19.25 Stina Dabrowski: "You are very good at getting me away from my questions" Thatcher: "No! I am good at making you formulate your question properly"
As someone who wholeheartedly disagrees with Ms Thatcher on many of her views and policies, I must tip my hat. They don't call her the Iron Lady for nothing. I can respect her as a person. The way she picked off her opponents one by one, taking them out back to the firing squad, the way she outlasted the trade unions. That took balls, balls of steel. She set the bar for females in politics and no one has matched her since. The fact that people compare Clinton and Gillard to her is an insult. These women play the 'sexism card' every opportunity they had. Ms Thatcher wasn't that, she didn't hide behind the word 'misogyny', she stood up and grabbed the political landscape by the balls. She had a job to do and she didn't waste time.
Wrong. Firstly she set the bar for every politician. Then misogyny and sexism IS a huge problem for women. Mentioning and criticising it is not only perfectly fine but even more necessary. You cannot solve a problem without addressing it.
My family hated her with a passion... I'm grown up now and have my own opinions. I admire the lady so unbelievably much. She didn't want bad for this country.. can you hold your hand up and say you could of done the job she did.. she's an inspiration to women and the British people.. still think she could of done things differently.. but we can all say that
10:09 “Socialists don’t like people to do things for themselves. Socialists like to get people dependent on the state. You’ll never build a great society that way”. Margaret Thatcher. What a great thinker.
She was my role model when I was young. I was born into a working class family on a poor council estate, today I am Chief Operating Officer for a £billion group of companies. Baroness Thatcher was incomparable. We will probably never see anyone like her again given the bunch of spineless cry babies we seem to have raised in the UK over the last 25 years.
I love how she handled all those questions, especially the last one, very firm. She was one of Earth's brightest creations. May she be resting in peace.
Pasam......you are woefully uneducated on the history of British colonialism. Trying to compare Hitler to the British is just pure insanity or ignorance. Almost every country colonised by Britain was better for it because Democratic institutions were introduced and capitalism. I don't have enough time just now to educate you but if you can suppress your ignorant hostility of Britain you may learn something but I won't get my hopes up.
Pasam......the victory in the Battle of Britain was the turning point in ww2. The loss of the Luftwaffe against the Royal Air force was a devastating blow against the Nazi's.....A famous piece of heroism by the British and brilliant ingenuity to rally as a nation and produce all those brilliant aircraft in incredibly short time. A great feat. But you seem like a rather prejudiced, Britain hating kind of dude. Relax, read a history book and take a sleeping pill.
As an American, I long for a leader with such confidence and spine to grace our country. If we had more leaders like her things would be much better instead of the direction we are going now.
Every heard of Ron Paul? He ran for President in US, there the US people have a leader that will bring your country to what it should be. Make it strong.
bigtom12101989 I can imagine it was hard for him to be elected since most media shut him out and didn't show his name, they cut him off while on live TV. They are afraid of him, because he is such a powerful person. He speaks for and with people. If I was a US citizen I would vote for him, no doubt. I just hope he runs for president again. And I hope people will help him, by sharing his run on social media and so on.
NickoSupra He won't run again unfortunately. His son Rand has similar views and is currently a US senator, so good news there. Missed opportunity on the part of America, not electing Ron Paul.
Margaret Thatcher comes across as a thoughtful, intelligent, articulate & quite witty (in a dry kind of way) person. I find her example encouraging to those of us who were barely alive when she was prime minister based on the fact that she was self-made. The working class however may think otherwise and I don't blame them. Nevertheless Rip to a great woman.
Such a professional Maggie.. The interview host lady is weird as fuck.. What a question to ask a lady who was a prime minister of Great Britain to stand up and jump at the age of 70+ years old straight after an intense interview. We need more strong minded people like Margaret in this world. Such an inspirational woman.
nwlman "the 80s were a golden era for the UK under Thatcher"??? Were you THERE??? All she did was guarantee she bought out any socialist sense in the working class!! Privatised national industry, BUYING their loyalty and vote (I was there at British Gas when it was privatised and it turned Labour-voting generations into SELF-ish, share-holding capitalists in 2 years, as who would vote against her if they would then possibly lose their investment in the shares??). AND THAT DOESN'T EVEN TOUCH ON THE COMMUNITIES TORN APART BY THE MINERS STRIKE.... THE BITCH IS DEAD, MAY SHE SUFFER IN DEATH AS SHE MADE OTHERS SUFFER IN LIFE.
Knappa22 Today's housing crisis has absolutely nothing to with Mrs T! For one she's not been in power since 1990!!!! Second, our housing crisis is due to the influx of millions of people from abroad!!!!
