Margaret Thatcher seems to stir strong emotions one way or the other. She was either the greatest of all post-War PMs, or the bitch queen of hell bent on wrecking Britain. Sadly, I rarely hear anyone, whether expressing a positive or negative opinion of her, give any of the reasoning behind their point of view.
This could be a very interesting thread, very aptly timed to coincide with the anniversary of her gaining office. But if it is to be interesting, IMO we need to get some real discussion of the issues going, and avoid lapsing into a kind of tired re-working of a mid-80s Ben Elton stand-up routine.
So, Thatcher lovers and Thatcher haters alike, please tell me: why?
