The influence she had on this country was a tragedy. You have the right words, just in the wrong order.

I was trying not to be disrespectful. Truth be told I can see myself rolling my eyes at the false tributes that are gonna be on TV.

..love her or hate her, she certainly made an impact and people have their own opinions of whether she was a great PM or not such a great one..but nothing can be changed and she's dead now so what's the point in disagreeing over any of it....

Sad news,thoughts with her family.

87 years old
a good run

She may be dead but her legacy lives on, Thatcherism isn't dead and thus there's no reason to celebrate.

I detest the bitch but my thoughts are with her family. RIP.

Even if she did make some mistakes, so have other politicians and I daresay there are more to come who will also generate mixed/negative views. Just take a look at the current bastards we have running this nation, making a complete mess of the benefits system and all.

RIP. :(

Yes Jack
and Blairism

Same here! She was a scary lady at times, but still, an icon and a Trail Blazer. May she rest in peace. And my condoleances to Great Britain.

RIP...perhaps its too soon to truly evaluate her legacy. Much hatred will follow. the millions of miners will be the loudest detractors, as will the NHS and may other commmunities destroyed. she also made the rich infinitely richer and the poor, poorer, she closed all the coal mines and lost 1000 years of coal and jobs..that was a disaster that UK will NEVER recover from. she privatised all the worng things such as the utilities, gas, water, electricity etc which are basically monopolies, who overcharge and enslave the poor for decades to come. how many have died of cold due to this? thousands. another sad legacy. she didnt seem to do so much for small businesses as some claimed. she also brought in VAT which crippled small businesses ? very odd.

.On the other hand, look at the utter disaster labour were? look at the state of the UK in 1970s under labour..she also told europe to F off and righly so....in fact the riots over poll taxes when the bill was only £70, whereas under labour its up to £2000+
labour failed hopelessly to counter her arguments, although kinnock was racially abused by the horrific right wing press.

In the meantime respect and love to her family and farewell to a complex somewhat frightening lady

"Ding-Dong! The Witch Is Dead"

:idc:

Margaret Thacher was a great prime minister. R.I.P.

You could show a bit more respect for this ordeal.

Typical

Death doesn't make someone immune to criticism, even in Britain - the world capital of professional grief.

Yes workers in all areas of British industry have her to thank for the decline in the UK.
£70 each adult in the household don't forget... and what was the average weekly wage then?...
I agree with your last point totally.

Ordeal? an old lady passed away redway....Anyone who feels her politics were not in the interests of the UK are not suddenly going to change their mind are they?

"Which old Witch? The Wicked Witch! Ding Dong! The Wicked Witch is dead."

Your Post

Nothing is changing
She left her job in 1990

A life lived fully. Her detractors can only wish to be half as relevant to world history.

unlike the queen and royal family, she actually had to earn her place and her policies resonated with her country. She was truly the PEOPLE's Queen.

She EARNED her place in history, unlike the royal family.

I feel for her family, but that's it, I did not like the woman.

She's getting some glowing reviews on the News channel

I have no problem with people criticisng her work even if she is dead, but throwing around terms such as 'wicked old witch' is way too far. I'd rather people criticise her work, not her. At least not like that.
I never said they will (even I don't think she did a particularly good job). What I was against was Omah, as per usual, slinging around insults at people, regardless of how sensitive that context may be.

:o that she's dead or :o at the ludicrous claim that she was a great prime minister for us? :laugh:
