    Ok, So we might as well get it all out in the open once and for all..

    Did you personally like or dislike what Margaret Thatcher did during her time as PM? and why?

    Online Opinion Against
    -Sold off all the council houses so that working class families can't get decent housing these days and are forced to rent from Slumlords at high prices

    -Sold off the Utility Companies to Private owners so that now pensioners freeze to death in winter because they can't afford the expensive fuel prices charged by these profit-hungry monstrosity companies.

    -Stopped free school milk

    -Poll Tax/Council Tax (making everyone pay a huge chunk of their income to the Local Authority in Tax with no regard as to their ability to pay this)

    -Decimated our Heavy Industries costing millions of jobs - at the height of her power there were 3 million unemployed!!

    -Destroyed the Trade Unions, robbing the working man of the right to stand up for himself

    -Turned this country from a place where people lived in strong communities with a sense of culture and heritage into a capitalist hellhole where everyone is laden with debt, morals and tradition has gone to the dogs and noone gives a sh*t about each other and only cares about credit cards and consumer crap.

    -Maggie is the reason this country is in such a mess today. Evil horrible woman, she's hated by everyone except the businessmen who made money under her.

            She did a bloody good job given the circumstances she inherited. Not perfect, and I'm sure if she had her time again she'd do a few things differently and might even be milder on some people, but she had to do the job without the benefit of hindsight. All of Europe could do with someone like her right now.

                      The Iron Lady is dead.

                      May she rust in peace.
