      Depend’s who you speak to, If it’s the youngster’s on YTS or the fall of British Industries that made millions unemployed, and also made way for the Chinese to takeover being the biggest Steel Manufacturing country in the world.
      All the Taxpayers money went to Etonians to take up Banking, while the ordinary young people had to work on a YTS for £27 a week .
      The woman was a monster with blood on her hands and was all for No Society, she was all for the Rich.

    She is so much more open with her personality in this interview. She is warm, communicative, expressive. You see the real Margaret. Later on, years of power really seemed to change her personality. Very serious, very forceful, verging on bitterness.

      I think its the exact opposite. She was trying to win votes and she must be humble. Her real personality is that Strong, Dominating women during her time as a PM. Doesnt mean its a bad thing. And I like her strong dominating personality. Britain needs a PM like her again. Kick those corrupted EU for good out Britain.

      He was massively more popular than she was. It was much said at the time that if it had been a presidential election, he would have won hands down. It was the wider Labour Party that was very unpopular, particularly the Bennite left as they were viewed as having wrecked Callaghan's government. It's worth noting that Margaret Thatcher never was hugely personally popular except among a group of devotees on the right. Even in her electoral zenith at the 1983 election, the Conservatives actually got 700,000 fewer votes than they did in 1979. It was the Labour Party who imploded and the SDP / Liberal Alliance unable to cut through the first past the post electoral system.

    Every loyal citizen of this country should be on their knees thanking Margaret Thatcher, and every modern woman who considers herself to be a Feminist too. This was a time that changed my notions as a young man of just what a woman could really achieve and how a woman could actually be the best man for the job in a job which was the most important one in the country. Her picture hangs in my hallway. She and Her Majesty are the two greatest women of my lifetime

    I certainly don't remember Callaghan being popular at that time. People were sick to death of his government. But he was certainly generous in defeat, unlike Lord Kinnock who really should have learned some humility from his numerous defeats.

    • @zeddeka
      @zeddeka 4 месяца назад

      You've pretty much explained it yourself. He himself was always personally popular - it was the wider Labour Party and in particular the Bennite left wing of the Labour Party who were disliked because they were viewed as wrecking his government.

    Quite a wake up, to realize it has been 40 years. When God's people have a streak of cowardice and failure amongst their leaders & chief rulers, HE oftentimes raises up an able & brave woman to leade us, and thereby shame the effeminate cowards - unto their repentance & amendment, hopefully, or, their relegation to political oblivion.
