Here’s a summary for ernie to argue against
Why would I argue against it ? ……. a quick glance suggests that it’s a very fair analyses. Nicely summed up here :
Surveys showed limited support for many of Thatcher’s values. Professor Ivor Crewe’s ‘The Crusade that Failed’ noted the lack of support for Thatcher’s policies on ‘tax-and-spend’ and replacing the dependency culture with an enterprise culture. And there was greater approval for a more equal society and for social and collective provision of welfare as against Thatcher’s vision of people looking after themselves. [/i]
Why would I want to argue against that ffs ? 🙂

Come to think of it we could have Ernie’s Law as he seems to have an obsession with the woman. Mentions her at every opportunity, has an archive of photos
Shock horror – Ernie mentions Thatcher on a thread about……….about…… THATCHER !!!
Did you notice how I managed to slip in a couple of posts about Thatcher onto this thread teamhurtmore? It’s almost as if I’ve got an obsession over the woman. And I seem to have forced other people to post photos of her despite me not posting any myself……cunning or what ?
Your problem teamhurtmore has nothing at all to do with me talking about Thatcher, you would be more than happy if I sung her praises and told everyone what a great gal Maggie was. Your problem stems from the fact that I consistently and repeatedly expose the myths surrounding Thatcher for what they are – myths.
You would rather I shut up and didn’t mention the fact that Thatcher increased the UK tax burden, increased public spending, doubled unemployment, achieved no higher levels of growth than the 1970s, etc, etc.
But that’s kinda tough, because whilst people like you continue to tell lies about Thatcher, then I reserve the right to tell the truth about her 🙂
