Would prefer 'singed', but maybe not yet...

When she is lowered into the ground maybe that useless son of hers can throw himself in too. 2 for the price of one.

You obviously were not of an age to recall her time in office.

Indeed. Coal mined by children in Colombia was much cheaper.


So we stopped using the adult French coal then?

As someone not old enough to remember Thatcher as PM, can someone list out the reasons she's hated so much?

The woman was a Goddess. It warms my heart reading the comments of the usual suspects.

She closed kids cancer wards while praising champagne swilling yobs who made money while the country crashed into recession.

She engineered a war and got hundreds of servicemen killed because she was lagging behind in the polls and would have lost the next election.

She closed down whole communities which depended on coal and allowed heavily subsidised imports to come into the UK, while refusing to subsidise UK coal.

Basically, she did not care one iota about the suffering of the majority and did everything she could to increase the wealth of the already obscenely rich.

I for one would pi$$ on her grave

This is the kind of exaggerated bull that gets talked about Mrs Thatcher.

- She increased spending on healthcare

- She didn't engineer anything in the Falklands. A right wing fascist dictator General Galtieri invaded them without warning and the UK recaptured them. It was Galtieris military government in Argentina that engineered the Falklands war and it was entirely avoidable in fact there was already a process of talks about sovereignty about the Falklands and some discussion about a 'lease back' agreement offering the islands to become Argentinian territory in exchange for protecting British laws and way of life for the islanders. Galtieri then invaded the islands by force and imposed the same military rule that he had over Argentina. The islanders didn't want that. The UK sent a task force to recapture it (at high cost).

- The UK wasn't subsidising the coal it was importing. It was importing it from places like Poland where their own government was subsidising it, which isn't the same thing as us subsidising the imports. Yes you are right she didn't subsidise our coal but if it needed those heavy subsidies it was a declining industry.
