    I would have liked to see what kind of Labour Party he would have shaped, I am too young to remember his outlook.

    Seriously? Thatcher? the removal of so many rights of ordinary people; 'greed is good' mentality; demise of council housing; a selfish me,me,me society; demise of community spirit - not to mention taking away my school milk!! I'm not saying that Blair, Brown got it right - they basically tinkered with policies, did a few good bits but the idea was still that the needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many (to reword Mr Spock's phrase), business is boss and the little people have to put up and shut up. But I would squarely lay the pitiful state of this country at the feet of Thatcher and find it abhorrent that anyone would think that bringing her back would solve the problems of today. Fully agree with Elvis Costello sentiments from many years ago. Suggest those of you with your brains engaged, support (if you haven't already) the attempts of the Occupy protesters (which is NOT an anti-capitalist protest) to address wealth inequality (WE ARE THE 99%) and the efforts to introduce a financial transactions tax (RobinHoodTax.org). Okay climbing off soapbox now.
