I come to bury Thatcher, not to praise her.
"I have not got an invite to the funeral. Perhaps "they" know what I
think,write and say about the woman who destroyed whole societies in
this country, decimated numerous UK industries, condemned hundreds of
thousands of people to a life on benefits, made greed and selfishness
acceptable, and declared that there is no such thing as society. The
legacy of this evil woman lives on even today in the actions and
attitudes of people like Cameron, Duncan-Smith, Schaps, Osborne and the
rest. Division rules in the UK as Tories seek to "out Maggie, Maggie".
Labour MP's and the wider Labour movement, and all other people who have
been savaged by the most divisive politician in British political
history, should boycott all events associated with the funeral and
should resist any attempt to glorify this woman with a "permanent
memorial". Her memorials are already part of our landscape. Empty
factories derelict across the country, ghost towns where there were once
thriving communities, whole generations of unemployed steel workers,
miners, ship builders and their like, all victims of Thatcher and her
vile policies. Bury the woman, but expect no flowers or sympathy from
me. As someone once said "The evil that men do lives after them" Thus so
it be with Thatcher".
