  • Being born into a generation that doesnt know what real music is and is doomed to pay for the last generations mistakes, just like our kids will pay for ours, I find it will be a lot easier to, instead of work my arse off and die, go anywhere and travel till I die

  • Wowza, Replace Thatcher w/ Reagan and you got yourself a song about the U.S.

  • Comment removed

  • i love how frank turner doesnt dance around the subject people need to write more songs like this

  • FUCKING BRILLIANT!

  • It's the truth! I'm all for the feminist movement and all but Thatcher really screwed us over...

  • @DarkFury1985 Thatcher really has nothing to do with the feminist movement, IMO. A polititian is a polititian.

  • @BTVSBlackIris And a bad speller is a bad speller.

  • @DarkFury1985 Thatcher may have been the first woman Prime Minister, but she never promoted any woman above junior minister, and made life worse for women and everyone else for a very long time

  • Torys are back in and so are the riots awww it's back to the 80s

  • fucking ex mate well done

  • 6 people are related to thatcher

  • the lyrics in the description are wrong he never says "

  • this is what happens when you rely on a government. but it doesn't matter who's in charge or anything. people will always find a way to screw other people over to get what they want.

  • I love that he's singing about how the world's basically fucked in the most upbeat, cheerul way possible.

  • he's singing about me <3

  • This is so relevant to the recent riot, shows people what happens when you vote in the Tories...

  • @Voxeran just as a point of reference what could labour have done differently if elected into  power to prevent the riots? oh and rock on frank turner!

  • It's not just adults a lot of people including myself bring my kids up to have morals and to want to work,correct some adults don't care and should have probaly not breeded these kids

  • No - it's not true - the kids are alright - it's the adults who are fucked and responsible. We've let them down . The cause should not blame the effect.

  • No - it's not true - the kids are alright - it's the adults who are fucked and responsible. We've let them down

  • Anyone link me to some articles to read up on about this?

  • There's no comunity left little shits think there hard in groups of ten guttless arseholes

  • oh frank, you were right all along.3 days or useless riots in the uk casued by 'kids' out to have a good time and 'show the police they have no control over them'. Maybe you were right all along and thatcher did indeed fuck the kids...

  • Superb. Nailed it.

  • IM A CHILD AND I LOVE THIS! thumbs up!

  • @Retrochip123 No. Fuck off.

  • cant fight against the youth oii

  • thatcher fucked the kids she should be fired at the moon with itchy

  • @SepradistPhantom the torys always wanted to shine anyway

  • @Sleck06

    lol

  • @SepradistPhantom She can't fit up her own arse though :P

  • The 2007 UNICEF Child Welfare Survey found that of the 21 richest countries in the world, the UK had the unhappiest children. We ranked highest in bullying and teenage pregnancies, last in communication with family and general health. The USA was right ahead of us.

    "and all the rich folks act surprised....."

  • What a great song and a great artist. I love this man.

  • no holds back the best type of music

  • Eh, I wouldn't say no-one ever helps a stranger. I've had my faith in humanity restored in this department lately. But yeah, fuck Thatcher.

  • funny, but kids have always been shits

  • thatchers britain

  • @Habbitwilldevil he means thatcher fucked up the kids

  • i always thought he meant kids are idiots!

  • Wow, that was remarkable!

  • @thejinkdful u have no clue what your saying! WHO dereguated them in the first place was it maybe ermmmmmmm thatcher and reagan ...........if u dont know what ur talking about best if u dont !

  • @pimski yes... that deregulation gave us growth for 12 years... thats why labour continued the reform, which meant that we had an even bigger boost for another 12 years... but they took it too far, moved regulatory power away from the BoE to the monkeys in the FSA, reduced the banks mandatory capital ratio's from 10% to 7% ... and instead of saving some of the tax revenue they got from the growth, labour spent more than they got in FOR 5 YEARS PRIOR TO RECESSION. "U" seem to be another idiot...

  • Non of the above! lol

  • 13 years of Labour,ya still blame Maggie?Dick

  • paedophile

  • You lot should check out Clayton Blizzard.

  • It may have been Thatcher who started it all, but the current and future governments will still carry it all on.

  • Frank Turner went to Eton College and is therefore a class traitor and hypocrite. It was his type that helped Thatcher and you know that when push comes to shove, Turncoat will always have privilege to fall back on.

