If Thatcher had not happened most of the functions fulfilled by IT systems would still be labour intensive. .

Fook me, so now you're claiming Thatcher invented computing and automation ?
So British banks and business would have paper-run systems even though their American and European counterparts would have beeen automated?
Oh sorry I forgot, the yanks would not be able to automate their systems without Thatcher's invention.
You do know the computer was really invented using government money? Just like the internet and the WWW?
Clearly not.

Fook me your imbecility has gone beyond parody

when I left school I did some work experience at the local council it was horrifyingly slow probably a tenth or any normal job.

10 years later I did a lot of work with local councils they were only half the speed of private business.

I dont "do" thinking - that's for clever people like you. I prefer to remain stupid and let clever people like you go out and do the work and pay me for doing nothing.

I work direct.

I think you are showing a lack of knowledge there. She didn't close the grammar schools local authorities with Labour leadership closed them. Where Conservatives lead the council then (Buckinghamshire, Kent some parts of Yorkshire) Grammar schools still exist.

"Margaret Thatcher holds the prize as the secretary of state who closed or merged the most grammar schools for a comprehensive alternative. "

Education: The end of the grammar school? - Education News - Education - The Independent

"Look at the facts. How many grammar schools did the Conservative governments of Margaret Thatcher and John Major create? Answer: none.

Going further back, how many grammar schools were turned into comprehensives under Edward Heath's government, when a certain Margaret Thatcher was education secretary? Answer: lots.

Indeed, Mrs Thatcher (as she then was) is understood to have signed away more grammar schools between 1970 and 1974 than any other education secretary before or since."
