      @@lindapatton7518 When has politics ever been about being friends? Worth remembering that Thatcher was also responsible for her own downfall, not entirely I admit, but in the end it was just a question of when not if. Even her husband wanted her to resign, did he stab her in the back as well?

    Ken Clarke should be thrown out of parliament with the rest of the antidemocratic politicians, father of the house my ares, he’s a senile old fool interfering in the democratic process, the sooner the old fool goes the better.

    Ted Heath does not like or treats Mrs Thatcher like dirt. She Mrs Thatcher hated Ted Heath. But I support P.R voting system for the 650 British MP's elected to House of Commons in the British general election. Like and support Mrs Thatcher she cut income tax from 83% to 40% rate and privatised all state industries and reduced inflation from 22 % to 5% inflation in 1983. She created free market capitalist economy for Britain. I will vote Conservative. Conservative party will win the general election in the UK.
