    What a charisma. I am a recent graduate. Ive been through a lot of interviews and I got none. I figure out that during my interview I wasnt convincing enough. I later thought to my self, if I wanted to change my personality and started to be a very convincing person, who should be my mentor. I immediately came up with Thatcher, and surely enough on my next interview I got the job. So I should really thank her. Lol.

There was a perfectly legitimate leadership contest which she didn't win. All prime ministers are dependent upon parliament and if they can't command the confidence of the majority in parliament they must go. She had lost that confidence. Prime minister are not directly elected. There was no coup. She was removed perfectly fairly and legitimately.

She completely controls this interview, and she does it while expounding and defending the essence of her policies rather than using cheap media tricks. Truly inspirational!

    Lady Thatcher is sheer class here, calm, erudite and ready with relevant facts and figures on her fingertips (not unheard of in politicians abroad, but well, our place is a tad different). It is also interesting, though not surprising, to see what a different time 1982 was; when the interviewer first introduces the topic of unemployment, he talks about 'men in Glasgow, Liverpool...' It was then, I suppose, much more a man's world than it is today (though the Prime Minister was a woman even in '82). If a journalist ever said such a thing today, we'd have to write the epitaph of his career on Twitter the next day.

Boris is one of those - there isn't really a game plan it's just living from day to day.

      One part the comment is right on is house prices. If you compare house prices in the North West from 1978 until now with inflation, a house now costs 3 times as much, relative to income/inflation, what they did in 1978. It's one of the reasons that the average first time buyer's house in the UK now costs 9x average salary as opposed to between 2-3x average wage in 1978. Interest rates were higher, which bumped up mortgages but it also let savers earn a ton. Nowadays it's simply much harder to save unless you're living with your parents.
      Case in point, a £12000 house in 1978 would now be worth between £200K and £250K. In contrast, £12,000 then is now worth about £70,000 now. If you were someone with a good job in the 80's you raked it in compared to now.

    It's not until one looks back until you have a realisation that there have always been problems but Maggie and those that supported her had the guts to make the hard decisions. All we get now is a circus of lies, arguments & self interest also why do any so called solutions consist of just (printing more) & throwing money at problems, (NHS is a prime example). Efficiencies & improvements are brought about by spending what is available wisely and not outsourcing of overpriced services which only make a small minority of greedy business owners even wealthier, while people in need suffer.

    Such a consummate politician whether talking the talk or walking the walk. She turned Britain around from one of its biggest slumps. This interview takes place before the boom of the mid to late 80s, with a minor blip in the the early 90s, but her foundations and legacy led Britain through all of its later prosperity - right up until Brexit harikari in fact. Oh and that interviewer is getting more and more frustrated that Thatcher is wiping the floor with him.
