    I don't care. Just wanted to be the first person to report a semi-but-not-really important world even.

    Loved and hated in equal measure in Britain.  People I know are actually celebrating right now. Very divisive figure.

    I personally find it distasteful but the intensity of the hatred for her is because of the real suffering her policies caused to many parts of the country - including cities, towns and regions that have never recovered.

    Listening to the coverage on Sky news at the moment.  Its weird hearing people like Ken Livingstone, who hated her when she was alive, droning on about how she was one of the greatest Prime Ministers they ever had.  I know they have to be tactful when someone's just died, but its really hypocritical.

    She was 'great' in the strict sense of having been an immense figure in post war history. There simply hasn't been a political leader like her since the end of World War 2. Love her or hate her she shaped Britain, and had an influence on Europe and the Cold War, that was immense.

    She was also the first woman to lead Britain which was notable in itself.

    Personally I'm ambivalent about her.

    The thing I remember most about Margaret Thatcher, was her epic role on spitting image.  That is the way I will always remember her.

    Thatcher is remembered as The Iron Lady only because she possessed completely negative traits such as persistent stubbornness and a determined refusal to listen to others.

    Every move she made was charged by negativity; she destroyed the British manufacturing industry, she hated the miners, she hated the arts, she hated the Irish Freedom Fighters and allowed them to die, she hated the English poor and did nothing at all to help them, she hated Greenpeace and environmental protectionists, she was the only European political leader who opposed a ban on the ivory trade, she had no wit and no warmth and even her own cabinet booted her out. She gave the order to blow up The Belgrano even though it was outside of the Malvinas Exclusion Zone—and was sailing AWAY from the islands! When the young Argentinean boys aboard The Belgrano had suffered a most appalling and unjust death, Thatcher gave the thumbs-up sign for the British press. 

    Iron? No. Barbaric? Yes. She hated feminists even though it was largely due to the progression of the women's movement that the British people allowed themselves to accept that a prime minister could actually be female. But because of Thatcher, there will never again be another woman in power in British politics, and rather than opening that particular door for other women, she closed it.

    Thatcher will only be fondly remembered by sentimentalists who did not suffer under her leadership, but the majority of British working people have forgotten her already, and the people of Argentina will be celebrating her death. As a matter of recorded fact, Thatcher was a terror without an atom of humanity.

    MORRISSEY.

    "Twitter set off at a pace with a thousand ‘Ding Dong the Witch is Dead’ messages only to be followed by a slew of bleeding heart liberals bemoaning the fact that people were daring to celebrate someone’s death.

    Pah! Let’s make it clear: This is a cause to celebrate, to party, to stamp the dirt down. Tomorrow we can carry on shouting and writing and working and singing and striking against the successive governments that have so clearly followed Thatcher’s Slash & Burn policies, none more so than the present lot. But for now, we can have a drink and a dance and propose a toast to the demise of someone who blighted so many people’s lives for so long.

    If we must show a little reverence and decorum at this time, then so be it. Our deepest sympathies go out to the families of all Margaret Thatcher’s victims.    "

    I love him too. He's just the right side of crazy - the side where you make too much sense and people don't like it. Not that I agree with everything he says. He's an insufferable cunt sometimes. But he's still a part of my tribe.
