dead Margaret Thatcher

[Phantom 2,530]

 

How would it have been unsustainable? It wasn't just Hong Kong island, it was other islands as well, one that I know of is larger than Hong Kong island plus a small section of the mainland. Gibraltar is only 0.5% approx the size of Hong Kong, is it unsustainable? What about the Falkland Islands with only 3,000 inhabitants, is that unsustainable?

The island could not have existed without support from the mainland. As for the other two, they too are unsustainable in the long run. The Falkland Islands are a massive drain on British taxpayers' money. It's a shame we didn't negotiate them away before the Argentinians invaded. Gibralter is an anachronism, rather like Northern Ireland.

Godot, socialist and proud of it.

 

The Falkland Islands weren't British territory to begin with just like Hong Kong wasn't. We stole the Falklands from the Argentinians 200 years ago.

That's actually not true. Argentina was squatting in the islands but Britain had already claimed them and occupied them previously and had not renounced their claim. 200 years ago we took them back just like we did 25 years ago. They are British and those Argentine pigs won't be getting another chance to occupy them. As for Hong Kong, part of that was ceded to Britain in 1842 under the treaty of Nanjiung. Ceded means you get to keep and the former power no longer has any claim to it. It was also uninhabitated when Britain took over and Britain transformed it into a thriving capitalist metropolis paradise. Of course when you've got a commie loving maniac tramp in control that all changes. Thatcher murdered the empire and she deserves to face justice. She is evil scum and women have no business being in government let alone being leaders. It is abomination.

Maggie Thatcher does not appear to have attended Pinochets funeral-any significance in this I wonder?

 

It is a long way for such an old bag to travel. I wouldn't read much into it.

[Xenon II 0]

So where does that leave his apologist Thatcher?

 

An interesting dilemma for the Iron and unwell lady.

 

Is the old commie unwell? I do hope it's not a long drawn out illness.

The day she dies and goes to hell will be declared a national holiday and there will be street parties and dancing in the streets and quite rightly too.

 

I wouldn't be too sure of that. Yes I suspect there will be a good deal of cheering going on but she was the UK's first female PM and the only one with any balls to take on the unions. Discussions have already taken place about whether she will get a state funeral and the Brits being the Brits will suffer from short memory syndrome and turn out to mourn her in droves.

 

By balls I suppose you mean the Security Services, the Police, the Special Branch, numerous financial allies, a recession-inducing economic policy, a divided Opposition and North Sea Oil revenues?

Class reply, MIB. She's assured of her place in 20th century history but I don't think she is deserving of a state funeral.

It was the British who were first to record setting foot on the islands, when a privateer, Cpt John strong, was forced totake refugethere from a storm. He named them after the then Lord of the Admiralty (Falkland) but they were first claimed by France, who sold them to Spain for the modern-day equivalent of £250,000. They remained under the control of Spain and her inheritors, The United Provinces of Rio de la Plata and that new state's successor Argentina until 1831. After a dispute over the numbers of seals that could be hunted, Cpt Silas Duncan of the USS Lexington declared the islands "Free of all government" the British saw an opportunity to reassert thier own sovereignty and did so in 1833. They have remained so ever since (barring 2 1/2 months in 1982).

 

They are a bleek windswept hole, a lot like Donegal (but with less trees and pubs). The only good thing about them was the Sea Trout fishing, and the only laugh was setting off 12 year old Argentinian mines with a jimpy( but I got one hell of a bollocking for doing it!)

 

 

I hope this makes things a litle clearer.

Yep they'd be the ones.

 

Seriously though at least she did think for herself unlike the present poodle even if she did come up with the wrong answer from time to time.

 

Don't get me wrong, I'm no great lover of Mrs T, I'm even handed, I hate all politicians but I don't think she's as bad as the present PM.

[millwall32 114]

God I hope this bitch carks it in 2006, however as has been said, she is a candidate to live forever - some sick bastard will probably clone her. Hoepfully she dies in some hiddeous accident that manages to scrape every trace of DNA off the face of the earth - we can but hope.

"Carks It". Good way of putting it.

Sounds about right to me. Thatcher, a feminazi and a whore, raped what was left of the Empire, stole our milk and deserves to face justice. The General on the other hand, deserved a state funeral. He made a positive and essential contribution to his country for which anyone but a dirty commie would be eternally grateful. It's only 'coz there is now a feminazi socialist BITCH in power he didn't get one. It is an outrage and a disgrace.

No one likes it. No one likes feminazis. As a female, it was an embarrasment to the country as "leader". It brings the office of PM intro disrepute to have a female occupy it. No one wants to pay for this sick bitches funeral. I am sure it is not short of a bob or two, let the white trash pay for its own funeral. No one likes an extremist and no one but a fascist wants it to have a state funeral. It is a raper of British history and that's what people will be mourning, its reign of terror and Britain's decreased standing in the world thanks to its gross mismanagement and certainly not IT.

 

BTW, did I mention I HATE the good for nothing gender identity confused bitch?

1. I think Blair is managing to this just as well and in some cases better. I don't think gender has anything to do with it but 'agenda' does. She set out to prove she was as tough as the men and he's set out to prove he's as influential as the US president and they were both wrong.

 

2. No you hadn't metioned that but I kind of guessed.

[Real Madron 6]

i didnt think thatcher was THAT bad... maybe i'm too young. and what was the problem with a female PM? i mean, i know she wasnt perfect by any means, but its a pretty tough job i would imagine. and that falklands bit was pretty cool wasnt it? give her a break. however, if i'm gonna have to pay for that bitches funeral?!?!

I've emigrated to the colonies (Australia) so I will be immune from having to pay.

Prime Minister is a man's job, that's what is wrong with it. I think she thought she WAS a man.

The Falklands were fun, but really she should have defended them better to begin with.

Why not? They could hardly do any worse than the ones we've got asleep at the wheel at the moment.

I don't support the "Australian Labor Party" (haha the dumb convicts can't even spell ) because since 1991 that evil socialist organizations official position has been to adopt the stance of being constitutional vandalists. They wish to seek the removal of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the 2nd of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland as head of state. Miss, I don't support such treacherous behavior, that is a disgrace and a multiculturist attack on the colony of Australia's heritage and culture! "Labor" Party should be abolished!!!

Maybe if it was Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the 2nd of the United Kingdom of Great Britain, Northern Ireland and Australia there might be more reason for Aussies to give a sh*t? Just asking.

 

Superb sentiment by the way, wanting to abolish a democratic political party in the name of defending multiculturalism...

The Australian people voted in a referendum in 2000 to keep the Monarchy in Australia.

It was a narrow victory but a victory all the same. The Labour Party of Australia, with that referendum, are only permitted to remove her of head of state and not remove the monarchy. Unless of course they take it upon themselves to abolish the monarchy without the full consent on the people.

 

TLC, in Australia she has the title Queen of Australia. Or so I'm led to believe. It would make sense.

[Magere Hein 1,399]

According to Wikipedia (trust at your own peril) it's Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God, Queen of Australia and Her other Realms and Territories, Head of the Commonwealth. or indeed The Queen of Australia for short.

 

As an aside: I presume Xenon II has no problems with a female monarch.
