Thatcher being on the £50 note will never happen because people will lose their siht.
These are the same non-thinking idiots who blame Thatcher for the closure of the pits (Labour closed more) and the Community Charge (a significantly fairer way of collecting local taxes than the Council Tax), plus pretty much everything else that has happened in the past 27 years since she lost power.

“Ask people in the United Kingdom when they last used a £50 note, the highest sterling denomination, and the most common answer is to pay a builder or plumber,” he said in a paper calling for its abolition. “The incentive is tax evasion.“ //
How appropriate that Mrs T is in the reckoning.
