The DNA of the race does not change overnight, if ever. Lady Thatcher tried to preserve everything that was good about the British and resurrect everything that was good about the British to make Britain better, stronger and richer. This, I strongly detect from the footage I see on Youtube and in her memoirs.

The cynicism and good old English sense of humour tell us so much about the forte of the British. And Britain has done almost the best she could. But her rivals also improved.

@tnakai1971jp she did. When she first came into power most workers were on strike, and Britain was called the "sick man of Europe". The problem was that people wanted the perks and tax relief of richer countries, but without working hard enough to deserve them. She saw that other governments tried to sugar-coat their policies to try and stop this and it didn't work, so she got tough and tried to force this laziness out of people - You can tell that by listening to her speak.

@123HMatty

I have been reading her famous memoir which came out shortly after her resignation. I get a strong impression that she "thought" that the elites in Britain had developed some kind of mixture of guilt for being well off and compassion for the poor obliged as a result of being born into the right class.

She appeared to have believed that it was that attitude which had allowed British workers to assume too much and managers and directors to expect less from their workers.

@tnakai1971jp the point you made is the point that people who opposed it said, that its better to pay what you can. But its important to remember that the taxation system in Britain hasn't changed for about 200 years, i think she just wanted to try and modernise it. Also its important to remember that because of her economic policy, people were (on average) earning much more, so people could afford slightly higher taxes.
