Subject: RE: BS: UK General Election
What is correct Sandman was that in 1979 Thatcher took over a Britain considered by many in the world to be on it's last legs. A country where the electorate were sick to the back teeth of Trades Union interference and Labour incompetence. In the course of the three Parliaments she served as Prime Minister she turned that situation around so much so that in 1997 when Tony Blair won the first of his three elections no incoming government had ever been handed an exchequer or economy in a better state. Thirteen years later in 2010 Labour under the guiding hands of Blair and Brown had squandered the lot.

Now we have Corbyn attempting to turn the clock back with tired, old, disproven ideas that come attached with costs that Labour cannot quantify.
