Compare Britain 1979 to Britain 1989. She did what she thought was right, not what she thought was popular.

[this shouldnt be in the bike forum]

I just did unemployment for comparison for those years

Wrong forum, this one’s for bikes and ridin’ bikes adn questions and about 29ers.

The other forum’s for lauding praise on dead prime ministers.

My hero 🙂

What’s unemployment got to do with it, just shows you how many useless folk were employed in over bloated public sector / nationalised industries .

no no.. I quite agree..

I owe her a huge debt of thanks, the late eighties and early 90s were a great time to come of age..
I didn’t have to get a job cos there weren’t any, no-one my age had any hope, we’d been raised to despise authority and some of the best parties in the whole history of partying were happening up and down the country every weekend..

Law and order were pretty much something that happened to other people, the youht were rebelling and life was magic

And now the parties are gonna break out like a rash all over again..

Thanks Fatcha, even in your death you are looking out for us.. 😀

Go into the factories section of 28dayslater and you can view the remnants of those rubbish, under funded and badly managed British companies.

without her the specials and UB40 wouldve struggled for inspiration for some of their greatest hits

Do we really need 2 threads for this? Both sides of the fence are airing their views on the other thread.

Thanks? For what! For nothing!

I’d like to thank her for helping to rapidly bring down a hated military government on it’s last legs in Argentina, which was an absolutely vital element in the collapse of all the brutal Washington-backed military dictatorships throughout Latin America.

And which paved the way for the final ditching of free-market neoliberalism in Latin America and its replacement with people-orientated socialist alternatives.

Thank you Maggie and may God bless you.
