  • <3 this musical

  • this is just the truth about maggie thatcher. she was complete evil, and no-body liked her

  • @agenttheater5 nobody liked her yet she never lost a general election and she was the longest serving PM of the twentieth century... yes of course nobody liked her

  • @GrandoNando like george bush, and mussolini, and stalin, and hitler were elected. they are still hated. time does not heal wounds.

  • @agenttheater5 well that is hardly a comparison, Hitler, Stalin and Mussolini where all Dictators who got in through use of force and violence so that argument is rather weak, however with Bush, well we all know about the Florida voting scandal so that is very debatable and during his first term Bush actually did a lot of good for the the American people. Now in regards to your first statement no Thatcher was not evil and as I have said she was voted and kept by the people so they did like her

  • @GrandoNando my apologies for expressing my opinion. and the opinion of the miners, and the thousands of people who went unemployed because of her. and the women who's rights she never supported despite being prime minister.

  • @agenttheater5 well you got it in one, it is indeed you opinion, therefore you cannot claim your opinion to be truth

  • @GrandoNando except that it is the opinion of thousands of people ho I don't know, and everyone that I do know

  • @agenttheater5 no matter how many people hold an opinion it does take it as truth! There is only need for one person to have a different opinion to form an argument. Opinion is not fact, therefore there is no right or wrong opinion. I have my opinion on Lady Thatcher and you have yours but it does not make either of them right or wrong it makes them opinions!

  • @GrandoNando BUSH IS AN IDIOT! He destroyed our country and the only ones we have to thank for that is the stupid, blind, idiotic republicans that voted for him.

  • I saw the Nat. Tour. It was amazing!

  • 10 people voted labour

  • Comment removed

  • its great to be irish and christian :D

  • 10 people are monetarists.

  • I love the huge Maggie Thatcher puppet near the end, on Broadway

  • Replace "Maggie Thatcher" with "David Cameron" and this song just got a whole lot more relevant.

  • i made my version when cameron became prime minister il update it soon x

  • @ProudToBeNerdy ...you mean any tory right? :P

  • @RainingSilence Touché. ;P

  • why cant she just die already =/ and no im not trying to offend anyone in anyway

  • We're singing this at college as part as our musical numbers haha it's so funny us 5 girls wanna sing the last bit

  • it would be the BEST if Korean People sang this altogether to their pure president, MB.

  • soooooooooooooooooooo funny

    

  • 3:06 LOL

  • just saw Billy Elliot in Toronto last week it was so great :)

  • I wasnt around for Maggie Thatchers time, Though what i hear of her, I think wishing of someones death is wrong.

  • @sweetsarah26 i really don't think you understand what she put these miners through or what they had to live with...

  • @amberalisaa but regardless of whether you agree with Thatcher or not, wishing death upon someone is never right.

  • @bjcox0911 That's some absolute ethics you're getting into. :P

  • @sweetsarah26 She practically sentenced the North of England to death.

  • @L7219 this is actually a Georgian accent

  • @xoJ3Nxo i thought it was jordie...

  • @53tgh1 geordie 

  • @glayiscool geordie or jeordie! ?_? i dont know!

  • @53tgh1 geordie :)

  • @LongLiveAndros lol!

  • I love the scottich accent!

  • me mum from wales so i love the song!!!!!!!!

  • It would be funny if Glee sang this to Sue S.

  • @LovettSweeney I...love you. you like billy elliot AND glee?!?!?!?!? you are amazing my friend

  • @LovettSweeney OMG that would be epic! Someone ought to pitch this idea to the writers of Glee!

  • Comment removed

  • best musical!

    saw it in london

    it was awwwwweeeeessssommme

  • isn't it more common to say HAPPY Christmas in the UK? jw.

  • @togruta4 Poetic licence :p 

  • @togruta4 nah/ both the same

  • I guess the American "tea party" hasn't done a parody of this song called Merry Christmas Barry Obama?

  • 2 people support Maggie Thatcher!

  • @dragdev make that 3. maggie was brilliant she turned the country around. you look what would have happened if she didnt defeat the miners, then come back with a clever remark yeh?

  • @superlalabbz that must be why everyone in this country is so happy these days. Owaitno, the social problems in Britain are just about the worst in Europe..... still, good thing the ultra-rich can still afford their central-London mansions eh?

  • @superlalabbz even though she didn't support the miners rights, or gay rights or women's rights

  • @dragdev

    you mean 7 people support maggie thatcher

    myself not included.

  • @midnight551 Which is pretty much most of the musical O_o

  • I luv this song its soooooo happy beat:)

  • heheh listening to this on christmas

  • favorite christmas song

  • i heard this on the radio today! it was soooo weird hearing it on the radio!

