shes a gonner

[mutley racers]

am too young to really know anything about maggie and what she achieved. My next day neighbour was 80yrs old and she only listened to the news. And she used to have it so loud we could hear it in our house. Bt, as soon as maggie came on she would start screaming at the tv calling her an old cat. She hated her. Never did find ot why

Kangaroo politics. Easy to hate but ignorant of the benefits she bought to the country. IMHO of course.

I grew up in the 70's and 80's and at the time I absolutely despised the woman. I still despise her policies. I despise the conservative party, but by the same token I can't trust the labour party to run the country without hashing it up.

However, as has been said, there was no doubting her. If she said she was going to do something then she'd do it.

But I will never forgive her for selling off the family silver. imho it's a direct result of her policies that we're in the mess we are now.

If only we had a scottish pm with enough foresight to hang on to our gold reserves.

WAIT A MINUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wish her a peaceful rest.
I didn't agree with all her policies but she showed the Trotskyist union leaders that they didn't run the country for their own benefit.

RIP Mrs Thatcher x

She would have had the north crawling round in the gutter giving half the chance. Typical Tory scum. Rob from the poor and give to the rich. She ruined the industry in this country and left us more or less reliant on the banking industry. She covered up the deaths of 96 people and left families suffering for years over the lies told about them.
She put people in prison for trying to protect there jobs. She introduced the poll tax and again put people in prison for defying this!

Bye bye good riddance!

An economy built on unions and coal equals???

A better one than one built on greedy banks

She set the wheels in motion so to speak. If she hadn't had ruined industry the banks wouldn't have the power they have today, they know there holding this country up and act accordingly

 

[Guest123]

Move this Lee. It's better to have a debate like this in the Arms .Guaranteed to get too heated for public forum.

Zeb, do you remember what Britain was like in the 1970s, before Mrs Thatcher came into power?

No I don't, I was born in 1980

 

[stani]

You don't remember the 'winter of discontent' then, everybody calls Maggie but I can't actually recall many other PM's giving us anything better. 3 day working week, unions striking to show they ruled, I don't think we can blame everything on her.

 

[SimonG]

Think this should be in the arms. 🙂

 

[Barry98]

ok on it

 

[SimonG]

I was born in 68, personally I liked her but on the other hand the wife was born in 62 and hates her for taking away her school milk. Either way RIP.

What industry? We were lazy and needed a kick up the arse.

I do (born early 70's) and it wasn't fun!

She may have improved the south but she destroyed the north, people talk about 3 day working week. My dad was lucky to stay in work a lot of my uncles and my dads friends where not they had a 0 day working week.
