OK here goes... Thatcher was a strong leader just as Hitler was, she ruled by fear... her first decission was to give the police and the Army the biggest raise they ever had... generous????? lol... covering her back... 
Wilson closed more pits than Thatcher????? how many miners did he sack???? he closed every mine that employed less than 100 men....and transferred them to larger mines... my pit at its height employed 4,000 men, and by closing that single pit she passed anything Wilson did..
she was never a fool, when she got her first ministry she looked towards Europe, which country had the strongest ecconomy???Germany by a country mile so she investigated how they managed that....she was shocked to find that Germany subsidised all their heavy industries... mining and steel, she pointed out to the Germans that this was against the rules of the European Union... Germany was shocked and appologised to her, but continued with the subsidies.. but the Lady would have non of it, she ignored the germans and showed that real polititions followed ALL the rules, and refused any subsidies to all our industries, which closed all our heavy industries, but the lady was not for turning, she sacked all the miners and put them on the dole. so lets say they all got £50 a week dole money......the Germans refused to give their miners dole money, instead they paid the dole money to the mining industry as a subsidy!!!! idiots... that was the stupidest thing Thatcher ever heard of... so she closed our mines and bought german coal!!!!... she was evil and should have been burned, but crap wont burn!!!! this country will never recover the damage she did... she replaced the jobs in Doncaster... we have five prisons and dozens of call centres...so to all her fans, what exactly is she famous for apart from starving the miners out????? i will wait...... even her own cabinet stabbed her in the back to get rid of her.... actually she was famous for something outside politics.... she was part of the team that invented Mr Softee ice cream....

OK she was used by John Logie Baird, to demonstrate his colour tv in 1938

Quote from: klondike on <strong>Yesterday</strong> at 06:17:36 PMHe's a Scot. He won't have a good word for any British PM but I assume you are referring to his pit closures

When I was teaching, I used to take my class to the local coal mine as was, now a museum.  Soon after retiring, I volunteered to help out at the mine with other school visits and found that quite rewarding.  Since then, my situation changed and I had to retire from my voluntary work there.  Since then, Marge and I have been back there to visit and they have made quite some improvements.  They are doing well today and I'd recommend a visit.

Ethel put sparkly balls on her Christmas tree
She stood back and admired it - a real sight to see
With some pretty lights and tinsel too
All to impress her new boyfriend - Hugh

That's right, Alex.   It was Benny. 

(I tried to post a picture of him,  but it doesn't work?)
