Why can so few people manage an intelligent, balanced response when politics are mentioned?
She WAS an evil bitch. But as somebody else posted was needed at the time after the ballsup the labour government before her made. Her biggest problem was that the British public decided to leave her in power far too long and she took liberties with her power.
At least she had bigger balls than Blair on the world stage and the evil crap she pulled was very up front and obvious. The amount of nasty legislation and other crap Blair has managed behind the scenes during his over-long stint is insane.
On balance for every inexcusable nasty piece of crap she pulled she managed 2 or 3 things the country badly needed. For those around at the time with an IQ large enough to realise what was actually happening the truth of Thatcher is that she didn't ruin the country, nor was she totally good for it. As is the case with many things, the truth lies somewhere in between.
