Don't bring the tories into it. This isn't about them. They are just one of a number of partys who will contest the next election.

Say what you like about Thatcher and I loathe the woman, but she never aggressively invaded and illegally occupied another country.

I'm also not interested in talking abour the successes or failures. of new labour domestic policies, as it might end up like praising Mussolini for making the trains run on time.
