    The Iron Lady[^] Seriously? Meryl Streep? Have they not got an English Actress? Still, Gord Bless 'Er. The Greatest PM ever, she made this country great again, frightened Johnny Foreigner and broke the communist rule of the unions. I am a child of Thatcher's generation, I got off my arse and worked hard, and reaped the rewards. We won't see her like again!

      I know many Italians, and none are so bad as to have deserved him! So the evidence is clear, it is all down to you Carlo! :)

                      Toxteth, St Pauls, Brixton, and those are just the riots I can remember. Inflation at 20%, unemployment rocketing, the north utterly devestated. Coal mines closed, industrial production wiped out. And now Britain is totally dependent on London for its entire income, and look where thats got us. Yeah, indeed, she was very good at destroying things. But wht did she replace it with? Unfettered greed?

                                      Wasn't it Maggie that started the privatisations off in the first place or was that someone else? i.e. BT

                                      As barmey as a sack of badgers Dude, if I knew what I was doing in life, I'd be rich, retired, dating a supermodel and laughing at the rest of you from the sidelines.

                                        Yeah, I'm pretty sure the 'big-bang' in the city was on her watch too (1986?). Fun as it is to blame the hapless Brown for everything he can only be blamed here for contiuing her policies. Andy B

The Greatest PM ever, she made this country great again, frightened Johnny Foreigner and broke the communist rule of the unions. I am a child of Thatcher's generation, I got off my arse and worked hard, and reaped the rewards. We won't see her like again!

                                          I am a child of Thatcher's generation(born in 1979). Thatcher did a lot of good but also a lot of bad. Her obsession with Privatisation killed Britain. Denis should have been the man she needed and slapped sense into her when she started to get power mad.
