The telecoms industry is a good one. It facilitates people being able to spend every waking hour on an internet football message board going around in circles on all sorts of topical matters... the service would be down every ten minutes if run by the government....

Yeah, quick Sour Mash.... pluck a statistic out of the air to back up your claims....

The left wing public lining the pockets of a company that is a beacon of capitalism to mock her death.... I'm sure Lady Thatch is having a wry smile as we speak... Carlsberg don't do back handed compliments but if they did....

Grumpy Git ‏@eml15233h @mattletiss7 Any chance of wishing your rivals good luck in court today? We need the south coast derby to survive. Matt Le Tissier ‏@mattletiss73h @eml1523 yes we do good luck Will 'Moon' Kipling ‏@WillKipling14m @mattletiss7 @eml1523 Shove your goodluck up your ass you big nosed scummer

@pn_neil_allen: On today of all days and still there are WUMs coming out. And they support #Pompey. Very sad.

When you've got £millions of parachute payments to divert from the creditors anything is possible....

@pn_neil_allen: The Old Cock Tavern. It's round the corner. Joining us?

So, Harris to buy stadium and lease back to PDT...? Or PDT calling Harris/Chainrai's bluff by saying they'd now rather move the club to another home....?

Maybe my hunch from last week (court case won't go ahead due to behind scenes deal) has potential...

SunSport Now ‏@SunSportNow1m Coventry have withdrawn their appeal against a 10-point deduction for going into administration. #skyblues

Sky News Newsdesk ‏@SkyNewsBreak29m Financial reporting regulator says it is considering probing the KPMG audit of HBOS in run up to the bank's failure

The Cooler King ‏@JamieN7434s “@SkyNewsBreak: Tony and Cherie Blair confirm they will be attending Baroness Thatcher's funeral next week” C***s burying a c***

George Galloway ‏@georgegalloway1h New Labour's fawning over Margaret Thatcher is truly madly deeply insane George Galloway ‏@georgegalloway1h Show your lack of respect for the wicked witch...JOIN Respect! http://www.respectparty.org

@pn_neil_allen: Reason for delay remains unclear. Hearing contrasting reasons for it. Not worth speculating on! #Pompey

@pn_neil_allen: Now adjourned again. Told not on again before 2pm. #Pompey Sigh...

That could have paid for a couple of gold plated coffin handles FFS....

Do you really expect me to type that into Google image search....?!

Aren't we just as good at this art and music malarkey now as we were pre-Thatcher and thereafter? I thought the idea here was to highlight industries that were buoyant in the 70s but subsequently "decimated" by Thatcher? Edit: Ok, The Spice Girls aside...I'll give you that one

Might be worth referring to the Labour rules on this matter: 1) You can't blame the last Labour government for anything that is happening in the economy today as that was 3 years ago. 2) You can blame the Tories for anything that is happening today in the economy as that was only 30 years ago

That's a good read - thanks for posting. It highlights the difference I tried to articulate yesterday. Brand manages to criticise Thatcher without resorting to vitriol.

A drop in the ocean compared to the amount of money she saved the country (but there's another thread for me spouting this and other ignorant views)

Nope, I'm going for "All systems go for the PDT". It would mean having to spend another 2 years of my life on here but it would be worth it...

I've been pressed by people in Corby before. Going back for more in June. #frottage

@pn_Emma_Judd: We're not being moved but they are trying to find more chairs for us all. #pompey Plenty of spare ones at Fratton Park love...

Hush now.... facts tend to get in the way of mythology....
