Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

I may give a bob or two to a funeral pyre for Blair, as well as few others, along as it was immediate.

You are a truly disgusting character, Tanker there is no excuse for making a comment like that. I think you should remove the post I referred to.

would you fish in the bottom of a pub urinal to rescue 2p? ...... if not, then why flatter the village idiot by bothering to react?

she had police planted has miners .
she was no saint you should read about her .

doodle . are you a innocent

You can blame the miners' strike and conflict on one person only. Scargill caused the whole thing and never even had a union vote on the strike. Just a communist trying to bring down the government with Soviet money.

cynic the lowest insult is to be called yellow but it fits you fine

hay that is a lie .

thatcher wanted the miners to strike and then planted police to course trouble

Scargill was an egotistical twit who wasn't interested in the miners - he just wanted to see himself on the telly every day.

She is having an official funeral with military honours at St Paul's Cathederal That's effectively a state funeral.

a lot of good people died because of her innocent people

Thatcher in many people's mind will be remembered by the deaths of over 900 lives in the Fauklands War, for her own "glory", to save her own position and due to incompetence if her foreign policy prior to the invasion

Also, saving the backside of Pinochet a war criminal and murderer.

The ruining of many industries and of course the Poll Tax, which is now being relaunched as the Bedroom Tax.

I only hope the present clown in charge doesn't copy her by having his own place in history by starting another war.

I'll stop there for a while.

She will be rolling over in her grave.

Thatcher built up the coal stocks as she expected a strike. Scargill called the strike without a vote in summer. He saw how The Heath government was brought down by the unions and wanted to do it again. Scargill took several millions of pounds from the Soviet government to fund the strike. A large part of that money has never been accounted for. Scargill was a crook, an agent provocateur and a traitor to the UK. He should be in the Tower.

Nick Clegg today launched a blistering attack on his Coalition partner David Cameron, claiming the Tories have a record of squandering taxpayers' money on 'vanity projects'.

The Deputy Prime Minister accused Tory councils of wasting cash on taxis carrying cups of tea and magicians brought in to boost the morale of staff.


The Liberal Democrat leader was launching his party's local election campaign and tried to distance himself from the Prime Minister by claiming 'you can't rely on Conservatives to build a fairer society'.

Mr Clegg also said the Tories and Labour are the 'same thing', saying both have a record in local government of waste and inefficiency.

'Their record in local government shows that even when millions of families are feeling the pinch, they'll both squander taxpayers' money on waste, inefficiency and their own vanity projects,' the Deputy Prime Minister said.

'In Leicestershire, the former Conservative Council Leader spent £210,000 on his own personal chauffeur.
the knifes are out .

fred well said ,

2 years now of the coalition fighting to get back in the good books it will not work

was does the queen not speak out about the tyrant king abdulah a evil vile man

who rules by fear
they brought down sadam gadaffi but look at most evil man on the planet as a god

Thatcher introduced laws for the behaviour of trades union. For all the socialist complaints, not one law was repealed by the subsequent Labour government. The laws were exactly what Labour wanted as well, but they were too scared of their paymasters (the unions) to pass them themselves.

Flags flying at half mast on official buildings and Buickingham Palace.

Tanker - please tell me why the hell do you live in this Country if you are so perpetually disgruntaled?

Judging by his command of the English language, I suspect that he is an immigrant himself.

Hays,

I agree with the first part of 22996.

Scargill was an ideological fool like you seem to be.
.
He made numerous mistakes and his aims were certainly questionable.

The main mistakes were timing of the strike, not allowing a free vote throughout all the mining areas.

Another mistake was that he was unaware of the preparation and reorganisation by the police in preparation for the show down.

Both Scargill and Thatcher showed mismanagement of the situation by massaging their own egos. It was disastrous.

She will be remembered for "there is no such thing as society".

As far as Scargill taking millions from the Soviet union is concerned, I think it is a little better than standing up to one's knees in cow dung begging for millions from cash barons in the Cayman Isles
