vikingTON Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Yeah OK, I'm having a "good greet". My point, put in more simple terms, is that it's quite hypocritical for those that identify with the far left in society to scream and shout about what a monster Thatcher was. Which members of the 'far left' celebrating in the UK associate with Stalin? Be specific. The fact of the matter is that you've built a straw man in order wring your hands regarding a 'hypocrisy' that doesn't exist. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pesadilla Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 The fact of the matter is that you've built a straw man in order wring your hands regarding a 'hypocrisy' that doesn't exist. There are plenty far left individuals on plenty media outlets willing to opine on Thatchers death. I'm not "hand wringing" about anything. I disagree with people celebrating someones death. It's distinctly undignified. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree with people celebrating someones death. It's distinctly undignified. Undignified perhaps but it says more about the ogre herself that ordinary folk feel the need to celebrate her death. Her tenure pretty much reeked of 'doing it wrong'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ad Lib Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 It's instructive that emerging economies such as Brazil have in fact scaled back their rail services rather than building more. The money could have been spent elsewhere, I think the attachment to the railways is an emotional one, although this might be changing given that some folk in south east of England spend a quarter of their income on their season ticket.... It depends really. Rail can be a very efficient way of transporting high volumes of bulky and or heavy materials over long distances on land relatively efficiently. As a means of passenger transport, however, it's only really helpful if it is servicing places designed to cope with high volume traffic and as an outright alternative to other forms of higher emissions transport. The South East is simply too cramped to cope with that, in terms of its layout of major towns and the City of London. Our terrain isn't even as naturally suited to rail travel as the German and the French, who often have large, quite flat, and largely unpopulated rural areas between major cities. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wirez Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Now we have the good voice of reason Mr Tony Blair lecturing people on how to behave regarding Thatcher's death. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-22080238 War-mongering p***k! Hope he chokes on his own sanctimonious bile... This film just shows just a tiny part of what Thatcher's policies done to ordinary working people 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roseyposey Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 You say yourself that you weren't around then, so your opinion means nowt. I was affected by her policies and actions and I can assure you that no workers up here were looking to have their mines, steel works, shipyards etc, etc closed so they could avoid work. I am not a man driven by hate but by God was I happy when I learned of her demise. An evil woman, who is probably pissing off everyone else in Hell right now. For once the Rose and Boness boys can stand side by side and agree on something certainly put a smile on my face yesterday when I learned the evil cow was gone at last 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
