    PS Looks? Hmmm. Bet she's got a very big bum.
    And an even bigger sense of persecution.

      I always thought she was OK, but the private school hypocrisy was pretty poor. Then when she pulled the 'black mothers will understand' line, she showed herself as another tulipty politician.


      Corbyn is possibly one of the only decent honest MPs. Shame he's so crap.

        And he has some very dubious Irish friends.

          Look at Thatcher and Pinochet. Everyone has dubious friends.


          Even Tim Farron is friends with Nick Clegg.

            Friends is probably a bit strong but as this story points out she had a debt.

            Thatcher always honoured Britain's debt to Pinochet - Telegraph

            On June 8, however, the long-range radar had to be switched off for overdue maintenance. Argentine aircraft were thus able to launch a surprise attack, sinking the troopships Sir Galahad and Sir Tristram, with terrible casualties. Whether Britain could have won the Falklands War without Chile's help is debatable. Whether it could have done so without far greater loss of lives is simply not. Pinochet, who took every key decision, fully deserved Mrs Thatcher's gratitude.
            Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

              Thatcher didn't invite for tea people who wouldn't think twice about bombing or shooting you and your family. Bit of a difference in my book.

                  Lady Thatcher has campaigned for his release ever since his arrest in London.

                  Pinochet was an annual visitor to her home in London after he stepped down from power in 1990, always sending flowers and chocolates on his arrival in England.

                  Days before his arrest he was invited for tea at the former premier's home.

                      Didn't realise it's OK to have people round for tea who like to have non-British political dissidents raped by dogs. Thank you for clarifying for me.
