She negotiated the EU rebate that the UK had from 1980 until we left the EU. She put the UK back into global politics. She lowered the national debt. There's a lot people can complain about (frequently incorrectly), but the idea she did nothing good is such a bad take.
“Isnt that a horrible thing to say” it is not horrible compared to the people she hurt and the damage she caused. How many went without because of her?
Well I hope I don't die too soon I pray the lord my soul to save Oh I'll be a good boy, I'm trying so hard to behave Because there's one thing I know, I'd like to live Long enough to savor That's when they finally put you in the ground I'll stand on your grave and tramp the dirt down https://youtu.be/9t4-zDem1Sk?si=6nvQ_C29b12LWBok
I know of one for sure I’ll have the same answer as this lady if I’m asked of their passing… shit I’d say worse and with a glass of champagne in my hand. I’m planning on buying a bottle just for that if I can get there before the run on the liquor store.
Before she even died officials were planning this funeral.. Frankie Boyle: 3 million?! For 3 million they could give everyone in Scotland a shovel and we would dig a hole so deep that we could hand her over to Satan personally.
Don't you think she did a bit of good? Not a bit, not a bit. I'd put a stake through her heart and garlic around her neck to make sure she stays dead. That's a little horrible considering her funeral is going on right now? Too bad, too bad.
She was a monster. She killed all of the industry Scottish workers were doing for Britain, then ALSO refused to let Scotland leave Britain or do work for other countries.
Her polices severly affected Scotland and North Ireland - she killed British industries up there which led to mass unemployment. Then she raised high taxes on the poor, and privatized public services, oh and then terrorized striking coal miners.
Yeah probably. It's a strange piece of history though. An ad libbed scene by a future President of the United States, and apparently the actress Angie Dickinson didn't hold any ill will against Ronnie Reagan. Said it was out of character for him
BTW, the Reagan administration was the nail in the coffin

Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan had the most strangest relationship in political history.

Absolutededly mostest strangest relationship Everest.

Thatcher and Reagan are 69ing in hell, and Brian Mulroney is watching from the cuck chair.

Thatcher was horrid

Why is ot horrible to point out horrible people? Fuck that. Dance on her grave, old lady. And don't feel a second of regret for it.

Any good? Well she died, there is that.

Too little, too late. Could have been more helpful and died a lot sooner.

This old lady is spot on. Just because someone's dead doesn't mean they deserve good will. They were a piece of shit and should be remembered as such.

True, nothing like rolling up to a funeral to be told that the scum of the earth was really the salt of the earth.

jmacg
If you hear him speak, it’s pretty clear he’s from Scotland, which is part of the UK.

This is one of his more popular comedy bits:

"I'd put a stake through her heart and garlic round her neck, just to make sure she never comes back!"

That is rather harsh. I take it that her politics were somewhat divisive?
