Joesaint Posted 9 April, 2013 Share Posted 9 April, 2013 Not sure it is needed, she did sort out the country, but was quite brutal. If you have 1 min silence which is ruined, its not that good. Politics should not quite be the popularity contest that it is today, politics is so fake I hate it. (PS, Everyone understands she had a positive impact on the economy, as well as defeating the unions, hence why most political parties are center. Maybe thats the greatest respect. She did make mistakes, but she was great on Europe, thank **** we are not in the Euro!!! I do not want to be part of a Federal Europe, no no no!! ha ha RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minutes silence? Wonder how many Wiganers agreed with that prat. That was not buying votes, that was encouraging people to work, it was also designed to put trust into the business, they can then be made more profitable and successfull, or if running at a loss, take the burden off the taxpayer. Even Labour understand it was required, and will say so now. She changed politics forever, although, like I said, she was brutal. No other polition would of had the guts to stand up to the unions though, who were socialist, and were becoming too powerfull. She is the longest serving PM, as well as only woman PM of the country. I do NOT agree with a minutes silence (as said before) as I don't think it is appropriate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
