    Yep, they conveniently forget the 13 years they were given to put right the 'bad' things the Tories supposedly did.

    Did they reverse any Tory policies and legislation ? Re-open the mines ? Give the miners their jobs back ? Help the British motor industry ? Nope... too busy filling their pockets and giving each other Peerages. Damned hypocrites.

    David Cameron has just sent his offical letter to the Thatcher residence.

    It starts "I regret to inform you that due to recent events you now have too many bedrooms..." .

    You forgot to mention that the working class party also spent 13 years deregulating and sucking up to the evil bankers in the City of London

    she dangled the carrots in front of the working man, appearing to give them something but really she took everything else away, too bad the carrots didnt help them to see the 666 on her forehead, the following labour gov was a bunch of usless waste, but even if they were any good how could any gov put right what she had done in all her years in office, 50 yrs never mind 13 would never fix the damage,
    good riddance maggie enjoy hell

    Hmm ... ... you could be right, Les ... in which case, serious consideration might need to be given to including the 'Iron Lady' among forbidden topics for discussion!

    Under Labour these councils were free to rake in as much council tax as they wanted - I'd have expected the Northern labour strongholds to be throwing some of it back towards their voters and building shed loads of houses. Then again they gave all the existing houses to immigrants and so called "asylum seekers" in the great multiculturalism and vote rigging project.

    The only time in my life I felt more British than any other time was during the Falklands War.... since then it's just gone downhill with a bunch of EW bum hole lickers running the country.

    'I'm not concerned with Diplomacy...I'm concerned with fighting terrorism'.

    - Margaret Thatcher.

    Come back, we need you.

    I can just see her putting up with these convicted foreign terrorists living amongst us, and all this 'human rights' nonsense.

    She fought for the minority not the majority and thus can't be classed as a great leader. Both her and Tony Blair have screwed up this country.
