Margaret Thatcher Was The Worst British Prime Minister.
Thatcher Thatcher milk snatcher ruined Britain by; 1. Privitisation of nationalised industries, causing; increased prices in energy, housing, travel. 2. Social alienation of many mining towns, where long term unemployment has been high for many year, with little attempt to improve opportunities for these folk. 3. Falklands war, unnecessarily caused death of 100+ British soldiers. 4. Support of vile Fascist dictators Pinochet (vociferously) and Suharto (strong association to a 1 million mass murderer) 5. Undemocratic regulation of unions, ie no secondary picketing surmounts to a suppression of freedom of expression.

Margaret Thatcher was a loathsome creature. Her great success was in producing a generation of greedy, selfish bastards. She stated that there is no such thing as society and destroyed this country’s sense of community. Under her leadership the gap between rich and poor increased massively with over three million unemployed. She was only interested in the well off whilst creating a low wage economy for millions. The so-called economic stability she gave us was nothing more than credit-financed booms followed by crippling recessions and in the process sold off most of this county’s assets to get herself out of her own mess.

She was the worst Prime Minister in the history of the universe! She privitazed everything making things a lot more expensive! People should make a list of the british prime ministers wiegh up the good and bad pionts and then decide if it is time for a change. If it is time to get rid of the monarch and get a president! I think that in the end there will be more bad ones than good ones!

Remember the 5th of November? If we had a president then that would never have happened! Although in a way it is a blessing! I love those fireworks and the bonfires are so pretty...

Sorry I seem to have gone off on a tangent! Now Margaret Thatcher was an evil woman who only thought evil things!

Now the Monster raving loony team... There good...

Sorry I did it again! What I would really like to say is I hate Margaret Thatcher and think she should rot in hell. That would be all.

I really had to think about how to respond to this. While her premiership was eventful at times not always in a good way. I can't bring myself to say she was the worst prime minister ever, it isn't true. She gave people the ability to buy their council houses and she diluted the unions down to a level where they should have been At least she wasn't scared to take them or incapable of fighting them. Someone who had her ruthless streak, not necessarily her ideas, would be useful in today's uncertain climate.

 Thatcher was a possibly a tyrant when it comes to the unions. She used measures which were contrary to freedom of demonstration.
Thatcher just made the country better for the rich and opened the door for inequality.
I can understand why people consider her not to be the worst prime minister (Antony Eden).
Glad i didn't live through them!

Hypocrites, you live off the prosperity that Thatcher created in the economy, yet you have the gall to call her the worst Prime Minister ever! Compare the state that Britain was in before her stint as PM, to Britain afterwards. A backwards, socialist deindustrialising nation was turned into the most successful capitalist nation in the world, with an income per capita rivalling that of America! Judging her quality by her results, your argument is stupid, bigoted and wrong

 Well I doubt you lived through it. Go tell it to the mining communities who never worked again and have lived in poverty ever since. Go tell it to the relatives of the people who died on trolleys in corridors of crumbling, under funded hospitals waiting for treatment. I’m sure they’ll love to hear your opinions about how well off they are.

Bring on Maggie two in the name of David Cameron.
As She did He will make people more accountable.

There has been a shift in accountability since Labor got into power and now look at the mess we are in and you talk about building more social housing.

What has labor done about social housing in the past ten years? Nothing. They doubled the price of beer and chucked the smokers out of the pubs and clubs.

The N.H.S. Is in melt down. And so is the banking system.
Labor mislead us over Iraq.
We have seen the end of the motor industry under there leadership,,,,,,,,,, most of farming and fishing too. Vote Labor if you like, there are always a few, I don't think they deserve the enormous salaries the award themselves,!!!

 The tories earn a lot more money than labour MP's.
Cameron is fabled to earn £3.2 million a year, i wonder where his interests lie.
It is also a great shame that labour have abandoned their principles, but then again Cameron seems to have the spine of a soggy newspaper.
