I mark you 'Bloody Well Right' there.

Mind you, it was the Super tramp who won the 79 election that went on to commit the industrial Crime of the Century

Still, I suppose I've always been a bit of a Dreamer

We've had a bottle of champagne chilling for the last 15 years for such a day (not the same one obviously). Thoughts with the miners, lost communities, lost livelihoods, lost lives through her policies. Why she hated the working class, we can only imagine, treated it with contempt or was patronising of it. Maybe some more of the real truth will now come out.

BBC typically showing its right wing bias today, a full reminder that it is firmly part of the establishment.

Really! so why is it Margaret Thatcher said, "I have fought three elections against the BBC and don't want to fight another against it."

Any excuse to have a go at the BBC. Anything to keep it on track with that kind of pressure. She divided a nation, where did you get the sense of that today from the BBC? Absolutely no where.

Perhaps the Beeb are now getting their own back. As I write this "Have I Got A Bit More News For You" is having a field day rubbishing Iain Duncan Smith, George Osborne, Boris Johnson and even poor old Ann Widdecombe.

Nothing derogatory aimed at Labour thus far but I'll keep you posted.

Now this is just getting confusing. I was speaking to some friends from Belfast the other day, and the loyalist ones said it was republican biased, and the republican ones reckon loyalist. :/

I feel a letter to points of view brewing...
