The miners had it coming as well, I used to live in a mining town and knew many miners, they regulary boasted about how much they were paid for doing so little,night shift often involved taking your alarm clock!!

The thing I dont like about subsidies is they come out of tax payers pocket so its false economy, I`d love it if I recieved a fat cheque every month I did not meet sales targets....but that aint gonna happen:thumbdown:

As long it isnt me then who cares, that is what your saying Rotor.
We helped our selves and worked very hard and acheived at a young age, but then disaster struck and who is there to help you. Things happen that are no fault of your own you have no control of the situation.

I agree bill a fantastic resorce that is still there and whole area of the country still in a mess because of the closure of the mining industry.
Both my grandfathers were miners and worked before and after the union, there lives were not good they worked very long hours for little pay and were working being exploted.
How many of us dont like the explotation of the asian workers in China and the far east, well that is how the UK was before the unions, would you want to go back to that I doubt it very much.
Maggie and her gang caused the problems that are in the UK by making them selves very rich, what did her son do to become a Lord or have the wealth he has or has had ?
Did he do an honest days work for a honest days pay I doubt it.
Dont be nieve, they are a very powerful crew and the common man has no chance in world they live in
And on the side of Blair and Brown and there crew well they all attendend the same meetings and drink from the same cup, who does Blair work for now JP Morgan is one of them and they are owned by Rothchilds who employs Norman Lamont for one, did before he became chancelor and they do now. so they are really all the same helping the rich get richer.

Bil, old chap, look at the post count before you bother to respond.

Matt, have you no recollection of Thatcher being forced out before even more damage was done? She came in on a disaster and went out on one.

Post #35 says it all. Read Andrew Marr ‘A History of Modern Britain’ if your memory is that bad…

Re: Mark Thatcher in Spain
 

But thats the thing we humans do.
Forget things if they are bad.

Re: Mark Thatcher in Spain
 

1990 she left office, and some people are still blaming the woes of the UK on her, jeez, some people just cant let go can they!?


The unions were a bad thing, set up for the right reasons but as the adage goes, power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely.

The union bosses had this country by the balls, as the winter of discontent showed, and labour, yes labour, in all their years in power have simply shown that they are as corrupt as any other politician.

At least Maggie never took us in to a new era of terror by taking us into an illegal war and equally illegal occupation, and now the prick has been made peace envoy, what a lucky chain of events for a war monger eh? Lucky he converted to Catholicism eh?

Re: Mark Thatcher in Spain
 

No she took us to war in the Falklands and gave us 17.5 percent mortgage interest rates
And set the army into the desert to rescue her wayward son
And she took the milk of the little kids in the early 70, that drink of milk, was the the only sustiance some kids had all day, My mum worked in a school in an ordinary town and some of the kids that was a big park of there daily needs.
Your not old enough to know what she did and her currupt government.
In 1983 a product called aspertaine was introduced, I think you need to see what that goverment introduced the the general public to control us.

Re: Mark Thatcher in Spain
 

Amen. Even more corrupt than Labour.

As for that sh*t sucker Blair taking us into Iraq, the Tory leader (after it was crystal clear that we had gone in on a lie, and there were no WMDs) when asked what he would have done, said that he would have still followed Bush into Iraq.

The Tories were supposed to be the opposition, but they let us down.

Couldn't even do that.

Re: Mark Thatcher in Spain
 

corruption has reached new heights under the present labour gov, and we are only just seeing the start of it, you wait until Gordon Browns dirty little secret
is released, then you will all be singing to a different tune!


what has a mortgage rise got to do with the mass slaughter of so many innocent Iraqis? The rape of their country by the west? The ongoing occupation and unsettling effect that is causing among young impressionable Arabs?

Re: Mark Thatcher in Spain
 

No bil you are right the thing is war makes there rich friends richer. Who manufactures the arms ? . The rich !! I rest my case.

Re: Mark Thatcher in Spain
 

and who has benefited the most?


Labour.



(this is fun)

Re: Mark Thatcher in Spain
 

Look in to the secrets of Norman Lamont and then weep.
I dont believe we have ever had a socialist party not since John Smith died
They have always been blue in a red coat.
My son on law is a Tory Minister and he said at the time of the first labout government there polices are ours.
