    Did things that made sense???? Not to any normal person with an ounce of compassion. Regarding the mining industry, I honestly don't know if coal was a viable option or not, but what she did was inhumane. So determined to defeat Scargill, she used the police force as a private army and happily consigned whole communities of hard working people to the scrapheap. If the mines had to close it should have been gradual and phased, with regeneration of new industry in those areas implemented. Because they were unlikely to vote for her, she just happily left them to rot - well done Maggie, you've just created the Jeremy Kyle generation.

    A truly evil bitch, I hate her with a passion.

    I hate Torys with a passion. When the elite 5% of the country sanction a party, it can't be good for the common man.

    However, I'm UKIP at the moment, purely from the fact they give me personnally some answers to my hates.
    The EU/Immigration/Scum haven.

    Shut up shop, get our jobs/health service/benefit/housing/crime/services/justice system, back in our own hands and under control.
    Politicians don't want this, because they would lose their gravy train jobs. That's why you won't get a referendum. So until a main party has the bollox to deal with it and let us decide, it's UKIP.

    You hate the Tories, yet support the To

    Just to avoid confusion, that 42% refers to those who voted. Take the whole electorate, and only 32% of them voted for Thatcher. In other words, over two thirds decided not to vote for her.

    So what are you talking about with your 60% reference?

    re: politically correct?

    Where do you get media blinded from, how about an adult ex troop who liked her. and to make a bold statement such as you can disprove everything either makes you arrogant or extremely intelligent. Please don't assume things.

    And by the way I was brought up in the biggest anti Maggie environment possible ( a South Yorkshire mining village ) so media or outside influence has no bearing on my opinion.[/quote]

    Media blinded is what Thatcher projected when pulling the wool over peoples eyes.
    Waving the Union flag, does not make someone a national hero.
    Ex trooper? Then respects. However, had I been a trooper under her, sent to that bog land to eject an invader and knew that her government could have avoided it, I'd have been pissed off.
    She used it to get re elected after she was about to be booted out of office as one of the worst leaders this country had ever seen.

    As EP says, I have more compassion in my left testicle than that woman had.
    Want to reminisce with her reign?

    re: politically correct?

    Could we have a poll of who supports whom

    Conservative : Romanis, 45red

    UKIP: TrickyTreeReds

    Abstain: Dam


    What about you EP? Lib/Dem perhaps?
    Es***lad is probably Labour, he gets as confused as 'Red Ed Miliband'.

    NB: If Boris Johnson ever becomes PM, I'm switching allegiances.

    Just 1 thing about Maggie, I never liked her, I preferred Heseltine to her. She had her plus points for sure, but wasn't my cup of tea - but I didn't like Foot or Kinnock that much either. I thought John Smith would have made a great PM. Blair was ok for a while until he suddenly fell in love with the Americans. The decision to send troops to Iraq maybe even Afghanistan was a huge mistake. Maybe we should learn a thing or two from the Germans, just look at how well respected Merkel is and Germany ain't doing too shabbily either.

    Heseltine?
    You're stoned aren't you?
    Look up the Westland affair. Tory back stabbing scandal event. Resignation

    Oh yes, I'm very well aware of Westland. But the culprit was Leon Brittan not him.

    As I said I didn't like Maggie, and Heseltine was the only 1 at the time who had the balls to stand up to her, hence my support of him.
