23 - what a ridiculous thing to say... that people are being sexist because they are calling her a woman?!
that is what she is - first and foremost - people are not just their jobs you know!

i woudl also add you are the one that brought up the fact that she was a woman...

and you would not be complaining if we called a male politician a 'man'...

[ummmm]

Loads, probably, micmak!

[micmak]

Bed time for me will look in tomorrow to see how it goes. Night night.♥

I thought she was a bitch personally.

[joko]

it is the same with any politician and any party

people like the ones that benefit or agree with them, and dislike the ones that inconvenience or go against them

same in all walks of life really...

the people who like maggie are simply the ones who were not adversely affect by her policies...
problem is a great many people were terribly affected by them...so its a bit hard for the ones that suffered to look past that and compliment her on her manners, poise and leadership skills...

its like asking people to give hitler a break and see his good side because he was hoot a dinner parties...

[Teddy_boy]

Joko hardly news that people like politicians that benefit them is it?Why else would you vote for someone?What an utterly obvious thing to say.

[joko]

well yes... but thats not what i said teddy

im not talking about votes - and talking about the aftermath of her run... some people voted for her - yet now hate her guts... because she negatively affected their lives...

people are arguing on here and seem to expect others to feel the same way they do... but as i said it very easy to respect and admire someone if you have no reason not to isnt it...

[vodkancoke]

I like her, I wouldn't begrudge her a state funeral. I'd rather my taxes went on that than the stupid sodding tram malarky we are having to fork out for up here!

[Teddy_boy]

I didnt vote for her but id gladly pull the trigger on a firing squad for her.Thats as clear as i can make it.

[ummmm]

She's an old lady Teddy....!!!

I find the talk of killing and happily watching an old lady die...quite disturbing.

Shameful,even...

[Teddy_boy]

Harold shipman was a nice old man too.A really nice old doctor apparently.

[ummmm]

Okay....loving your comparison!!!

Oh dear...

Night night

[vodkancoke]

How on earth can you justify comparing Maggie Thatcher with Harold Shipman??

[Teddy_boy]

And lets not forget the millions her useless son mark made through arms deals she signed.The only jobs she created were jobs for the boys.

[Teddy_boy]

Sorry thatcher ruined more lives and a country and id imagine more pensioners died from hypothermia during her reign of power than were killed by Harold shipman.So i agree she was probably worse than him.Thanks for correcting me.

[MarkRae]

What are you apologising for...?

[Teddy_boy]

Nothing, youve obviously taken it out of context.

[MarkRae]

No, it was the fact that you make a good point, yet begin it with the word "Sorry". Are you ashamed of what you posted? Are you apologising for having an opinion of your own? Who are you actually saying sorry to...?
