Am I the only person on this planet who thought Maggie was a women to be admired? :)

I was 14 years old when she became PM and, at the time, I was very proud of this woman who could enter a 'mans world' and be as strong as the rest of them.

We may not have agreed with everything that she did, which much pretty goes for the rest of the PM's and Presidents we have had since. One thing she did do was show us young teens that a women can be as strong as the men - maybe even stronger; she had to be - she was the only female in an all male political world.

Hats off to you Maggie !! :-6

At least she had more bollocks than Gordon Brown

A woman to be admired????

The bitch should be on the same pedestal as Pinochet and Hitler. She was a blight on the face of humanity and should have been charged with as a war criminal after the Falklands fiasco.

When she eventually snuffs it, I will be (if I get there in time) in the front row of those who are celebrating the internment. We will be ensuring that herself is buried facedown, with a bloody great stake through the place that her heart was rumoured to be, under at least six feet of concrete, in a place which is surrounded with garlic, crosses and silver bullets (just to make sure).

Chookie, for Pete's sake don't muck about - just speak your mind ;)

Yes we all know that the Falklands was a put up job, because she was loosing favour in the UK. The navy could have made a 'courtesy visit' to put the Argies off - the government had plenty of time to organise that but Madam decided to keep a lid on things for a few weeks. A lot of lives were lost unnecessarily, just to boost her ego!:-5 :mad:
