In my eyes and in my short life of voting too, i think she was the best prime minister we have ever had, but thats my thoughts and i now a few may disagree too,

Me too Steve, no more beer and sandwiches going in the front door of number 10.

Hmm ... you're wondering who was asked, Steve? Well, I certainly wasn't :nono-1-1: ... but, had I been, I'd have to agree that her nickname, "The Iron Lady", summed up her reputation among the Scots, who held her accountable for introducing the hated Poll Tax north of the Border on a purported "trial basis" in the first instance. And, to the best of my knowledge, it was that act of hers - above ALL others - that led to her memory becoming so vilified among the Scottish electorate, at least.

Having said that, many former council tenants (myself included) have cause to be grateful to Thatcher for the 'Right To Buy' policy she implemented throughout the UK. Alas, the Scottish Government has now discontinued this excellent scheme that helped millions of ordinary folk (again like myself) gain access to the property ladder.

Unpopular though she may have been (if the survey presented is to be believed!) IMO, she was one of THE most *capable Prime Ministers in British history ... of *that, there can be little doubt. :NoNo:

A list that places the co perpetrator that caused the mess now seen in the middle east 4th is not worth considering!!!

Among the worst things Thatcher did was selling off Council housing without making sure they were replaced 1 for 1.
Many were bought then sold off for a profit, This has resulted in a huge loss of needed housing for the very people Council housing was intended for.:mad:

It was a vote catcher for her nothing more.:NoNo:

Yes indeed, while of course the scheme benefitted many like Arthur, to deplete the public housing stock in the way that it did was a very bad move, IMO. :NoNo:
