Just Watching Thatcher A Very British Revolution On Bbc4

[ToraToraTora]

wonderful, just how lucky we were at the time, even you 5C types she saved though I'd never expect you to realise it. Forgive them Mags for they know not what they do.
Wish we had her today. Poltroons do your worst, a ton of you is not worth an ounce of her.

Thanks Tony. BTW, that wouldn't be VOse would it? Anyway, off to bed.

Tonyav,
I believe that is the only political broadcast the opposition parties will need to put out at the next election, though Johnson will be history well before then.

[tonyav]

though Johnson will be history well before then.

I hope so, FatticusInch.

TONY, yes it's on the iPlayer but only for another week.

[tonyav]

Righto, thanks THECORBYLOON.

It's on a 24/7 loop at 'chez ttt' :-J

10cs, 00:15, yes the medicine was harsh and the patient got worse before getting better. Decades of Marxism ensured that. TGL stayed the course and dragged us up by the bootstraps.

People actually held street parties when she died.
Wonder if Boris would have noticed if had been about.

Part 5 is being repeated daily. It’s uncanny how many anecdotes, recollections and actual events from that era are being revisited currently in the Palace of Westminster.

Gulliver, I detested Mrs Thatcher at the time (put it down to left wing indoctrination from childhood and on-going ignorance until I grew up) but don't know anyone who had a street party when she died. I guess I just mix in more gracious circles than you.

[Bobbisox1]

We walk that parallel Naomi, I saw no street parties either, si

[gulliver1]

The song "Ding Dong The Witch is Dead "
Topped the hit parade the day after she died.
....Thats how much she was hated,,and quite rightly.

[ToraToraTora]

when a homunculus like gulliver is insulting that's a compliment to her greatness. Cheers gully.

[naomi24]

As the result of an online campaign by her critics the song reached number 2. Graceless bunch devoid of dignity, but no more than expected.

Neither did Boris . Where you live is the area where they were held. Take those blinkers off . You need kicking into touch yourself.

[Bobbisox1]

As much as can detest anyone , I could never ‘rejoice’ in their death like those morons did , it was sick!

[ToraToraTora]

bobs, fret not, she would have loved it, she would know she hurt their gutless ambitions to such an extent. She dragged this country kicking and screaming away from descending into an outpost of the Soviet union. Even those that hate her benefited, if only they could remove the scowling veil from their eyes.

// Even those that hate her benefited//

I wonder how many of them bought their council houses for a lot less than market price and now, mortgage free, own valuable properties and are happily frittering what would have been their rent in the boozer and Benidorm?
