In my last post of the year you'll find two sonnets, one written by me and the other by ChatGPT. Both have Nigel Farage as their subject, and one is written in the style of Shakespeare and the other Larkin. But will you be able to figure which is mine and which is ChatGPT? š

I feel angry about the all hostile narratives propagated against immigrants. It's socially hard for an ethnic minority woman to express anger but nevertheless I feel I must. Anger is the appropriate emotion here with such gross unfairness & public harm. Let's give eachother permission to express it.

The lack of interest from the media in Fromage's murky finances and spivvy evasions (and before that in Boris Johnson's ever-iffy financial arrangements) contrasts rather strongly with their beady-eyed obsession with the finances of Labour politicians - especially female ones like Rayner and Reeves.
