Mrs Thatcher

I blogged yesterday about Mrs T, I find it very sad that some have found the need to demonstrate their hatred in the press and on some streets, it is the left that are the most venomous, I lived through the 80's had to watch Scargill bring down the unions, I was sick to death watching the strikes happening all round me, we needed someone to sort the mayhem out and she did it, the coal industry in all honesty was loosing money hand over fist so  it was not financially viable, so just what did the NUM expect, as with so many Unions who spent their time disrupting industry with lightening strikes that benefited no one let alone the men, the union barons seemed to think they were untouchable they had been left alone by the Labour government ending in the winter of discontent, and it has to be asked who else would have gone and taken back the Falklands back from Argentina?, no one!, there was no one else who had the bottle, when she became the PM we were the laughing stock of the World, she turned that round and made us a major player, I accept that not every one feels any compassion to her and her family but death comes to us all and it is a requirement of all to show a little respect to her and her family, having placards that say "death to the bitch" is not an acceptable situation, it will do us no good in the world for other countries to see some in this country showing total disrespect to a former world leader, some I notice are so young as to have no idea as to what life was like before and after her term of office, so to show such disrespect by the young is not acceptable, if you have no experience of the event you should keep quiet!.
