She didn't have sex with Reagan to create the right wing human supreme.
>>56535562
Not a great deal, desu.
However, she was a heartless fuckbag.
She royally screwed over Yorkshire and Welsh miners.
Yes the pits needed to close (they were fucked and cost government money to run), but she destroyed entire communities overnight.
She should have put in an infrastructure and alternative jobs before pulling the plug.
As someone who lived in West Yorkshire, you can still feel the effects 30 years on.
Other than that, nowt!
I wanted to ask a brit anon to tell me about why this song exists

What is the context?
>>56539544
Leftist morons whining about Thatcher... still.
She is very polarising for the reasons I said above.
She really turned the country round, but she only did it by being ruthless. Which works, sometimes.
This nob (Frank Turner) believes that Thatcherite politics are responsible for societal breakdown. In the lyrics he says that she didn't believe there was a society anyway.
Actually, the opposite is true, and that for a society to breath, the bad flesh has to be cut away.
He blames her for societal ills, rather than blaming the people that are robbing, smoking crack, stealing shit and killing each other. Because it couldn't be a choice... no no - better blame Thatcher.

>create alternative jobs for 80000 rioting communist miners who don't want any other job than >muh pits and have no skills other than mining coal.
Sounds like an interesting plan, what did you have in mind?
The real question is what did she do that was so great. The answer: a lot.
>>56540190
Aye, and there's the rub.
I'm not sure!
To be fair to the miners, the huge majority were not commies - they were led into that shitstorm by the union bosses - who should, every one of them, be put against a fucking wall. Especially that cunt scargill.
Vast majority wanted to keep their jobs, and saw no other way, especially when promised the goldengoose by the fucking unions.
No, not sure what would have worked p wholesale removal to other parts of the country? Mandatory re-training (but as what?).
No, it was a clusterfuck.
And I do know that what happened was not good in any way, and that there had to have been a better way.
Seriously, google any of the mining towns - Fitzwilliam, Hemsworth (where I lived for a while), Grimethorp, Wath upon Dearne... fuck me, they are still bleak desolate places.

she stopped school milk
I guess people are too young or forgetful to remember the poll tax fiasco.
>>56540014
what about all the paedophiles she protected?!
>>56540014
What is this "generation raised on welfare" who are, according to him rich now?
>>56540750
Hey, what she did in her spare time, is no concern of mine.
>>56535562
develop 2 x chromosomes
>>56540695
Thatcher Thatcher, milk snatcher.
I had school milk as a kid.
All of it subsidised by the government. And all of it owned by Co-Op dairies, who paid millions in party donations to the Labour party, who were commies at the time (think Corbyn, but old school).
No fucking wonder she stopped it.
And look, no one has died of calcium definciency.
>>56540902
It isn't. They aren't... that's the issue.
She made social mobility more easy, by allowing people to own their own homes, etc.
He is exaggerating, that Tories are somehow selfish.
Leftist fantasists (see also billy fucking bragg, and a million others)
>>56535562
She's a women
>>56535562
She died and now Britain is ruled by keks. Sad to say this woman has more balls than 90% of men in Britain.
>>56535562
she dindu nuffin wrong. best British PM of the 20th century. Churchill was a great speaker but he fucked up the UK. He's seriously overrated.

Let me tell you a story:
>Once upon a time there were two companies, British Steal and British Coal. We'll start with British Coal, in the post war years there was some pretty nasty inflation going on. So it was decided by the government of the day that they would cut Coal miners wages to get it under control. However the mean old National Coal Miners Union didn't like the idea of having their wages capped, and so went on strike. Since most of Britain power at the time came from coal the strike of the miners lead to roiling black outs, a three day week, and something called "The Winter of Discontent". Needless to say the electorate weren't very happy about all of this and voted Callaghan out at the next GE. So at this point it was pretty clear that the NUM had managed to subvert the democratic process, cripple a nation and oust a government. All because they wanted a little larger pay check.
>At the next GE our hero, the Glorious Iron Lady, came to power. She started stockpiling coal to avoid the fate of the previous government, and restricted trade unions (they had to hold an open ballot amongst all members to call a strike). This is widely seen as "breaking the backs of the unions".
>The story of British Steal Corporation is pretty similar, but starts a little later. British Steal was making a loss, a huge loss, it was untenable for it to remain a nationalised industry. So The Iron Lady privatised, the new owners demanded that they modernise immediately so that they could compete with the emerging markets in the far east and turn a profit.
>The moral of the story here is: Avarice is bad
Anyway fast-forward 30/40 years and these fucks still complain about her.
>>56535562
She tried to save the Bongs from themselves.
I actually loved how venomous she was towards feminists.
>>56535562
>muh milk
>muh mines
>muh poll tax
Literally nothing.
UK is full of worthless, lazy, leftist shitheads. She tried to give that worthless island some fucking steel in it's spine but their collective pussies got in the way.
>>56535562
She didn't go for a shit when the IRA bombed her hotel bathroom in 1984.
