Who brought Blair and the war with Iraq into the thread?
That's a whole different argument, too ?
Re the Falklands - Thatcher let the Islands be invaded ..... conflict could be have been avoided, or at least deferred, but Thatcher wanted a war to boost her popularity. That's a whole different arguement, too.
Meanwhile, this Tory government's obfuscation and vacillation continue while the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Expect more lies, deals and smokescreens in the coming weeks.
