  • @TheKenfig She had right to be arrogant - Neil Kinnock was a laughing stock. She left Downing Street in 1990 with the knowledge that, thanks to her, Britain was a better place than it was in 1979. Thatcher is the only PM to be honoured with a statue in the House of Commons whilst still alive - a testament to her legacy. No socialist PM can ever rightfully be as proud of themselves as she can.

  • @OfMiceandTransmen You wrote: "As for the poll tax, that was scrapped when she realised how strongly everyone felt about it". You need to read up on your history. The poll tax was still in place when she left office and wasn't scrapped until April 1991 largely at the insistence of Michael Heseltine and the Council Tax was brought in. Thatcher left office still stubbornly clinging to the poll tax - it was one of the reasons for her demise.

  • 'THAT WOMAN' HAH

  • Gotta Love Thatcher!. Cant wait to see the Iron Lady!

  • LOOK UP NIGEL FARAGE, HE HAS BALLS AND SPEAKS THE TRUTH. VOTE AND JOIN UKIP !!!

  • Neil kinnocks working class respect for women, stopped him from truly going for the Jugular with her.. Wish That Healey would have been the leader and then she would have been ,  please excuse the language, pissing her pants at the dispatch box!

    Healey the best leader we never had!

  • Mrs Thatcher never knew that Neil Kinnock would be the classic 'socialist' European Unionist traitor politician making £millions from our taxes via the hopelesly corrupt and criminal led European Union project. Thanks to Thatcher, Heath and various other Tory dimwits selling our country down the river to EEC membership we're now well embroiled with the scumbag led European Union project that the EEC has now become. Shame on them all !!!!!

  • @OfMiceandTransmen Tory Sun propaganda used to brainwash susceptible people into believing it. Supporters of Hitler said groups needed 'sorting out' if I remember. Inflation ?.Glib excuse : inflation was always transient and under Thatcher it was 18% in 1980 after it had been down to 8% in 1978 ; AND it increased 1984 / 85 after falling temporarily and went up again steadily to almost 10% by 1990 ; all of which are far higher than it has been this last 10 years.She scrapped PT cos she was scared

  • @TheKenfig She made a lot of unpopular, but necessary decisions. She destroyed the miners because she HAD TO. They and the trade unions were causing civil unrest with their constant strikes, and thus had to be sorted out. She focused on tackling inflation at the expense of full employment, but the end result was that the GDP increased for all. As for the poll tax, that was scrapped when she realised how strongly everyone felt about it.

  • @OfMiceandTransmen Rubbish, I remember unemployment being higher than it is now with her ; it was over 3 million. Then she destroyed the miners and their proud communities built on years of blood,sweat and tears, made the war in the Falklands through being arrogant and ignoring defence advice THEN having the cheek to capitalise on the propaganda of war and win a second election. Then she brought civil unrest with the outrageous poll tax and even her party thought her a liability. Tyrant despot
