my opinion of her is that she was a power hungry tyrant who broke the backs of the british workers, shutting down coal mines,steel works and generaly ignoring the wishes of the manual workers in her quest to create more wealth for those at the top of the ladder, this is evident in tv dramas of the early 80,s like alan bleasdales '' boys from the blackstuff'' showing how those at the bottom of the social scale were left in desperation unable to provide for their families or even to find work she was saved by the outbreak of war against argentina where victory guaranteed her another term in office. in my mind she gave us victorian values alright, creating a 2 tear system of those who had it all and those who had it taken from them and were left with nothing, just seen a programme comemorating the end of the falklands war and them speaking of her in glowing terms, have they lost their memories of what life was really like for so many living under her tyrany? whats your opinion her?