  • this is the best christmas song ever

  • Why isn't she dead yet?

  • @ShinRhino Only the unions hated her.

  • @senrivlin I beg to differ. Everyone I know hates her (my family were miners and millers)

  • @ShinRhino I can see why, (her policies were anti-unions), and millers and miners all are part of unions, (millers unions and miners unions).

  • @senrivlin so it's not JUST the unions. Because PEOPLE are part of unions. I'm not in a union, yet I hate her. She ruined the North. It still hasn't recovered and now we have Cameron, the Thatcherite, in to do it all again.

  • @ShinRhino Exactly. By unions, I mean not only the people that are in the union, (it's a union of workers), but supporters of those unions. You have to look at the other side that benefits, (for example, Britain is in a huge deficit. In my opinion, (and you have a complete right to your opinion; I understand why unions would be upset), I think Cameron is doing the right thing right now. It hurts right now, but if you ever want to follow in your familys footseps, it won't be as bad for you.

  • @senrivlin You're telling me it won't be as bad for me 2 weeks before I'm forced out of a job onto the dole again because the government overspent. This time will be just as bad, but it won't be the "Higher Class" south that suffers, once again it will be the "Lower Class" still partly industrialised North that will suffer the largest amount of the cuts.

    FYI I love to debate. I am so glad everyone has their own opinion, my life would be far too boring otherwise, are you on twitter?

  • @ShinRhino They're doing this for the future, though. For example, if you have a pile of papers stacking up on your counter and you don't clean it up because it will be hard and cost time, you'll never clean it. But if you do, it won't be a problem anymore.

  • @senrivlin It's not ACTUALLY that simple though. It's not just that it'll cost a lot, it's also the HUMAN cost of what you are doing now. In my view it isn't fair of the government to say to me "we're kicking you out of a job now, to save ...'s job in 3 years" - There are tough choices to make, but why not ACTUALLY recoup the tax that is owed by big business and tax dodging millionaires? Why target the Working Class and Students?

  • @ShinRhino But that's not the case. It's equal and, to some people, equal means unfair because you need to tax the working class less.

  • @senrivlin But they don't tax less because the tax system in this country is a mess. As says the £900 rebate I got for paying too much. Which will be a nice present, that's for sure. How can you defend them taxing so much on the lower classes, yet letting, say Vodafone, get away with not paying £6billion in tax! I doubt they get £6billion tax a year from the working classes. Or even the middle classes.

  • @ShinRhino Why tax the working class? Because you're the ones who can't fight back.

  • @tikifreakazoid anyone who gets money in the UK should be taxed, who gives a shit if ur russian or muslim or christian or black, i dont give a shit and neither does anyone else, people should be treated equally in britian, britians anti racism laws are so extreme we are nearly being racist to ourselves

  • We'll overthrow the capitalist class sooner or later.

  • oh i love this so much..iim obsesssd after seeing this i week ago... I NEED TO MEET CESAR

  • I think show tunes attract a certain niche of people. These people normally don't inter lap with trolls, thank god.

  • Such a great song!

  • I feel so sorry for Margaret-hated for doing what she believed was the right thing.

  • Comment removed

  • @Zwagzord "hated for doing what she believed was the right thing."

    So was Hitler

  • @gaspode18 Shuold we hate people for doing what they believe to be right? How do we know than in 1000 years the things we are doing today won't be considered evil?

  • Well, I think it's pretty safe to assume that Hitler should be.

    Maggie T? Ask the children of a miner. Or a steelworker. Or a shipbuilder - all communities (NOT just industries) destroyed by her and her government.

  • She made mistakes, yes, but I don't think she deserves her reputation and she was most certainly NOT evil.

  • You're entitled to your opinion - Even if it is different to mine. I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree.

  • Not evil??

    What that evil cow done to the miners and working class FFS!!

    Bitch should have went at Brighton

  • krdundee- Hitler was evil, yes. Because he KILLED people. Margaret was wrong and people lost their jobs but noone dies. Can you really call that evil?

  • @ Zwagzord

    Yes. Yes you can.

  • In retrospect, the true human cost of the miners' strike was not always shown. But nevertheless Margaret Thatcher did the right thing. With too powerful unions. nothing works. Essential services get disrupted and innocent people get caught up in the charade. Not to mention the negative impression it gives to foreign visitors. Recently, even BA staff don't even dare to wear their uniforms when they leave the airport because of the public backlash over the proposed 12-day walkout during Christmas.

  • haha. It's Christmas Day today.

  • this has to be the best musical i have seen i want to go again i absolutely love it xxxx
