Fable and political satire mix in muddled tale on Unionism

A tangled parable recounts a wolf and lamb with misquoted dialogue on water, trust, and predation, then shifts to a garbled debate on political unionism and competition. The piece ends with disjointed musings on walkers, character types, and a tramway contract reference.
