Baroness Thatcher Dies

[poynton phil]

my family suffered because of her hatred for the N,U,M my father was on strike for over a year, standing up for what he believed in ,
she ripped the heart out of our community
and i for one celebrate her death , REST IN HELL[/QUOT

You say about the polices heavy handed tactics, what about the strikers. Does any body remember David Wilkie. That was Murder.

Im sure if Maggie was here now and operated the same way to perhaps sort out our immigration problems we wouldn't here much complaining.

There's not much love lost in Northern Ireland, everyone got shafted sooner or later.

RIP Maggie, tough decisions she had to make, but at least she made them and stuck to her guns. Britain's greatest ever PM imo, (Churchill included)

I don't know enough about Maggie to get involved, and the reason i don't know enough is because you cannot ask anyone to you give a balanced, non emotional answer about her and her doings. It's always black and white, and you're gaurenteed someone else will be listening and will be completely on the the opposite side of the fence, que the arguments!
And never mention Maggie if everyones been drinking!
You can be certain that there will be trouble at the funeral, by a generation that knew nothing about her ''borrowed nostalgia from the unremembered 80's'' to quote LCD Soundsystem.

Fantastic woman? not in any stretch of my imagination. I for one will not be mourning her passing, I saw my own village ripped apart when the miners were on strike. The coal miners needed a union otherwise they would have been living on starvation wages for back breaking and dangerous work. Without the unions the working man or woman would have never had a voice. She did nothing towards ending the peace process in Northern Ireland, the poll tax was a fiasco, and lets not even bring up the Falklands, when she was trying to sell it back to Argentina before they invaded.

But its all ok, lets just keep importing the coal from Russia because it seems these days, Im all right Jack and stuff the rest of you.
