The Torygraph earlier closed the comments section of the Thatcher story, requesting instead that people e-mailed their tributes. The was just tweeted by the editor:
Tony Gallagher @gallaghereditor
We have closed comments on every #Thatcher story today - even our address to email tributes is filled with abuse

Tesco/Asda/Sainsbury/Morribobs would have done that anyway - you cannot restrict the size of a firm in a competitive market, especially if said employer employes ten of thousands of people. So what would gentleman Jim done - asked Arthur!!
Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.

You can restrict the size of a firm in a competitive market quite easily.

Thank you for your admission that "a competitive market" reduces choice.

ANC boycotting the funeral
And this is from Dali Tambo, son of former ANC president Oliver Tambo.
My gut reaction now is what it was at the time when she said my father was the leader of a terrorist organisation. I don't think she ever got it that every day she opposed sanctions, more people were dying, and that the best thing for the assets she wanted to protect was democracy.
Many lives were lost. It's a shame that we could never call her one of the champions of the liberation struggle. Normally we say that when one of us goes, the ANC ancestors will meet them at the pearly gates and give them a standing ovation. I think it's quite likely that when Margaret Thatcher reaches the pearly gates, the ANC will boycott the occasion.
