Fair enough, next time I will just clarify. I don't agree with celebrating anyone's death, but I also understand why it happens. With Politesub my intention wasn't to defend that so much as to defend the Left in Britain. I don't think holding a street party because someone died speaks volumes about the Left. It was her choice of solution that I didn't like, I'm not denying the problems existed before she was elected.

Well, that's something you are much more accustomed to, than I. I'm sure this thread will be handy in the archives, when the next old lefty goes off to answer for their deeds. This guy is always threatening us of some imagined future drubing,after getting his assed kicked(retorhically) or when his party looks like shit.... "you just wait till next time, yada yada....why I`m gonna yada yada...." [:D]

The lefts idea of holding parties to celebrate a womans death shows a lack of class. As do the remarks of some MP`s in the Commons today, especially Glenda Jackson. I noticed Lord (I`ll never accept a peerage) Prescott was quick to praise Jacksons remarks. I have to say I have absolute disdain for lefties like this who swap sides in the class war when it suits them.

Its the part where it was the lefts idea to hold the street party that I disagreed with, but yeah at this point I'm happy to agree to disagree. I'm not really cut out for this board, I can barely follow my own advice most of the time! Have a good one, I will probably be back to be inconsistent all over another thread in the near future.

FR- omg.. I just read this.. this is so funny.. Thatcher is still playing politics even from beyond the grave.. literally..

I find this a lot funnier: quote: Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead has moved up to number 4 in the race for the top spot in this Sunday’s Official Singles Chart. The song has sold almost 20,000 copies and is currently 14,000 behind the current number 1 Need U (100%) by Duke Dumont FT AME. It has rocketed into the charts following a Facebook campaign by Thatcher critics following her death.

Well, go back to reminiscing about the time she sent you breastmilk, that was a good time in your life, PS.

Try this Peter Wylie one for a bit of heavy metal / punk tone:

Moonhead -> RE: Margaret Thatcher Dead (4/11/2013 3:54:24 PM)
Better than most of the Wah! crap, but I prefer these two: Tramp The Dirt Down Thatcherites Then there's the Moz (who I can't suffer, but you know...) Margaret On The Guillotine

PeonForHer -> RE: Margaret Thatcher Dead (4/11/2013 4:11:14 PM)
I've just realised that the Peter Wylie one was very much in the Stones' 'Wild Thing' mould. I'd come across the Billy Bragg and the Elvis Costello ones, though not the Morrissey one. TBH, they're all too much into downbeat laments for me. [Jesus am I sick of seeing her face. I've only heard a few brief moments of her voice in recordings since her death - that was even worse.] Hell's bells - did you hear the line 'John Major is now the greatest living British politician'? I think this is the line that's struck me the most in the last couple of days.

Moonhead -> RE: Margaret Thatcher Dead (4/11/2013 4:14:20 PM)
At least they've realised that Boris Johnson is a zombie. [:D]
