Do you like Maggie Thatcher?

[KeithD]

Wonderful babe :Sex: :grosyeux:

[imagine]

your avin a larff :laugher::laugher:

[Jamesey]

This is a difficult one and I don't think I can vote!

At the time she was in power, I was just a kid, but I'd definitely say that I didn't like her! However, now that I am an adult, looking back on her policies, I think that many of them were the right thing to do.

I wouldn't say that I "don't care" because she was an important historical leader.

But what isn't in question is her personal achievement, at a time when politics was dominated by men.

[grahamw48]

She was one of a kind...that's for sure. :smile:

No wonder she's a good performer in the house...having been an Oscar winner. :smile:

Thatcher this, Thatcher that.

Im nearly at thatcheration point :).

[grahamw48]

Yes, that's why I tried to balance things out a little.

After all, there are sooo many attractive and gifted ladies in the other parties.

:xxparty-smiley-004:

[mickcant]

I voted no, and yes at 68 I remember her from the early days:furious3:
I am not much into politics just never liked her.
Mick.:olddude:

[jonnijon]

She stood up for Britain and what was British :Britain:

[grahamw48]

...and she was pretty fit.

i could not have said it better myself, well said:xxgrinning--00xx3:

[Michael Parnham]

I voted yes, I didn't agree with everything she said, having said that, you always knew that what she said she meant and never changed her mind so you knew where you stood wether you liked it or not. Very strong and brave woman!:xxgrinning--00xx3:

[joebloggs]

She stood up for Britain and what was British :Britain:

she sold everything off that was British :Britain:

[stevie c]

A definite no from me
She was a reversal of a modern day robin hood she robbed the poor to give to the rich:cwm23:

[fred]

she sold everything off that was British :Britain:

She sold off all the badly run British businesses that were losing money and noncompetitive.
They had to be subsidized by tax payers as they were run by fat lazy jobs worths who thought they had a cushy little number for life and protected by the unions.
Wrong!!
Sink or swim like the rest of us.
I dont agree with everything she did..The poll tax was a huge mistake that she paid for dearly.

[imagine]

she had nice legs, but her face and the sound of her voice made me :vomit-smiley-011: puke

[fred]

That poll is neck and neck..:cwm25:

[grahamw48]

she had nice legs, but her face and the sound of her voice made me :vomit-smiley-011: puke

See, you're warming to her Stewart. :biggrin:

Oh, maybe 'warming' is the wrong word today. :Erm:

[joebloggs]

She sold off all the badly run British businesses that were losing money and noncompetitive.

if ALL these British companies were so badly run, why did businesses and people risk their money buying shares then?

or is it a case of selling £10 notes for a £5 :icon_rolleyes::icon_rolleyes:

[Arthur Little]

:cwm25: ... mine is the solitary yellow vote so far. Tbh, though, I'm "easy~oasy"! :anerikke:

[imagine]

See, you're warming to her Stewart. :biggrin:

Oh, maybe 'warming' is the wrong word today. :Erm:

more like a cold shudder down my spine :icon_lol:

[Arthur Little]

I'm "easy~oasy"! :anerikke:

:yeahthat: said, I remain firmly committed to the statement I made on first learning of her demise, i.e. ... she was - and shall continue to be, renowned - for having been one of the STRONGEST and most influential figures in British politics.

[Ako Si Jamie]

It was 7-3 in the poll last time I looked :Erm:

[fred]

if ALL these British companies were so badly run, why did businesses and people risk their money buying shares then?

or is it a case of selling £10 notes for a £5 :icon_rolleyes::icon_rolleyes:

There is always risk involved when buying a companies shares..
As I said,sink or swim with the rest of us.
Fortunately newly privatized companies like B.T went from strength to strength after they were privatized. Given new Commercial freedoms, companies like BT were able to operate and expand globally.
Wish now I had got some myself back then!!

[joebloggs]

:icon_lol: Osborne the big :bigcry: baby :doh

[jonnijon]

Made good money my electric shares :xxgrinning--00xx3:

[Arthur Little]

Made good money my electric shares :xxgrinning--00xx3:

:xxgrinning--00xx3: ... that's good :icon_rolleyes: ... glad they've lived up to your "current" expectations. :smile:

[fred]
