She's dead

And that benefit reliant society that Fox likes to have go about was born from the depression she created under her imperious rule.

A point that gets all too easily forgotten. She clubbed the country into depression and bred a generation who'd grown up with parents either on the dole or living on meager incomes, leaving them with lowered aspirations.

For all the Tories shaking up of the benefit system now, it's forcing many people into employment that barely puts their household above poverty, again.

Hopefully this travesty of a funeral will generate such reactions from the average Joe that will be a massive wakeup call for this Government. I doubt they'll give a fuck though.

My dad was a plasterer and my Mum did every bar/cleaning/factory job she could through the 80's, we were lucky to a degree but we weren't well off, we were just lucky both of our parents had some form of employment. My Mum at one point was working in one job in the day and cleaning of a night, when she mentioned this outside school one day when I was in Primary School, a woman nearly tore her face off - how dare she have two jobs when her husband couldn't get ONE, that's how hurt and incensed it made people at the time.
 
I'm storing this thread up until I get home from work. Take it all in but I've a feeling the like button is gonna be pressed several times.
 
Is there really an alternative way to judge the quality of a wine than checking the alcohol percentage and choosing the highest?

News to me
that and the price, if its a party or something its a good £4, but if im gona crank it up to £6 or even £8 then im really expecting one lucky lady to respond well to me smacking my bellend on her lower back as she tries to nap off the all the rape mussels ive been slipping into her fish pie
 
Interesting read

I actually care much less than I thought.....she faded like an old bully from your school days into someone who sometimes clouds your dreams from another life time, someone who once dominated your life but is now a ghost. I was a young boy when she ruled with an Iron hand. There was no room for compromise or sympathy...I used to feel like we were under attack..on TV, in the papers...people often say their childhood memories are of sunny days mine are of winter nights lit with the orange fizz of street lights and kicking a ball with the boys. Pretty much everyone hated her where I came from. It was like breathing to us. We had 6 pits employing over 11,000 people in the Merthyr borough alone..all smashed within a year of the strike. Economic they told us...not political...no coal left and too expensive to get out!! 30 years later and they've opened the top of the mountain where I come from and they're taking it out in tonnage like you wouldn't believe. She lied. She hated us. The people of South Wales. We were unionised, we all knew one another, no one cared who was rich...we were all in the same boat really so it didn't matter. You see...she told us there was no such thing as society when we were living lives where we walked into one another's houses and called out mothers friends 'auntie' and went on holiday en mass together. So she went about the systematic destruction of our way of life..being rich become good...having a house a must...suddenly there was mass unemployment with no chance of work...and the culture of despair set in..something we are still fighting. So I won't be lamenting the passing of a great politician today...or a great woman...I'll ignore all the sycophantic nonsense spewing from the media tonight...because I am from Merthyr Tydfil and I am not Thatchers child as they call our generation..and I'll go I my grave being a Valley boy who saw first hand what she did to my people
 
my missus just came up with a beauty

She said Maggie may have made some shocking decisions but she also made some very good ones so why are people celebrating her death?

She said people sympathised when sodding Jade Goody died who was a thick racist chav and Amy Winehouse who was a druggie useless cow who had a couple of decent songs.

Ha love that

So how are they necessarily the same people?
 
Apart from marching into a working men's club in the Liverpool docklands, with a certain newspaper under your arm, I can't think of a less likely place you could choose than this forum to try to put forth the positives of Margaret Thatcher, especially if you aren't from the city itself (which I assume you are not). I'm not picking on you here, as you seem an affable fellow in the main, I'm just a bit bemused at the strategy.
Oh yes because everyone on here is from Liverpool. Be surprised if 50% were
 
Fox, she was part of the cover up of Hillsborough

Does that not sicken you? Anger you? Make your hate her?

If not, fine, log off and keep away from this thread for a couple of days
 
I wonder what the poor bastards on board the Belgrano thought of Thatcher as it was hit?

"I wish our military dictatorship hadn't put us in this terrible position by going up against a powerful foe with a long history of imperialism and war mongering now ruled by an uncompromising woman looking to make a point on the world stage when we've only got some hopelessly outdated weaponry and an army of mostly conscripts whilst they have some of the best soldiers in the world"?

In Spanish, of course.
 
Her cabinet were against it. They were even prepared to hand the islands over to Argentina as long as they agreed to maintain a British way of life for the inhabitants. The old fucking bag was having none of it.

She was somebody's mother Fabio !

Of course, as a mother, she could completely empathise with the heartbreak of mothers who lost sons and daughters there whose grief was made worse by the lies propagated by a police force she unjustifiably empowered and her political cronies. Who have all been subsequently been shown to be cunts and liars.
 
Basically there's 2 things with Hillsborough. She knew about the cover up or she didn't.

If she knew she's one of the worst types of people

If sh didn't know then she had little control over the police and some of her cabinet.

Either way she's a fucking ming

Don't be daft of course if it ever comes out conclusively that she knew then nobody could defend her. I certainly wouldn't.

This "close to deceitful" statement that Cameron mentioned and the worry she had about the way it looked for the police does not look good but they have to find more evidence than that to blame her and say she knew of entire coverup.

Can't believe you think anyone let alone a reds fan would forgive her for that
 
In all fairness to the witch she had to react against the invasion of those islands. There was no other option.

Great headline at the time.

Whether she knew or not she gave the police forces pretty much free license to deal with football hooligans and striking union members as they saw fit.
 
So I've been called a cunt loads on here today and I've insulted posters I normally like but let's all rejoice in one thing. Utd lost.

You performed as I expected, Fox. You may have pissed people off, but you haven't disappointed or surprised anyone. So that's something.

!




Fuck that bitch.
Yet another good thing from Maggie's death
 
Nor the lives that were lost in the political point scoring bollocks that was the Falklands.

Sorry Mark, that's bullshit. Her private secretary was on the radio earlier saying how much she cried at the losses suffered in The Falklands conflict. She may not have shown she was bothered before she sent people there, but it would appear the losses hit home.

That doesn't make her good or me an apologist for her btw, before I get set upon!
