Tambo...there may be now, but there wasn't during the peak of unemployment during the 1980's, and that is the period that she was in power.
Unemployment reached 3 million, or 12.5% of the workforce by January 1982.
As well as this high rate of unemployment, her fiscal policies resulted in mortgage rates of 17% in the early 80's !....I know as my monthly mortgage payments resulted in nearly 60% of my take home pay.
But all these consequences are carefully forgotten about by her supporters, for obvious reasons.

About time Mrs Thatcher was honoured properly.
I see we have drifted off into an anti Thatcher rant driven by the usual cabal and their squinted viewpoints. Soooo when people bought their own homes, you know homes that they were living in, this caused a housing shortage? How? Did the houses suddenly disappear or fall down? Off course the floods of immigrants have nothing to do with a chronic house shortage, that strangely only manifested itself during the years after Mrs T. left office. Once the lie is told and believed it needs a lot of medicine to flush the poison. And still they come. Off course the ones who bleat about house shortages, school overcrowding, low wages due to the plentiful supply of black economy labour, the struggle to cope at G.Ps and Hospitals, and the break down in law and order still maintain that all who wish must be allowed to enter the UK. Whilst they blame Mrs Thatcher for their woes they will never recover. She is still doing a great job for Britain by keeping them pre-occupied with a hate that keeps them focused not only on the wrong answers but the wrong questions too.

Why argue about semantics, it's often referred to as both the Falklands conflict and Falklands war equally? And although terrible for all involved the casualties on both side did not amount to what we usually think of as all out war. Are those who blame this all at MT's door saying we should have abandoned the British to the Argentinians?
