Ingenious Mr. Toad

The Government went Poop-poop-poop,
As it raced along the road.
Who was it steered it over the cliff?

I don't know why it has taken me so long to spot the resemblance.

Wondering whether this was old news, and everyone knew it except me, I did a quick search and discovered Victoria Coren Mitchell, making an entirely different point, but I think she's seen the likeness:

"Piffle-paffle, Toady is a great patriot!," scoffs Boris Johnson. "I met him at a motor show where he clearly indicated to me that he hopes Britain grabs back the power to self-determine. You simply can't be giving in, he told me, to these weasels."

That's well done and I'm so sorry.

Thank you, on both counts!
