Thatcher Dies

[flowwolf]

Thing is I kind of understand the left wing anger at Maggie Thatcher. You see they have never had a left wing socialist ~P.M who did anything of note except drop the country even deeper in the financial shit. Atlee was a dreamer who's dream has turned into a nightmare , and all the the rest have been abject failures , Sunny Jim your darling Harold , and Blair the undercover Tory ect.

Yes if I was a lefty I would be sore and bereft of hope too.

So he's a wit then?

Well he is kind of funny , dont you agree ? but well spotted Captain there was a flaw in the insult .

[flowwolf]

Happy to leave the humour to you guys !!

lol lol lol lol

No you carry on I'm poised with note book and pen ready to plagiarize your every mouth watering comic posting.

Going to a public funeral for a fight. !!

[Deucalion]

The Tories on here would have us believe they are all rich, hard working, moral, and now even ass kicking street brawlers !!

However, in my humble opinion and in my experience, one thing defines the vast majority of Tories.

lol lol

Everyone's moaning about the cost of the funeral but I've heard that the majority of that has been spent on a wurtzide boron nitride (the hardest substance in the world) lined coffin, so that when her corpse INEVITABLY reanimates we should be safe.

Money well spent, I say

Resorting to childish photoshop pictures and awarding your self a over the top amount of laughing emoticons neither makes you look clever or mature. you may just aswell wear a badge saying " I'm a bit thick but I can lift things "

Fvck me, there really were no fencesitters with Maggie, were there?

Hated, adored but never ignored, that's for sure. Tbh I'm thinking there will be some trouble today, but not as much as some expect.

Does anyone remember when the Ayatollah Khomeini (sp?) died? So grief stricken were the mourners that they pulled the body out of the coffin and sort of pulled it about a bit (you can see it on youtube if you can be arsed).

I reckon all these folks going there to 'pay their respects' are secretly hoping for something like this to happen

How can you show respect for someone who had none for others

Still three terms of office means a hell of a lot of people thought different to you. She showed no respect for terorrism I'll give you that.

I'm sure you're right, but not as much as the bloke I know that's taken the day off to watch it on telly

Erm that's me

[flowwolf]

whick PM did?

Tony Blair. It was through his under the counter dealing at the so called Good Friday agreement that we now have not one but two I.R.A terrorists masquerading as M.P's . Could you ever have seen Mr's Thatcher standing for that ?

So you'd prefer war to peace?

Terrorists, like Mandela, maybe not, but despotic dictators were all the rage in Maggie's day.

Anyway, hope the funeral passes without incident, when all said and done this is still someone's dead mother, and nobody deserves to have to witness their parent's funeral being disrupted, regardless of what you think of the deceased or her offspring.

[Bellend Sebastian]

Erm that's me

Good Lord.

Does it seem to be going well so far? Assuming it's started, that is

[flowwolf]

So you prefer allowing someone to use violence to achieve their political ends ?

As long as it stopped bombs going off and people getting shot on a regular basis...jaw-jaw is better than war-war.

Thanks Captain that is the most well ballanced post on this subject yet.

When the entity responsible for that is a nation-state, you have the very textbook definition of warfare. Something which all of humanity seems to be pretty fond of. Just that the winners tend to be painted in a better light than the losers.

Yeah, there's a time and a place. Today and at the funeral itself is neither the time nor the place.

Yes we are having tea and cakes and indulging in reminiscence of the days when Lady T put the Great back into Britain. Despite what the great unwashed Left think, millions will mourn her passing and it must get right up their trotsky noses.

Sorry but are you equating a democratically elected government that we have with two men who murdered their way to a barganing table with the threat of going back to murdering unless they got what they wanted ?

If so what is the point of democracy ?
