I can't speak for the Socialist Worker. I'm not a reader. However the action you describe was certainly reported in every other newspaper. Silas was mistaken on that point, but it was a minor error.   No need to make meal out of it. I used to live near Lympstone nad have a high regard for thr Marines , but an action by a dozen or so of them doesn't amount to a rebuttal of the facts that everyone knows, and which you are trying to avoid.

Namely that Thatcher buggered up and gave the impression somehow that she wasn't going to defend The Falklands. Then the British armed forces had to pull her chestnuts out of the fire, and then she tried to get the disfigured and wounded ones banned from the victory parade. Complete bastard!

And yes I had an education. Please stop sneering at the fact. and telling me that i didn't live through what I lived through. Every bugger in England read (those of us with an education to read) voraciousloy throughout the campaign, and were glued to our radios and tv news bulletins.
