There are some vile people around, and some nasty people - and of course some real cunts. Whatever the case, no one can argue that Maggie was anything other than a good leader, and a different breed from the spineless, self-serving arseholes who claim expenses these days. To blame, as some do, Mrs Thatcher for all of today's problems rather ignores the fact that there were over 13 years during which Labour could have done numerous things - other than completely squander the country's resources, self off our gold at the lowest market price for two decades, raid the pension funds, grant licences to mobile operators to gain billions etc. It all meant that by the time the credit crunch arrived, we were fucking skint; that's a rather different picture from 1997 when Blair inherited a golden situation.
As for representing Britain in the best possible way, Mrs T was one of the best. It's a sad fact that Blair has put most effort in representing himself, after leaving office. Brown was pointless, Miliband is a dud, None of them have the balls to do the job. As for this week's display by the horrendous Glenda Jackson, words fail me.
A Real Stateswoman
