Subject: RE: BS: Pro / Anti Thatcher Squabble Thread...
Still no comment on Thatcher's extremism, so as long as "the trains ran on time" it was of no importance that she implicated Britain with The Butcher of Chile and the Moron in the White House.
Doesn't matter too much if unemployment reached its highest level following her winning an election on the slogan "Labour isn't working".
Rising rents, increased homelessness - nah, not important - it's only those who don't count.
Thatcher created mass poverty and hardship among the lower paid and in the meantime made the rich richer - that was her legacy to Britain
Her economic policies failed and the people of Britain were left worse off in a way that had never happened before - she tore Britain in half - a well-documented fact.
The was a political thug who became an embarrasment to her own party "of Wets" - the even despised those who served under her.
Did I mention her support for facism - you haven't, nor have any of you the balls to.
It has become a political tradition to blame their predecessors for their failure - thatcher refined that by blaming the working people and removing their rights of representation.
And still the W.W.1 jingoism and claims of having won the argument - as much a victory as was Gallipoli, I'd say, wouldn't you?
