Leenia ... I am not angry because a woman got to a position of power, nor am I jealous of women, I am a woman and I believe in challenging the glass ceiling. I also beleve that Mrs Thatcher did the whole of womankind a dis-service and dealt equality issues a major set back because there were so few women who figured prominantly in politic those who were there started being seen as typical of what any woman in power would be like. It was not that she didn't act like a "national mum" it was that she acted like a self-centred, souless, ambitious, profiteering, short-sighted bully, putting the immediate needs of the few above both the the immediate and future needs of the rest of the country.
