To be fair, it does have 'APT' written on the front of it.
Which is always a clue.

That's Michael Heseltine. Is he dead too? And was he really a lady?
I don't know if my inability to identify a train is a good or a bad thing. 🙂
Anyway, as you were...

Remember - wherever she is, she's always watching. 😉
I hope they cut the head off, just in case.
Also it says APT on the picture.
(APT is a long and messy story but at the end of the day it was an experimental design pushed into use too fast, and canned mostly because of negative perception rather than reality, rather than being allowed to complete its development. But a lot of the tech went on to be succesful, and current tilting trains in the UK are no faster.
blair reckons she inspired him !!- hope he doesn't take as long to croak
satans butt plug
Big Eck says£10,000,000 buys a few more YES votes
And a few more petrol bombs too, I'd imagine...

plays the assist - see i am lefty so a giver
EDIT: Well that went well - like my policies it sounded good in theory but it just does not work in reality
One thousand
Well she did at least inspire a huge thread on here about herself!
I'm concerned that holding her funeral in such a place could create problems, not just for all the businesses in that are which will be disrupted, but because of the possibility of any protest becoming violent. Wouldn't it have been better to hold it somewhere a lot quieter and easier to police?
Aren't the current Pendelino trains an engineering descendent of the APT?
Stop being so bloody neutral junkyard!
1003!
oh.

Been on nights so lots of catching up on this thread. Heard and read lots more about her in last few days of course.
The bit that stood out for me was the soundbite from sometime after she left no 10 where she talks about how every politician can understand that one might be stabbed in the back, but she couldn't get over or forgive how it happened to her.
For me that brought it all home that irrespective of her policies (which as part of the stupid and impertinent lefty club I of course mostly didn't agree with), she was driven beyond all common sense. No doubt that the 150 or so Conservative MP's in less than safe seats and her own cabinet were right to get her out before she lost them the next election and still she couldn't see how she had brought this ousting upon herself. We don't need political changelings like Blair, Clegg and Cameron, but we really don't need rigid and uncompromising ones either.
..... she talks about how every politician can understand that one might be stabbed in the back, but she couldn't get over or forgive how it happened to her.
Well that is something she had in common with Ted Heath then. He too couldn't get over or forgive how she stabbed him in the back.
But I'm surprised to hear that she was surprised.
After all, I would have expected that she, of all people, would have been fully aware of just how cold and ruthless Tory politicians can be.
The only tears she is known to have shed were ones of self pity.
that odious son --- embodies all her instincts and attributes-- selfishness, arrogance, conceit, and more bad habits than a coprophillic priest.
Do mean you don't like him then?
they say time is a great healer-- well this proves that its not the case.....the outpouring of hate towards her and her ilk is necessary

All very well if correct and informed, but I've seen and heard her criticised for planning to nuke Bueonos Aries invading Iraq, causing the ERM crash and a whole host of other bollox that Lefties love to spiel and blame anyone for with no basis in fact. Half those dancing in the streets were not even born during the good bit of her influence.
Baying 'Thatcher Thatcher Thatcher Dead Dead Dead,' is just crass and certainly not the sort of behaviour a fair society would wish to tolerate.

Well, i've seen and heard her praised for curing cancer, inventing the internet and having a great pair of baps and a whole host of other etc. etc.
Though the baps bit might be true

Unfortunately, we don't have a fair society.
Tum ti tum...
Half those dancing in the streets were not even born during the good bit of her influence.
That may be true, together with the other half eulogising her not even being born during her influence.
Which "good bit" was that? The leaving of Downing Street?
'Thatcher Thatcher Thatcher Dead Dead Dead,'
that's pretty catchy actually.. 😀
I lived and suffered through the Thatcher era, and I'm celebrating the fact that the Great Leveller finally caught up with her.
Half those dancing in the streets were not even born during the good bit of her influence.
So you think Britain is no longer influenced by that "unique and towering figure" ?
Well that's very much a minority point of view - both the Government and HM Opposition's official position is that her legacy lives on.
And I think it is probably fair to say that even the lives of young people today have been affected by her premiership.
Let's not forget the role (s) played by her colleagues in the cabinet. Messrs Howe, Lawson, Major and lamont. Mr Tebbit, Mr Fowler, Mr Parkinson, Mr Hurd Mr Redwood. Mr Whitelaw, Mr Heseltine, Mr Clarke Mrs Currie, Mr Pym. I could go on.. they're all to blame along with the conservative party financiers

So we can look forward to another 14 threads like this one then, gordimhor? 😉
Can we make it 13? Hesaltine looks exactly like my granddad, so he can't be all bad.

Very true. And I also like to remember the responsibility of those who voted Conservative, without them none of it would have been possible.
Glenda does well, Bercow is cool
Is Glenda drunk there or is that her normal mannerisms?....frightening if that gets to vote on policy!
that
Classy as ever.
frightening if that gets to vote on policy!
As opposed to the baying sycophantic amoebas (or in my words ****in tory ****stains) on the opposite bench?, give me 650 "Glenda Jacksons" to populate the house of commons and i'll give you a fair and just society
Is Glenda drunk there or is that her normal mannerisms?....frightening if that gets to vote on policy!
Yeahh, her mannerisms are the relevant 🙄
Did you find it difficult to understand?
Hopefully there will be no more threads like this, all our politicians from now on will be honest, intelligent and compassionate, they will be voted for by a pub lic who like and respect them and we will all be slim biking wonder kids riding dry trails:-)

We don't have a fair society. She had a major hand in how the people of this country behave.
We don't have a fair society.
We don't have a society, there is no such thing, only individuals.
Scotland requested that they be allowed to do the honors, specifically because they wished to ensure that Thatcher had actually died. Plans for the Scottish funeral involved a 21 cannon salute carried out by the artillery detachment of the Black Watch. Rather than use blanks, the Black Watch would fire live high explosive shells directly into Thatcher's coffin. The coffin's remains would then be gleefully urinated upon by drunken members of the Scottish public. Most Scots feel that this would be an appropriately solemn farewell to the dictator they so adore.The way in which Thatcher’s corpse will be disposed has not yet been decided. A whitepaper published in Science in 2009 discussed the viability of a number of options. On cremation, it stated that the corpse of a lich is notoriously difficult to burn, and attempting to burn the body of the arch-lich herself would undoubtedly result in failure. Burial was also considered, but the estimated cost to prevent the inevitable haunting of the area surrounding the burial site was deemed to be too high. The subject would need to be buried below a bloodstone 2.5km in diameter, which itself would need to be sealed via sacrificing the lives of 250 union members atop the aforementioned stone. Experts in the field are currently looking towards recent advancements in nuclear waste storage, and 2.5% of the UK budget is put aside annually for ongoing research and development into the potential solutions to Thatcher Storage.
On uncyclopedia...I lol'd.
Hmmm... My respect for Glenda Jackson has just increased massively.
Deviant, are you from the 1970s?
Just seen it on the news. Agree with Coyote about Glenda Jackson. At least she is stopping the specially convened session of parliament sounding like a 7 hour love in.
