      A great day! It’s just a shame she was ever elected. Considering her economic policies, it would be interesting as to whether or not she could get elected today. I certainly hope not.

      Two months before the fall of the Berlin Wall, Margaret Thatcher told President Gorbachev that neither Britain nor Western Europe wanted the reunification of Germany and made clear that she wanted the Soviet leader to do what he could to stop it. Which is code for, send in the troops. This alone condemns her for all history, as it shows she was at heart anti-democratic.

      She was an awful, cold politician: remember this person once proudly,happily quoted Ayn Rands ( another decent human,not)
      with “There is no such thing as society”
      Strangely, instead been seen as embodying the absolute truth that given power and opportunity women will/do act no differently than men, this woman is still held up as a role model by many feminists. The apologists argue that she showed strenght/character. BS. as if this is any excuse for the way she acted.

      Probably the greatest day in the history of the UK, if not the world, though challenged by Ronald Rayguns departure. Her time in government should act as a reminder as to why the Tories should never be trusted with anything.

      Whenever you see Joe Hockey or Turnbull in parliament screaming “Stop Spending” when questions are asked of the stimulus package, think back to the mess the Tories made when they faced the same situation - “don’t spend, let’s just see what will happen”.

      Ronald Raygun!  What a funny commentator you are ‘What’.  Haven’t got a f**‘en clue about contemporary politics but when it comes to name calling there’s no-one can match you.
