What exactly did Maggie Thatcher do to deserve such a grand funeral?
f**ked over a load of northern tossers. Maggie
Snatched a bloody victory from the jaws of a negotiated settlement.
Destroying the unions was enough without all the other stuff
Saved the economy from the state Labour had got it into (sound familiar), smashed the big-mouthed
unions, led the UK to victory against Argentina to retain the Falklands, allowed more than 1million families to buy their council houses, nearly doubled personal wealth across the UK, saw the number of adults in the UK owning shares treble.
Need I continue?
nope , thats sums it up nicely
also all this diversive bollocks is left wing lies
won 3 f**king elections , and the country (apart from miners and left wing extrmists) were right behind her when she crushed Scargil
Hmm, that's not strictly true. My dad was a lifelong Tory after voting for 'em in 79, he never voted
for them again, he couldn't stand her or her politics. He wasn't the only one who did, either in my family or across large chunks of the U.K.
She also ushered in permanent welfarism via incapacity benefit, mass comprehensive education
by closing down more grammar schools than any other education minister, replaced manufacturing industry with reliance on people selling each other money that doesn't exist and unrestrained credit dependency (what could possibly go wrong there?) and helped politicise environmentalism.
Just a few things we don't often hear about. ;-)
