what did she doother than privatise national institutions for short-term gain and engineer an avoidable war prior to an election that the tories would clearly have lost were it not for the fervour and national pride created by that avoidable war?
I did very well out of the Thatcher years but not as a result of her policies, more as a result of the city dissociating itself from the previous socialist attitudes and adopting, wholesale, the US capitalist idiom. Thatcher did not create that situation. She just oversaw a government who happened to be in power when the city decided to change.
What about the asset-stripping of the NHS, the effects of which we are still feeling? What about the forced labour of our youth into YTS schemes that did nothing other than manufacture false numbers for the unemployment charts?
What about allowing Britain to be ruled from the EU against the wishes of the populace? An act of pig-headedness that saw the end if agriculture and fishing in the UK.
Thatcher did nothing during her term other than make the plight of the poorer-off worse.
The tories had no vision during the Thatcher years, all they did was to copy wholesale, the 'hard economics' policy of Reagan's USA. The Uk suffered for this.
But in the spirit of the 80's I can say that I made a shit-ton of money from the sale of public assets and as I'm all right jack, fuck the poor.
