Hellfire?

Yes, Hellfire. May she rot in Hell for what she did supposedly for the UK but more often because she couldn't take not getting her way.

She made a right mess of things whenever people wouldn't show their bellies to the Empire. Standing up for yourself and your rights was not allowed on her watch.

Of course I may be a little biased

Heh, Obama couldn't have asked for a better present than Thatcher dying right now, during the budget crisis.

Everyone going to remember how she pushed through huge reductions in government spending and increases in the interest rate in 1979-1980, and then how the UK economy subsequently nosedived. (18% inflation in 1981, 13% unemployment in 1982) As far as random events go, there's not many that could have better vindicated Obama's platform of high spending and low interest rates.

I think we have gone through a period when too many children and people have been given to understand "I have a problem, it is the Government's job to cope with it!" or "I have a problem, I will go and get a grant to cope with it!" "I am homeless, the Government must house me!" and so they are casting their problems on society and who is society? There is no such thing! There are individual men and women and there are families and no government can do anything except through people and people look to themselves first. It is our duty to look after ourselves and then also to help look after our neighbour and life is a reciprocal business and people have got the entitlements too much in mind without the obligations.

I'm sorry Xequecal, but history knows the progressive myth about the late 70s and early 80s to be wrong.

Every move she made was charged by negativity; she destroyed the British manufacturing industry, she hated the miners, she hated the arts, she hated the Irish Freedom Fighters and allowed them to die, she hated the English poor and did nothing at all to help them, she hated Greenpeace and environmental protectionists, she was the only European political leader who opposed a ban on the ivory trade, she had no wit and no warmth and even her own cabinet booted her out. She gave the order to blow up The Belgrano even though it was outside of the Malvinas Exclusion Zone—and was sailing AWAY from the islands! When the young Argentinean boys aboard The Belgrano had suffered a most appalling and unjust death, Thatcher gave the thumbs-up sign for the British press.

Iron? No. Barbaric? Yes. She hated feminists even though it was largely due to the progression of the women’s movement that the British people allowed themselves to accept that a prime minister could actually be female. But because of Thatcher, there will never again be another woman in power in British politics, and rather than opening that particular door for other women, she closed it.

Thatcher will only be fondly remembered by sentimentalists who did not suffer under her leadership, but the majority of British working people have forgotten her already, and the people of Argentina will be celebrating her death. As a matter of recorded fact, Thatcher was a terror without an atom of humanity.

Morrissey makes good music but I'm not giving him one red cent because he has proven to be a general idiot in areas that matter.

She influenced Morrissey, U2, Macgowan, Floyd, and many many more.

Well..."influenced" in the same sense that Hitler "influenced" the making of Schindler's List.
