Second point, I said nothing of the sort.
No but you're suggesting the correct response to a UK territory being invaded and occupied by another country is to invite them round for drinks and a chat. Bollocks to that, if it was me I'd expect an immediate military response. |

No, I'm saying discuss the issue before invasion and occupation. |

The US invaded Grenada in 83, and didn't even tell us. The Queen is head of State..would we have just let them get on with it, if it had been Australia? |

Well the US might to give them more players to chose from and a better chance of winning the Ryder Cup. |

She died from a stroke, an illness-wracked old woman. She was a grandmother and leaves behind two children. It seems deeply wrong to me that, whatever your opinion of her political agenda/ideology, or whatever she did during her life, people would celebrate a broken old woman's death. Personally I think she was the worst thing to happen to this country since the Luftwaffe, but that doesn't mean I can't respect the fact she was a human being and deserves to be treated as such
Falklands was necessary because attempts at diplomatic resolutions of the situation (which admittedly were not persued with a lot of vigour because Maggie saw the election looming) were made moot by the Argentines invading. A beligerrent foreign power invading sovereign, self-nominated British soil needs to be opposed.

You wouldn't have thought the Malvinas too high on anyone's list. The Japanese considered invading Australia in 1942... http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/68/He%27s_coming_South.jpgI'm sure the Australians have half an eye on Indonesia...massively overpopulated, world's largest Islamic state and in the grip of environmental meltdown. |

A minute's silence at the Manchester Derby tonight. Out of interest, those who have vehemently aired their dislike for Maggie on here and are attending the Franchise game, will you jeer a minute's silence if it's held tommorow?
Fuckin right I will. |

I'll give her the same respect she gave the average working man. I wouldn't jeer a minutes silence and I won't be out celebrating but I also won't forget the complete and utter fucking carnage she created and the misery and human suffering she was responsible for. A social re-engineering program where greed is good and money was status with no questions asked as to how it was acquired and how many people were fucked over to obtain it.

Her achievements?She made a tiny percentage of the population a lot better off and enabled a few people to buy a few shares,if you were lucky enough to have some spare cash.She didn't just "reduce the power of the Unions" she pretty much smashed them to pieces.That may have been an achievement to people who've never been a member of a union,but to others it was the signal of mass unemployment.People who had never been on strike felt angered enough to do so due to her policies-nurses,teachers etc.I also believe that she cultivated the over riding selfish society that I feel is more prevalent today.
