Whatever people think of the ***** the one thing they agree upon is that she caused great divisions in the country with strongly-held opinions and in some cases deeply hurt people on each side. That's exactly why I think it's a shame for the Government to make us pay for any kind of publicised burial as it will open old wounds again.
Thatcher was and is hated - and I mean genuinely hated - by a large proportion of the public across the demographic spectrum, and the fact that she was eventually voted out would indicate it's possibly as much as half the population who feel that way. As SK points out, any celebration is likely to get disrupted and to suggest to voters that they would have to pay for the celebration is too insensitive not to anger many people. A public celebration would be inflammatory and divisive IMO, but they'll do it anyway.

Re: Thatcher Dead. Wed Apr 10 2013, 08:55Correct, she was too right wing! Took being selfish too far, ie. there is no such thing as society. The tories finally saw she was losing it and she left number ten scrieking, another great day. Likened it to the day Phil Neil was hoofed.BoltonTillIDie wrote:Wasn't she forced out by her fellow conservative members?

My apologies for the technical innacuracy. She was voted out by the Tories as the polls showed she was the most unpopular PM since god knows when and they knew they were going to lose.Tigermin wrote:BoltonTillIDie wrote:Wasn't she forced out by her fellow conservative members?
Yes.

These short and catty posts do my head in.
Can you not engage in an actual debate?
