The bbc has reminded me that it was 30 years ago today that Thatcher was elected. As an anniversary it’s hardly worth celebrating: kind of like celebrating the anniversary of the outbreak of war or the bombing of pearl harbour. Thatcher ripped the heart out of British industry; thousands lost their jobs because of that narrowminded bint. No doubt the Tories will be celebrating in between helping CaMoron buy new carpet for number ten and putting on their shallow act of compassion. I hope this anniversary serves to remind people just how damaging a Tory government would be.
