What p's me off in all this is that those who loathed her will be attending her funeral.Why.?
The Blairs will be filling their boots,as usual,as will be the Kinnocks. Blair ( Bliar ) who took us unnecessarily into Iraq about some fairy-tale concerning WMD's,,of which there were none.Then when it was found he was lying,,he went after Saddam Hussein,,,who WASN'T a threat to this country,,but since his death,his legacy is now a long-lasting threat.
I didn't believe in the killing of Hussein. His treatment of his own people had nothing whatsoever to do with us,,,which proves it now with the Middle East in general as it remains on a knife-edge.
I'll eat my hat if Scargill attends the funeral,because he was another thorn in the side of the nation in trying to bring the country to its knees with the striking miners.Did he ever go to their rescue with food and money.? Of course he didn't.He scuttled off to his warm,luxurious house ( at the expense of the striking miners ) and tucked in to his gourmet meals. Quite a few of the miners by this time saw right through the shyster.
The strikes of 1979 were horrendous also,,with bodies piling up in mortuaries,,someones mum,dad,brother,sister,granny,grandad,etc,,waiting to be buried. Rubbish piled high in the streets,then some idiot asks what the panic's all about.
Those who either weren't born,or too young to understand,will only believe what they're told as it suits the teller how it's told,,,instead of reading the truth,and that's why we're having so much conflict over a blessed funeral and its costs,,which I'm sick of hearing about when there are BILLIONS of taxpayers money going overseas every year.
Has anyone ever given someone else a foot up the ladder like Thatcher did.?
Yes,,I had a damn good run for my money when Labour were in power,because of their careless mismanagement,,but by God,,it comes right home to you when you have to pull the reins in over someone elses mistake,,which is happening right now when dozy Brown sold off the gold at a silly price when it was at its lowest price.
How near bankruptcy we were when Brown left office,I don't know,,but if he'd got us out of the mess we were in and doled money out like sweets,then I'd have stuck with it.
With the money that's sent abroad,,my idea would be to firstly give every citizen of this country £1 million pound each===roughly £65 million,,a drop in the ocean when you consider the amount which goes overseas. Surely,,a Labour-minded person wouldn't object to that idea. What each one did with their £1 million would be up to them. A kickstart to the economy,,and everyone equal. After all,bankers,politicians and the like,help themselves to such bonuses,so why not everyone else who put them there in the first place.After all,we've all paid,still paying taxes to keep these rich merchants.
