Lady Thatcher
One thing Pious Pilot and his pseudo-leftie mates forget is that Mrs T and her government were democratically elected by the people, and in 1983 in particular with a massive majority. I can't be faffed to look up the figure!
Let me tell you a story about industry - I was told by someone who worked for MG at Abingdon ,that they used to build cars 24/7,but the night shift guys came to work with sleeping bags,got their heads down and at the end of their shift proceeded to start assembling cars on overtime. MG sold most of their sports cars to the US market,all at a huge loss. It could not go on, and didn't!
Mrs T was hugely respected around the world, because she was tough and not a pushover. The best PM of my lifetime.
