I had a date today. In my lunch hour as bizarre as it sounds and in Budgens car park. I turned up and was hesitant of this lady as she didnt look too great in her pics. Fuck me was i wrong, simply stunning in person, anyway halfway through this date i get a text saying the c*nt is dead. Im telling you, today is as close to perfect as ill get. That was a date to end all dates. Rot In Pain you detestable fucking bitch.

[Redmaj]

Baffeling that she was in power for so many years

Errr, Cameron is in power now FFS, and he's facking worse/just as bad.

[MHLC]

''And if anyone is inclined to remind me that one should not speak ill of the dead, let me remind them that she had nothing good to say about us while she was alive.''

Brilliant article.

Rot in hell, Maggie.

Unions and the fabric of society were killed by the right to buy, not! By beating the miners. The ideal of unity is not just an industry ideal, it's a community ideal as well. Something, that the hag battered to a rotten mess.

Her legacy will be one of everyman for himself, loadsa money, it's all about me me and me and fuck you.



 

I come here not to flail thatcher, but to pity her..... who after all would like to take the mantle of despot of society, let alone industry.

Brilliant this thread. Get on Thomo, best ever. I didn't know this was about Maggie till the other day. Boss stuff.

[B0151?]

Errr, Cameron is in power now FFS, and he's facking worse/just as bad.

Sadly it's not even about Cameron. She lives on through them all now.

[CHOPPER]

Who are them?

Started dogging now have you.

[Sir Harvest Fields]

Was hoping to see you there mate. Its a strange thing to explain but it was a great date

[Twelfth Man]

Who are them?

Pretty much the whole political class in western Europe and most of the emerging economies. 

[archie]

Expect even he'll turn her away. Won't want her privatising their fuel supply.

I'm getting a little annoyed with the BBC - maybe I'm just missing them, but not seeing anything but tributes from them on twitter so far. Watched a couple of minutes of ITV News and they went to Liverpool and interviewed a few others who hated her. Same on 5Live on my way home, just tributes, no interviews with anyone who had a bad word for her.

So everyone then?

[Twelfth Man]

So everyone then?

In terms of those in power yeah. Even the so-called Left have adopted her language and views on the economy. The real victory is when we overthrow her 'market is god' ideology. I thought it would happen with the financial breakdown, instead its business as usual.

[MrGrumpy]

Hopefully Norman Bettison and Kelvin McKenzie are not far behind.

Throw them in to the ground with the witch.

[John C]

Always wanted her to die down a coal mine (no other casualties) but realistically the odds were a bit against that.

She hated millions of British people. It's no surprise that they hated her back. There was nothing decent or magnanimous about her. She vilified her opponents and luxuriated in their defeat. She had a narrow set of dogmatic beliefs that she acquired as a young woman and clung to them rigidly through the whole of her life, never learning anything new, never showing any curiosity about how people lived. It's no surprise that she almost tore the country apart and left bitter divisions which even now haven't properly healed. She also left a poisonous ideological legacy which says the free market can solve all our social and economic problems and that anything which restrains it is evil. It's why we're still fucked. It's why the rich and the privileged few are as entrenched as ever.

I'm glad she's dead.

Lovely yorky mate, lovely.
I propose that's read out at her funeral by the ceremonial Vicar.

[Sir Harvest Fields]

So if she has a state funeral is it a day off? Ill happily drink the day away and party.

[Rome-77]

anyone think her funeral could turn into some kind of mass demo

The Alternative Eulogy to Thatcher: Dead in Body, Alive in Spirit

We all dance to Thatcherism. Idealistically I would like to think I don't, but I do, and I'm more left wing than most.

Her 'ripple in the pond' or more to the point 'from across the pond' is as pertinent today, as it was 30 years ago. Bankers making millions, the common man shafted by the me me society....Sound familiar?.....Loadsa money!.... Harry Enfield was never more right by his political satire now than he was then.

Thatcher didn't bring Thatcherism to this country, she brought the American dream to this country.

 

Love thy neighbour?...... more like 'Have more than thy neighbour'

Where is Carlos in all this merriment?

[24/7]

Where is Carlos in all this merriment?

He proved to be just that little bit too "qiqabal".

[RojoLeón]

Where is Carlos in all this merriment?

I know! You'd think he would be on here defending her and her shitehouse ideology - is he beside himself with grief or something?

Poor tory-boy must be distraught 

[Sir Harvest Fields]

He proved to be just that little bit too "qiqabal".

Ahh i getcha Jim, who had that pleasure

[RojoLeón]

He proved to be just that little bit too "qiqabal".

Ahh i getcha Jim, who had that pleasure

He was banned? Whatever for?!!

Well, I wouldn't dream of insulting the recently departed, unless they are right wing, fascist ideology loving Tory c*nts. And Thatcher.

[Sir Harvest Fields]

I bet he was busting his aorta trying to defend the old cow. Its days like this i wish i was sat at home watching him implode. Well, at least the mods are here to cheer us up

[Billy The Kid]

Want to get angry? Put Fox News on.

Some of the shite being spouted in this video is astonishing

Socialism - Carlos would NOT be happy

The TV is like Halloween all over again - every channel has something on about a witch.

[only6times]

Masturbation for me.

The TV is like Halloween all over again - every channel has something on about a witch.

Ahem.

Freeview Channel 15.

"Nowhere Boy."

[Circa1892]

"Well she was right at the time, Mandela was a terrorist, it was a fair and just comment."

That's the lengths people are going to to defend her. Morons.

[damian]

Ahem.

"Nowhere Boy."

Cheers, will set a reminder for +1 so I catch the beginning

I've actually just flicked the TV over to the Manc match as the wife has finished watching her soaps and the match sounded boring, but now I see United are losing. Can today get much better, really?

Edit: were losing. Shouldn't have flicked over really.

Discussed this earlier in the boozer(free pint for red J).......anyway....going back to the last big funeral and it was Lady Di and we had people lashing roses on the hearse - we're thinking as the hearse makes it's way down whatever street - people throwing lumps of cole and cartons of milk?.... you could even throw the odd drug addict and pride ridden working man as well if you wanted to