  • @Jools65 So are you saying you don't agree with social mobility? That makes you as bad as Thatcher. I don't really understand what your stance is? An Eton education would have given him a pretty good grasp on social inequality, he's in the best position to Tory bash. Besides, he had a scholarship, not that it should matter.

  • @nifjen23 With you on all of that, though I think maybe 'social mobility' is misplaced. That's a fairly innately Tory concept.

  • "but you just close your eyes to the other side of alll the things he did... nick clegg fucked the kids..."

  • And now we're ruled by her self-branded 'children'. FUCK THIS COUNTRY!

  • How fitting this tune is now.

  • Change it to Politicians fucked the kids.

  • 3 people were a bit too fucked.

  • "Cameron fucked the kids" - Frank Turners new single for 2030...

  • @2205923358 kids, adults, working class. it is what we desearve for voting fucking consearvitive.

  • @2205923358  yes. You win there my friend. :)

  • i love him far too much. His songs really are just spot on. He doesnt warble on about pointless shit, he just gets right down to the point

  • Ten long long long years. I weep for my country.

  • @rederic2004 Better man up and get ready to fight, lest you want to suffer another 10 years of it.

  • Fuck Thatcher

  • Funny how this song doesn't come up in the search suggestions even though more than enough people search for this song.

    I Wonder why?

  • This is my new favourite song!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • THIS IS SO FUCKING TRUE!!!!!!!

  • Her social policies were bad, but her economic policies definitely made the best of Labour's bad situation. The similarity between then and now is that had Labour been re-elected in 1979 we'd have suffered the most catastrophic economic collapse in the same way we would have been had they been re-elected in 2010.

  • its all goin to happen again due to the new primister woooo

    the song is a stronge statment and very ture. people need to she though what they have been told and look around to see the mess she left! :(

  • Can't wait for the fucker Thatcher to die. Day off from work to celebrate her death I hope will be well attended by all who endured her assault on the working classes, particularly the miners and our manufacturing jobs. Rejoice, Rejoice. By the way, the Belgrano was....I repeat was sailing out some miles from the exclusion zone. Dont report it though the poor lady who did died mysteriously. and her spineless twat of a son escaped prosecution from financing a coup.  Thatcher fucked us all.

  • fucking love this song.

  • this is fantastic , sums up the conservative party in 1 song !!

  • haha, wicked!

  • What a fucking genious! ;) Gotta love frank!

  • Genius. So true. :)

  • They're not small, charming and harmless,

    They're a violent bunch of bastard little shits! LOL Can't stop laughin' this guy RULES!

  • This my my fav song by frank he's f**king amazing

  • haha

  • So true but the Tories and torie lights aka new labour refuse to acknowledge this

  • xD torie light...nice man

  • Haha love him!

  • ah brilliant

  • i love how cynical he is (:

    hes a fucking genius

  • i loveee frank turner - seeing him live in october. ohhh yeahh :D x

  • omg i love this

    im so happy my mate sent me this link

  • This is so true. I've been saying for ages that what we have now is nothing to do with today's government but a direct consequence of Thatcher's Britain. Unfortunately, people have short memories :(

  • Tories want to cut nursery, school and future job funding which lower income families and the middle classes benefit from. While giving the 3,000 families earning over £200,00 tax cuts! "Whats that? You cant afford a diamond encrusted tax disc holder in your Porsche 911? That family who can just about pay their bills should quit whining."

    Thatched did it and Cameron wants it!

  • @Didy810 It's got nothing to do with spending money we didn't have in the 70's? The opulence of nations squandered in a decade!

  • @Avionicgenius No. If you listen to the words it's about people's attitudes towards each other. Thatcher made people selfish, insular and uncaring. She created a society that told people they could have whatever they wanted, then took away their means of achieving it.

  • @Didy810 Just because someone sings a tale in such a way doesn't make it true!

    She didn't take away peoples means of achieving. In fact if you worked, you were rewarded.

  • @Avionicgenius

    You sound quite ignorant of the facts to me. She took away many people's chances of working if you remember (perhaps you were too young). Only a very few who 'worked' were as you call it 'rewarded'.

    There is much more to a successful society for us all than a few people able to make themselves a fortune. Somebody has to look after those who can't look after themselves.

    One day that could be you - don't take social care fore granted.

  • @Didy810 your are blinded by your personal experiences. the majority benefited. thats why she never got less than 13 million votes, more than any precious labour candidate ever got. your still fucking peasants as far as i can see.

