Trying to decide on my mourning suit. Black, with black tie or Black with blue tie. Trying to work out the most respectful funeral wear for this momentous occasion and celebration of the good lady's life. Unfortunately i can't be there but i will observe as much as i can from my office - my entrepreneurial base - for which Margaret was so much responsible for creating with her excellent economic policies. An inspiration for the go getters and workaholics, an enemy to the lazy work shy fops that blight our country today. The only pity is the science of Cryopreservation has not yet advanced far enough.

Well f**k my hat, I didn't know that! Come all without, come all within, we're London Broncos not the H********s!:16679.jpg



I'm genuinely surprised at how much pro-Thatcher sentiment on here. As a Southerner and public sector worker who lived through the 80s, all I can thank her for was for politicising me. Although not directly involved I cannot forgive her for destroying the manufacturing base of the UK and consequently the communities dependent on them, and for an encore she opened up the city for the spivs to turn the stock exchange into a bloody casino! She was a bigoted, nasty Little Englander and all this talk of her being so 'marvellous' frankly makes me want to vomit! Anyone whose first response to the deaths if severAl hundred young men on the Belgrano was 'rejoice' doesn't deserve any sympathy . Sadly New Labour didn't have the balls to repeal any of her divisive laws,and with the current mob in charge we'll sadly see her nasty legacy live on. Wish I could feel anything but loathing right now but I can't I'm afraid!

I was just thinking similar about Thatcher in she got people thinking and a heck of alot of good music, comedy, filmaking, writing etc came out of people being "politicised" by the way the country was going under her. Sadly I can never seeing young people taking such an interest in whats going on around them in the future as apathy is probably the best way to describe the general view of politics since she quit.

Who was that then?

Because it wasn't Thatcher.

Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. (Winston Churchill):d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40218.jpg



Quote: WormInHand "I was. What about you?'"

Yep. Me too. But I am not demonising Thatcher or spitting on her grave as others are, and it is those who were referred to.

Judging by the number of tweets asking "who's this Thatcher person?", I fear you may be correct.

Although I do live in hope that once the people who support benefit cuts realise that they too are having their benefits cut, we may see a little more animation

Quote: Knuckles "I went to college in Widnes in the 70's and saw it was a terrible place. It isn't now, you obviously don't know that Widnes or your simply ignorant.'"


Must admit having been to Widnes last weekend, there and Warrington look like boom towns compared with most parts of the UK - still building houses everywhere. Car parks full of flash cars. Certainly a far cry from the 60s and 70s.

Nobody needs to demonise Thatcher. Her own evil deeds unveiled her as the devil incarnate.

Nuff said.
