    What would you have rathered - placation of the 'working classes' in the late 70s and 80s and an underperforming relic of a country - or a small island, punching above its weight and still (ironically) somewhat respected by first-world nations, populated by largely content middle-class consumers?

    what about a country which "outdated" modes of society were changed over time, with enough investment and, frankly, care to not leave large tracts of anywhere north of london devastated and still in recovery today?

    Thatcher ultimately provoked change which was necessary, doing so in such a way as to leave 90% of teh country far behind the tory strongholds and fucked fucked fucked for years.

    then she decided to start experimenting with new tax models in "the provinces", nice - cheers for ripping up our social fabric, not giving a fucking monkeys and then sticking us with your evil tax try outs.

    she's a fucking evil old hag, responsible for as much suffering in this country as the wonderful merits of being a rich middle class tory voter that you have noted above.
