I thought i heard this on the radio earlier. But missed it as it was on in the background.
RIP The Iron Lady. One of the last British politicians that had the last "balls" to go against the grain and work to get things done and drive this nation forward.

This "Iron Lady" ripped the heart out of every mining community there was from the Midlands right up through to middle Scotland.
I come from one of those community's & I for one will have a beer on the old ...
There's plenty up here who would dance on her grave as we all endured the miners strikes & she used Scotland as a guinea pig for the poll tax!!!

Grantham is at a standstill, high street is shut, news crews everywhere. Think the police will be busy, bound to be some protestors about.

Like her politics or not, she had character and a backbone, especially when dealing with EU nonsense.

She also donated her entire PM's salary to charity and drew no income from the taxpayer.

We need more politicians like her, not the money grubbing self promoting career grabbers we have now.

I was too young to vote for her. I don't agree with some of her actions. But i do have a lot of admiration for people who stand by there opinion and have the courage to carry out what they say.
No politition will do right by everybody. That's why there's more than one party. I admire the lady for her British mentality and the fact she had a backbone. Something most MP's seem to be lacking of late.

She divides opinion but as ATS says, what we wouldn't give to have politicians like her in this day and age instead of the money grabbing mummies boys we have

 

[Andy Allen]

she done us proud during the falklands war...

I was one of the thousands that ended up in court for non payment of poll tax when she first bought that pearler out.


I want my milk back as well.

Second to Churchill, our greatest politician. Stood up for this country and wouldn't let people walk all over us like they do today. She would have eaten Tony Bliar for breakfast.

Could you imagine the likes of Abu Hamza hanging around for long if she was still in charge. He would have been shipped out years ago, along with anyone with a hatred for Great Britain.

She may have broken the mining community but if anyone can tell me what Arthur Scargill did for them, I'm all ears.
