    I often wonder who's been worse for the UK overall, Thatcher or the parade of self serving kleptocrats of more recent years. Farage and Johnson caused untold damage between them, and Farage may yet cause much more, but, honestly, they're just natural byproducts of Thatcher's project. She was the root cause, and all these sneering clowns who followed her are just minor characters in her play. She may be dead but the wounds she left us still bleed.

    Let's make today the day when we grab a stake and check on her grave, just to be sure.

    @bodil yeah, I mean don't get me wrong I disagree with pretty much everything Thatcher stood for, but at least she did stand for something, and quite probably believed she was ‘doing the right thing’ even as it needlessly shattered community after community for generations.

    These others? It's all just greed and grift.

        @bodil In so much as she remains dead we must give thanks to those brave souls who stuffed her mouth with garlic, chopped off her head and in particular drove a stake through her heart. The latter being a feat of admirable precision given the minuscule target area. To think now how proud I was of progressive Britain in 1979 to have elected a woman.

          @bodil Margaret Thatcher is the greatest British politician since Churchill.

          And you're a bit stupid.

                I'm really looking forward to celebrating [Unalive] Trump Day. No doubt, so is most of the world.

                    @bodil Are we sure she's still dead? Wouldn't put it past that monster, let's go make sure that corpse is still in the ground. 🤭

                    I wish USians had the sense to celebrate similarly when Reagan finally kicked the bucket. Maybe we should start celebrating?

                      Sadly her bastard offspring are still kicking around... and her portrayal of society as unvalued remains a heritage we have yet to correct.

                        @BenHM3 @bodil I don't disagree with that, actually, but bad shit got streamlined, modernised, and better sold with those two. Granted, it most likely would have happened without them, but maybe a bit later.

                              Donald Trump will need his own song, and of course the right artist(s) to sing it. Has to be representative of the many people Trump has demonized, murdered, persecuted and insulted. We need to have it ready to go on that great day.

                                        @bodil Thatcher might be dead, but her malign influence is not

                                          I often wonder who's been worse for the UK overall, Thatcher or the parade of self serving kleptocrats of more recent years. Farage and Johnson caused untold damage between them, and Farage may yet cause much more, but, honestly, they're just natural byproducts of Thatcher's project. She was the root cause, and all these sneering clowns who followed her are just minor characters in her play. She may be dead but the wounds she left us still bleed.

                                          Let's make today the day when we grab a stake and check on her grave, just to be sure.

                                          @bodil My Dad, who is definitely not a fan, said he respected Thatcher because she stood for what she believed in. Most of the rest since have stood for whatever the Sun and the Mail have on their front page (and more recently, whatever people complain about on Facebook or Twitter)
