[A festival to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Margaret Thatcher's birth is due to be held in her home town later this year. The former Conservative prime minister was born in Grantham, Lincolnshire, in 1925 and died in April 2013, aged 87. South Kesteven District Council is planning a programme of events during the week of 13 October. A council meeting earlier heard ideas being suggested for the festival, including themed beers with names such as Iron Lady or Grantham Lass, which would "relate to the Thatcher experience". According to the Local Democracy Reporting Service, details of the programme are still being developed, with little yet confirmed about what will be included in the celebrations. Council leader Ashley Baxter indicated the event could be called "The Festival of Thatcher".] Maybe a High Fence is needed to keep trouble makers out, Last edited by arista; Yesterday at 07:31 PM. |

Thatcher the milk snatcher. To say the very least. Horrible heartless woman.

I doubt I'd have supported her.
She went way too far on workers rights. Plus what she did to the NHS making hospitals trusts. Then the privatisation con. Then her terrible poll tax was despicable. However she was a strong leader, she did win 3 elections, although 2 more gifted to her by split opposition voting. There were good things she did however and she actually was one of the minds as to being an architect of the EU single market. Were she around today, as she was when PM, she'd have wiped the floor with all the current leaders of ALL Parties.. She'd have seen off Farage's Reform mob too.. She's also to be fair, the longest post war Prime Minister as well. Love or hate her, a festival or other commemoration is in order I'd say. |

She got rid of the cold war, she was responsible for the berlin wall coming down. She created peace in europe.
