As Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher was a classical fascist who walked with fascists and used fascist methods to support the privileged.
She used the British Police Force as a private army to oppose any efforts by workers to better themselves. In the words of one of her predecessors she 'pawned the family silver' for the benefit of the wealthy, and in doing so, tore Britain in half.
I agree entirely with people who say that those who came after her are little better than she was, including the present occupants of Downing Street, but without her efforts they would not have got away with it.
