Margaret Thatcher

[Elmyn Noos]

Ignoring the morons....

 

 

Am happy to be proved wrong. S31 you're probably the only person on here with brains enough to hold an argument with me. It's not about winning - I just want to discuss. Am happy to learn as you may have more knowledge than I do. I understand numbers - and the numbers say she did a great job.

You don't, because they don't. You're a spaz.

[Manny]

Wait -- she is dead isn't she?

 

I think so, but I think we should kill her again just to make sure. Can't be too careful.

Care in the community sums the cunt up nicely.

 

Turf out the most vulnerable in society to save/make a few quid and fuck the consequences.

There wasnt anything fundamentally wrong with the principle (you of all people will recognise institutionalisation, in residents (for want of a better term) and staff); it was its poor implementation and subsequent exploitation by private business for profit that was/is so wrong

I've been waiting patiently for the "Margaret Thatcher sex tape" to surface, to no avail. I can just picture her with her skinny arse in the air and a braying rampant donkey about to stretch her sphincter. I would be prepared to pay five of your English Pounds for such a cinematic gem.

People aren't numbers though, which may be where you're going wrong.

 

Allow me to ramble momentarily. A party member was complaining about how the good things the Lib Dems were doing in government were being overshadowed by bad press on tuition fees, the bedroom tax and so on. But as another member pointed out, you can do all the good in the world, but if you mug one granny, everyone will still think you're scum.

 

Similarly with Thatcher, it's true she implemented a lot of things which really needed doing, but you can't ignore the people who suffered as a result of the deeply divisive way she went about things. And anyone who saw the suffering at close hand isn't likely to be persuaded by baseline figures.

 

Err, what?

All i did was mug one fucking granny and now all the nasty people hate me

Glad to see satire isn't dead

Fuck's sake, how did this dickhead manage to get a 5 page thread out of his fuckwitted drivel?

I wonder who he is and which forum he's sneaking back to, posting links to this and his "shite manager" thread and giggling about how he got us all to bite.

[Stu Monty]

You bezzie up to a couple of mass murderers and people go giving you a bad name. It's a tough life being a neoliberal cunt.

[Red22]

She was a cunt.

 

Consider yourself negged.

 

I don't care. Consider yourself irrelevant.

[Red22]

Gotta say that's pretty funny!

[Red22]

Even though your thoughts seem to have been formed by a 60 minute documentary?

 

No that was the catalyst. My thoughts are based on hard cold figures - namely inflation and interest rates. Please expain how she fucked up the economy from its utopian situation in 1979.

[Red22]

elmyn noos.... that is the quote of the century. 

Why don't you just kiss his ass?

[Red22]

negged. 

 

who else do you respect on here cunty bollocks? 

Certainly not idiots like you.

At least you're trying to prove me wrong rather than some of the morons on here who just shout abuse. Am not sure unemployment is a proper guide as to economic performance. The unavoidable fact is that inflation and interest rates were out of control in 1979. Growth was stifled by unions. It needed a strong leader (perhaps a hate figure) to change this. The UK wouldn't be a G5 country today were it not for her (tough) decisions. London is the financial capital of Europe and that's down to her.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

If you're not sure whether unemployment is a proper measure of economic performance, ask an unemployed person.  Talk of interest rates and "property" values and the FTSE 100 isn't worth the steam off your piss when you're skint.

You wank over her, don't you?

[Red Banjo]

Hmmmm.

 

Gotta say, i'm surprised how this thread has turned out.

I'm sure that economic performance (ie, the 'numbers' you think are everything)  is not a proper guide to how successful a society is.

 

What the fuck good is it if inflation and interest rates are low, and some graph's showing economic 'growth' if these indicators don't lead to high employment and better levels of service in the public sector (schools, hospitals etc)? 

 

'Growth' and 'good numbers' aren't something to aspire to in themselves, they're supposed to be things that then give us a better society. And I don't know many people who'd argue that Thatcher gave us that.

We value diversity of opinion here...

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

I don't want to talk about Thatcher, so I just popped in to call Red22 a prick.
