Being an anarchist, and all in favour of free speech,.........................
As a Catholic, I believe there is retribution in the next life. What ever the mistakes she made whilst alive, she's gone now. Time to move on, and let her go.
Haven't looked at this thread for days, well since I last posted. 8 pages - gosh.
I'm not an anarchist but I do know quite a few folks who are. I have to say I've never come across a Catholic Anarchist. How the heck does that work?
I have to say I was pretty sickened by the BBC's inital coverage of her death, just as I was a few years back when that other nasty bastard Reagan died. I'm also disgusted that this woman is getting a massive funeral, this umm, ceremonial funeral. I still haven't seen any explanation of why Thatcher is getting such a lavish funeral and being treated as some sort of universal nation treasure. Why is she not having a quiet funeral as is the norm for ex PM's?
But you gotta laugh when Ding Dong The Witch is Dead hits No.1 It's only a few buttons in the scheme of things and despite all the propaganda being spouted by the powers that be and the BBC, well there it is, you can't deny how the nation really feels.
Her death makes no difference, she won, she destroyed our Unions and our communities, and in the longer term our economy, of which Cameron and his millionaires have no intention of sorting out, only cutting their costs and ripping as much cash out of us as they can while they can. Maggie won, we live with her legacy, but who can be surprised by the reaction when the government of the day goes into overdrive to praise and celebrate her life that there is, however it is expressed, a substantial and negative reaction from people across the UK.
My only hope is in the longer term is that people engage their brains, and link together the governments of the last few decades, as after all many would say that Tony Blair was Maggie's greatest achievement, these governments that destroyed our country's post war dream of a fair and civil society for all.
Meanwhile as a Scot, how does not ever want another Tory government imposed on us (Maggie's other great achievement, though one she would probably deny - The Scottish Parliament), I can only congratulate David Cameron and his true blue buddies in their fantastic campaigning effort for Scottish Independence over the last week. Thanks Dave!
