Hi everyone,
I'm gonna be a bit political here, but being just a wee nipper when Maragret Thatcher was in office for such a long time in the UK, my memory is a little vauge, and to be honest it would be nice to get an external view of her, her party and Thatcherism in general.
Personally, my opinion is this:
Maggie single-handedly ruined pretty much every working-class industry, closed most of the coal mines, privatised and closed down as many hospitals as she possibly could, Waged war to add several years on her CV as the first female prime minister, and overall was a horrible little woman who was generally out of touch with the people.
A lot of people in big business admire her for her hard approach in crushing unions and her capitalist stance, but I'll never forgive her for ruining so many working-class people's livelyhoods.
I know on an external front she had a very good relationship with Ronald Regan and Nikiel Gobachov, but from an impartitial view, what do you think of her and thatcherism in general?
