It's not a scientific article.

she never lost an election? :)

You can fool some people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time... :devil:

Three times running? She wasn't a great PM but she wasn't the worst either...she had high and low points. At least she had her own mind.

Was still ousted from power and had second worst approval rating of any post-war Prime Minister though..

That was bound to happen at some point anyway.

She is one of the worst, she did have her own mind , she did what she regardless of whether it was in the best interests of the country... or not.

That's all subjective; if you think she ran this country into the ground, fine. But I disagree (and there are plenty who'd back me up on that). You have to allow for different tastes.

It is, I could find much more evidence to prove my perspective but...Yep.

by a share of the vote below the majority in a system that's low in turnout anyway

Well if the likes of Livia/Shaun can think otherwise, I very much doubt that...

:conf: what have livia and shaun to do with this?

I value their points of view a lot and if they don't think she was such a bad PM then I'd much rather take that side. That would mean that you can't prove she was anything and it really is just a matter of opinion.

Still won every single one.

Oh, if all you're interested in is opinion that's fine, I prefer facts personally.

I find it a tad rich coming from you that for once you're actually in favour of facts rather than opinion.

Yes but it doesn't mean she was loved by the nation when she, like every other prime minister, was voted in by under 30% of it

Enough to keep the Nutters at bay.

Do you, why's that then?

But Boris and Osborne are invited surely? ;)

Would you not rather do some research for yourself and form your own opinions on the subject? you have been posting an awful lot for someone who judging by your post's doesnt know too much her or her time as PM.

Actually I have researched the issue a lot and still have my views. I was just using that post to support them somewhat and I've said countless times that I wasn't even a fan of her policies.

That bit was to kizzy, who believes her opinions are fact.

Why not just say you had researched it a lot then rather than post members names saying that they think something so you would rather take that side...seems a strange thing to do to me instead of posting your own views?

You said you'd rather support Thatcher because of Shaun and Livia's opinion on the matter because you value their opinion?

Got to disagree about kizzy. I don't see how she's presenting her opinion as fact. :conf:
