Blair was a lying muppet, We went to war in iraq based on lies, the reall reason he left early was it was better than being booted out. major was a Puppet bought in when Thatcher was booted out, he didn't last long.

But going back to thatcher, What a woman she was the only woman who had enough balls to say something and stick by it, lets look at what she achieved, She dominated world stage politics bringing the states the UK and the USSR together, she oversaw the coming down of the berlin wall, and the withdrawral of the russians from the eastern parts of Europe, More than half of europe gained their freedom from the USSR which then ceased to exist.

The Iranian Embassy Hostages, in london, She sent in the SAS and it was shown Live on British TV, This woman was not for messing and her biggist challenge which she did was the falklands war, right over the other side of the world, we sent our navy and our soldiers to take back what is bristish soil.

Those were the wonder years, which britain excelled on the world stage, we didn't negotiate with Terrorist, Now unfortunately we invite them over to stay.

I've got a hell of a lot of respect for old Maggie, she didn't stand for no Poop, and when the going gets tough, she was there in the thick of it.

Even the Queen as stated that when she passes away (She's over 80 now) she will get a state funeral, No other Prime minister apart from Churchill has deserved such an honour.

So far we've hadn 11 years of a party which thinks "How can i get more money from the taxpayers!" They have done nothing of significent in the 11 years of being in power except maing us poorer, and themselves richer.

Gordon Brown kept on begging Blair to let him become Prime Minister, when Blair was Prime Minister, Blair decided to quit as he could make more money talking Shit than being a prime minister so Brown got his Chance.

There should of been an election, so the british people could chose a new leader but their wasn't, Instead Brown elected himself and we've got him for another 2 years, I tell you in the UK Robert Mugabe is more popular

Hopefully soon the British electorate will decide that we'll have no more lying, theives, who are so corupt its unreal.

Can't wait for that day to happen



Thatcher and Gorbachev at Ronald Reagans Funeral.

The three of them where such friends that they managed to sustain Peace around the globe whilst they were in power. She also with reagan asked Gorbachev to scrap comunnisim. One great feat was the Berlin wall coming down, and the end of the Cold war in europe.

Can we say the same for the States, UK and Russia now???

i can not stand back and let people give praise to Thatcher.
What she did to the miners was a disgrace.

The UK Miners' Strike was major industrial action affecting the British coal industry. It was a defining moment in British industrial relations, and its defeat significantly weakened the British trades union movement. It was also seen as a major political and ideological victory for Margaret Thatcher and the Conservative Party.

The strike became a symbolic struggle, since the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) was one of the strongest in the country, viewed by many, including Conservatives in power, as having brought down the Heath government in its 1974 strike. The strike ended with the miners' defeat and the Thatcher government able to consolidate its free market programme. The political power of the NUM was broken permanently. The dispute exposed deep divisions in British society and caused considerable bitterness, especially in Northern England and in South Wales. Ten deaths resulted from events around the strike. This included 6 picketers, 3 children searching for coal and a taxi driver (David Wilkie).[1]

I suppose that was one of her greatest moments as well ?

Thatcher the milk snatcher - remember that ???
She done nothing for this country and as for the Sending in the SAS - wow wee,she proberly did nothing but sit back and let the police chiefs run the show and then jump in the spotlight when it was over.

Russia's economy is collapsing while their natural resources are depleted. The UK seems to be a totalitarian regime in disguise, and the United States government is being run by the banks and turning communist (I have a stake in GM!!!).

I'd say we all need to light a fat one and rethink things.
