Subject: RE: Falklands 25yearson /HorseGuards Parade
I am with you, Dave. All this anniversary stuff has me clenching my oversize buttocks like never before. Without the war Thatcher may well have not gone on, so damagingly, for anything like as long as she did, and the war was her way of perpetuating herself.   There wasn't exactly much else going for her at the time. Then she demolished the miners and the mines and trade unionism. That's the legacy of the Falklands war.
