Interesting Maggie Thatcher speech...

Read the transcript of this session of Parliament...

It is interesting how what went on in the UK in 1990 is going on here now...

UB40's anti -Thatcher song (1980).. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eD7tKW2b58A
From the land of shadows
Comes a dreadful sight
Lady with the marble smile
Spirit of the night
See the scourge of innocence
Swinging in her hand
Hear the silent suffering
That echoes through the land

From the tombs of ignorance
Of hate and greed and lies
Through the smoke of sacrifice
Watch her figure rise
The sick the poor the old
Basking in her radiance
Men of blood and gold

In her bloody footsteps
Speculators prance
Men of dreams are praying
For that second chance
Round her vacant features
Gilded serpents dance
Her tree of evil knowledge
Sprouts a special branch

Madam Medusa
Madam Medusa
Madam Medusa

Knock her right down
And then she bounce right back
Knock her right down
And then she bounce right back
She gone off her head
We've got to shoot her dead
She gone off her head
We've got to shoot her dead
Run for your life before she eat you alive
Run for your life before she eat you alive
Move out of the way 'cause you're blocking out the day
Move out of the way 'cause you're blocking out the day

There were loads of anti-Maggie songs, no doubt. Somewhere at home I still have an album released to protest the poll tax (not that I supported it one way or another -- I just liked a couple of the songs on it).

Love her or hate her, Maggie was a political heavyweight back in her day. She certainly didn't waste her time in office.
