Sunak’s Tories, this current Labour party seems like gold. If they don’t win, I’d be surprised and never trust polling ever again.
