In the tradition of some of our more talented readers producing new words for well-known songs, EAT commissioned Sir Tim Rice to rework his lyrics for ‘Don’t Cry For Me, Argentina’:

Don’t cry for HIPs, Yvette Cooper 
The truth is they were rubbish 
All through these wild days 
Their mad existence 
Shapps kept his promise
… Along with Pickles  

And as for fortune, and as for fame 
We never invited HIPs in 
Though it seemed to AHIPP they were all we desired  
HIPs were illusions 
They were not the solutions they promised to be 
The answer was here all the time
We loathe them and hope you do too  

Don’t cry for HIPs, Yvette Cooper

Have I said too much? 
There’s nothing more I can think of to say to
you. 
But all you have to do is look at EAT to know 
That every word was true…

Shouldn't this be animated with bouncing BALLS over the words to help us sing along.

By the way, Yvette has confirmed that Ed has only got a very small majority.

I have melted away with Hips and am now retired. Will ony be back when hell freezes over.

Just remember:

We never miss the water till the well runs dry!

Have a nice life.
