"It's a bit pathetic to accuse Mrs Thatcher (note the mmannerly use of the Prefix) of being divisive, when half of you are busily engaged in the same actions."

No disrespect meant, but how do you know everyone's being divisive? Perhaps people's experiences mean they reason to see Thatcher as divisive, I know mine certainly did. Also, many people work towards community cohesion and making the places they live better places to be on a voluntary basis, working hard for the common good. It does happen, and despite the likes of Thatcher and Cameron and his insulting 'Big Society' some people do it for reasons other than economics. They haven't driven compassion out of society yet.

If this reeks of self-rightousness then I would simply ask you to read some of the drivel that has been talked and written by admirers of the now rusting Iron Lady.

I patted her on the back once (true). Streuth.
