Hooray,Maggie Lives Again !
I must admit my downbeat thoughts about Mrs.'Frosty Knickers' May's perceived dull personality and probable lacklustre performance in the Commons have been completely bowled away by her excellent performance in her first PM Questions yesterday. I thought we would never see the likes of Maggie again !
Hallelujah,there is a God !Rah Rah!.gif
I might even renew my Tory party membership ......,well,maybe.......

Re: Hooray,Maggie Lives Again !
I am pleased with most of her appointments in the cabinet government at least she put the go people in power instead of the creeps around the house she seems to know what she is doing I watched her yesterday and I don't think she is one to suffer fools? jp

Re: Hooray,Maggie Lives Again !
As you will be aware I cannot share your joy, for millions of people especially in the North of England Margaret Hilda Thatcher was an evil witch. The times have changed and the people have changed, all over the Western world there is a growing mistrust and rebellion against the Establishment and politicians in general. The days of Maggie are gone.
Official papers from her time on office are now being released showing how she plotted and schemed with the Gulf States to arrange massive kickbacks from contracts for her idiot son, Mark.
Many of the papers are still secret and said to be too sensitive for release, an attempt to cover up just how corrupt she was.
As for Mrs May she was the best of a bad bunch but only time will tell.

Re: Hooray,Maggie Lives Again !
Maggie did help me when my own working class people stopped my unemployment Benefit, because I signed on at the Pool in Liverpool, got a note to prove it too. on the day they told me to sign on in Bolton, and I did tell them before hand, "You do as I say" they told me when I explained that Bolton does not have any ships. so No Unemployment pay, I had a mortgage and two young lads on my own.]
Maggie sorted them out, They complained that they nearly lost their jobs" I told them they should have done, then they would know what it is like on this side of the counter.
I still have the letter off Maggie telling me that they also had to pay back what they owed me.
Thanks Maggie. No thanks to my fellow working class employees at the DHSS.
Cheers
Brian
PS . Theresa May wiped the floor with that Commie Pinko Wierdo,
and that other bum Owen Smith is a `Bliar wanna Be`, He said "i AM PROUD TO BE A EUROPEAN," Not to be Welsh or British, so why doesnt the bum go and live in Europe land.?

Re: Hooray,Maggie Lives Again !
One of the current 'Western World', problems is the 'professional politician' many of whom are there in safe seats and see it as a job for life with good persk to match.
We are in desperate need of a new brteed of poli who put the nation first. I hope this lady may be one of them.


Happy daze John in Oz.

Sadly that is not the nature of the beast."Put the nation first? ! Isn't that what they call an oxymoron or something ? Research,and a century or two of history has shown that politicians use their intended privelege to serve their public as an opportunity to either further their own position and standing,or to benefit their own financial position,and in many cases both.But I don't have to say that.Everyone knows. They even joke about it amongst themselves about how stupid we are!
We electorate are an inconvenience to be tolerated as a tool for their own intents,and ignored and despised(David Cameron and the 'plebgate' MP Andrew Mitchell are two recent blatant examples of that).Coffee & News.gif
