Nevertherless you are happy for those fascists to invade the Falklands without any condemnation; in an somewhat sick juxtaposition with the poll tax.
Maybe contemplate that many Argentinians were saved from murder as a result of Britian defeating the fascist Generals.0 -

Not really no. I've long had respct on this forum for Thatcher and have said so on many threads before now. Therefore it's of no surprise I'm doing so here and feel it's saddening to have people dancing on a grave that hasn't yet even been excavated. Theres not some alterior motive here, and it's quite dissapointing that yourself and wotsthat have deicded to try and make something of my posts on this thread to be honest.
May I suggest a little dignity? Try to refrain from turning this news into a points scoring contest?0 -

Arguably, yes! It was Margaret who gave the casino culture its first cut-price gambling chips when she off-loaded much of the social housing stockWhen Gordon Brown pops his clogs the resulting thread will be identical.
I very much doubt it!
Margaret Thatcher was well used to being abused during her lifetime, and will be unaffected from now on, bless her soul.
If it is true that the 20th century produced only two great PMs, then the next 87 years might be crucial for all of us
