well the fact was your section of the country was a robber, Mike. The tory constituencies were 'taken care of' in the Thatcher years and the rest of the country went to hell in a hand cart.

Den's relations living in Suffolk used to say to us - recession, what recession. this in aperiod were nearly every coal mine was closed. When about five mikles of steel mils outside Sheffield shrunk to one factory.

She told you you could build an economy on real estate values and service industries and YOU lot voted for it.

I'm sorry you can't see the facts or attempt to seem them as they were for many people in England. But it was very hard not to feel bitter towards tory voterif you lived in the vortex of all that suffering.

I suppose we're going that shit now about - it was all the fault of wicked working class unions having beer and sandwiches at number 19 with Harold Wison. If you actually worked in industry - you know that was bollocks - the shit leadership and lack of investment buggered our industries. Very few working people did anything except work very hard for not much money.

All one class's fault - and we all know which party is for giving them tax breaks.
