  1. The policies enacted by her leadership of the government resulted in 1.5 mill being added to dole queue. She was the Prime minister when unemployment broke thru the 3 million mark for the first time in the post war era. She was against sanctions to be imposed upon Apartheid South Africa and called Mandela, a future Nobel Peace Prize winner, a terrorist. She supported the overthrow of a popularly elected government in Chile by right wing dictator Pinochet, okayed the giving of arms to Saddam Hussein and gave her backing to the murderous regime of Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia after the Vietnamese invaded and overthrew the regime. Not a very good looking track record there if you ask me

     

    Wow with her record simply being such terrible things and obviously nothing at all positive, it's quite incredible that the UK population elected her as Prime Minister three times isn't it!

     

    Hey did those unemployement figures that are so often quoted continue to go up and up during her time in charge? I don't think change has ever been easy, and it wasn't. Seems some people would have preferred the country remain in the stone ages.

  2. It's amazing how people know that 'she' (personally) put 'one and a half million' on the dole. Not a few more or a few less?

     

    Thing is, many people are so blinded by their hatred and contempt of Thatcher that they simply can't see or accept anything other than what they already believe.

     

    If it wasn't so pathetic, I'd find it quite amusing actually seeing all these bitterheads getting all worked up about it and then celebrating the death of a very old woman.

  3. I saw Skyfall as well.

    Really enjoyed it.

    Lighter than the last one for sure, more humour - though obviously not Moore-level.

     

    Agree with you Bag, a naughty meglomaniac is due.

    Blofeld perhaps, I believe they have the rights to him now.

    I suppose the biggest issue is how to make it "not Austin Powers"!