  • @jinkedful You know nothing of my personal experiences. I am not blinded by anything - I was there. The majority did not benefit - and what about those who did not benefit - are we just to forget about them and leave them to struggle along?

    Typical Tory blinkered view.

  • @Didy810 precisely; you were there. you have no interest in the end results of what happened, because you only see what happened at the time. The majority have benefitted. Every credible source admits that. We are not to leave them, we are to help them, but first we must make a world where those that can look after themselves are allowed to, so they do not feel limited and are not made unneccessary burdens on the state. You of course resort to name calling. Its all your side have left.

  • @jinkedful Believe it or not I have been here since Thatcher, I wasn't just there at the time! The majority did not benefit, and the trouble she caused is still felt today in many ways,not just economic. Even if it were true that the majority benefited, there can be no excuse for the suffering caused to the rest.

    I'm still trying to find the part of my post where I resorted to name-calling.

  • @Didy810 "typical tory blinkered view"... and the point i was making is that the fact that you lived through the adjustment from socialism to popular capitalism has blinkered your view as to the improvements. I was pointing out that if you compare the standards of living/ state of things in 1979 to 1990, things were better in the 90s for most people. The unions were delt with. people could own there own homes. Wealth was availiable to the masses. she made the sick man of europe a world leader.

  • @jinkedful That wasn't a name it was a statement of fact.

    That wasn't a name, it was a statement of fact. What about the state of education and the health service in 1990 compared to today? You seem to have forgotten 18month waiting lists. Unions were' dealt with' far too heavy-handedly. She cared nothing for ordinary people's lives. However,I can see you're never going to accept the truth that she created much resentment and unfairness in this country and we have never fully recovered.

  • @Didy810 its name calling, your type tries to turn the word "tory" into an insult to styful the debates you know you lost in the 1980's. and the ordinary people had been mercilessly screwed by the unions with the explicit aim of benefitting their members (who were never the majority) at the expesne of others. look at the 3 day week, the rolling blackouts, the garbage piled higher then some buildings. the ordinary people suffered before thatcher, she was the one that punished those who brought it

  • @jinkedful If you choose to take the name of your party as an insult that's your problem. I find your referring to me as 'your type' much more insulting. As I said in my last post, you are never going to accept the truth. The song is about Thatcher and I stand by everything I have said.

  • @jinkedful The Conservative party was set up by the aristocrats and weren't needed until capitalism started getting challenged, therefore any comment on the way the party oppresses the lower classes is accurate.

  • @jinkedful NEVER quote John Lennon.

  • @Didy810 ... what you had for the past 18 years, you know all that endless growth and wealth, that was the result of thatchers reforms. They lasted 28 fucking years. You CANNOT blame thatchers reforms for labour's failure to properly regulate the banks. The tories were talking about the need to control public spending under howard back in 2005. They wanted powers returned to the bank of england from the FSA too. Thatcher fucked the kids in one sense, but the deficit is 100% Labour.

  • @TheJinkedful If you're dumb enough to believe that then it's amazing you're not illiterate!

  • @StockHatchRacing ... and yet i have a feeling that bar the odd feigned anger in the guardian and the odd nut on the bbc, you've never heard an economist say anything different.

  • @Didy810 Don't be stupid. If anything Thatcher stimulated the youth of Britain. Frank Turners a muppet & it's a bit rich all this preaching from a guy who went to Eton! Yeah sing a song damning a respected politician with a few swear words in - your down with the kids mate!

  • @skeletonw00t Yes, Thatcher stimulated the youth of Britain. She stimulated a culture of greedy, grasping, buy now pay later doesn't matter what anyone does so long as someone's raking it in fuckspoddery in them, and we're living with it now. And really, Thatcher's about as respected as a briefcase full of ebola virus and cat turds. Plus, your grammar is atrocious. People tend to listen to your views more if they're put better than "Frank Turners a muppet", you belligerent Tory airhead.

  • @skeletonw00t Go home grandad, you need your sleep

  • @skeletonw00t Thatchers a cunt. Frank turners a god. end of.

  • omg tune!!

    only just discovered frank! but his music is brilliant! i love his lyrics!!

  • I've only just discoved Frank Turner, but have spent the morning looking up all his songs on youtube. He's great, proper music. Gonna check out million dead now.
