Ther was nothing great about Thatcher and the continued adulation she gets amazes me. She brought the Chicago School “Friedmanite” policies to this country. The policies that devastated Chile and Argentina et al and put us in the mess we are in now. No subsequent PM has had the guts to change it,. While the States has seen the light and elected a pro active president who is going ahead and changing direction, we will probably elect a reactionary bunch of conservatives who will try to turn back the clock. History will show that the mess we are in started with her, she was a disaster. 



A quick reflection on the past.

Mole this might be miles wide of the mark but I’ve got this niggling feeling in the back of my head that you don’t really like our only woman PM that much do you ???
Roger i liked her as much as the Labour Party like me.
For most people it was a Bad time.thats unless you where in the elite an had a Job. My Uncle said to me if the miners Loose it will be the end of the industry, peoples fear of unemployment sections of the community getting rich on the back of others. Dot Coms -Get on your Bike well the rest is History and most of the up and Coming Tories look on her like a god. Sorry if it sounds a little bitter.but i can’t change on this one.