Excellent interview. Baroness Thatcher at her upmost best. She believed in Britain and with her determination, and her convictions, she will be remembered as Britain's finest. rest in peace
Baroness Thatcher, what an extraordinary woman! I agree with her in some matters and in many others I do not. But what a sheer force of will and character she is!
I cannot think of a single politician today that would handle a media person as well as Thatcher. I could almost sense the Swede beginning to fall apart like an overcooked Kroppkaka.
She was as masterful in this interview as she was in service of her people--her government rolled back state control and perpetually constricting socialism--not an easy thing to do. Her ideas and policies were clear and correct. We see the US slouching toward state control, and we can only pray that a leader like MT will emerge to lead the way in a completely opposite direction, but no such leader is on the horizon. It is easier to sell vice than virtue, and sadly the vices of sloth and envy are being sold by the dependency party and these sins are eagerly and unwittingly lapped up by many people who have traded their votes for subsistence living. Masterful interview---wonderful to behold.
Just love how Mrs Thatcher's articulated, intellectual answers with nothing but FACTS & a lil bit of SOH - totally blew the interviewer AWAY! How we could be doing with her now... 💯
Your RUclips channel is such a joy to have! It's a bit disheartening to realize just how rare it is to have a figure this towering in history. And yet, as always, she's truly inspiring and fascinating.
I used to detest Maggie Thatcher but now I realize that she did more to help the poor out of poverty than all socialists and liberals and leftists put together. Socialism, communism, liberalism, leftism, whatever you call it, makes everyone poorer except politicians and dictators and civil servants and government apparatchiks. Neil Kinnock admitted that Thatcher had made the poor richer than ever and helped more people into the middle class than ever before. That's why Tony Blair adopted New Labour which decided to punish working class Brits who abandoned socialism by replacing us with mass immigration.
Same man. I'm from Yorkshire, so I believed the lies that were put out by my predecessors. She might've made mistakes, but she cared more for this country than almost anyone in politics since Churchill. People who think otherwise should read economical and social reports for the period she was in charge, and not labour party reports.
It's a sign of character and intelligence to come out of dogma and recognize past mistakes. Inspiring words from you BountyHunter7520 and ochuspokus Cheers for that.
+BountyHunter7520 It worries me that so many people think communism implies a corrupt dictator, or a dictator at all, and why you think it would make anybody richer is pretty strange considering the core concepts of both communism and socialism. Seriously, how can you possibly talk about bad money distribution when comparing it to capitalism! Don't get me wrong I'm not some sort of loud, anti-establishment twat but the things your saying seem to be worryingly common.
Thatcher was hated by the elites at the BBC and old Tories because she helped the poor. Thatcher tried to most to bring down the class system and this is why the BBC and other elites hated her still to this day.
Rave Biscuits The core concepts of both communism and socialism are BIGGER GOVERNMENT and more jobs for government civil servants and more centralized planning. The people get nothing but the crumbs unless they become part of the government themselves (which is difficult if they don't know the right people usually through family or going to the right school.
it's the only proper reaction to such a topic. and that reporter was very close to saying "hey well socialism wasnt THAT bad, right?". she should have slapped her for even asking something like that.
Just wanted to pay my highest of honors to this magnificent woman. What an intelligent way to run politics and to understand Economics , and to top it all off her standpoint on the aggression on Bosnia was spot on from the very beginning. Even thought the weak politics of Europe at the time cost us multiple genocides I salute this brave and intelligent Politician alike which has not been seen afterwards. Once more I thank this channel for this collection of her videos which I learnt from immensely. Just hope that one day perhaps we will learn from hear and implement her solutions into our politics. Greetings from the free Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Rule Brittania ! :)
"The way you execute power must come from strongly held principles, translated into practical policy and then acted upon". Its a pretty short but accurate assessment of how to be a great leader. I wonder how many politicians these days could define what holding power should look like so well.
I watch this interview fom time to time, I thinks it's fabulous. Lady Thatcher is probably the most beautiful politician I've ever seen. Incomparable elegance of the higest, What a lady. I'm at a loss for words to describe the way she conveys herself. I've always admired her very very much. ' I make giant leaps not little jumps in studios'. God Bless you Baroness Thatcher. '
As a kid, I was force fed left-wing teachings from school at an early age so I was forced to hate Thatcher but I'm 17 now and as I've been watching some of these videos of her and viewing her achievements, my views have changed and I think she was a great PM. I live in the North so she's not so popular here but I think after the chaos Labour and the trade unions left Britain in the late 70s, she did an impressive job. Also, great uploads thatcheritescot!
I just need to say that if you like her or not maggi had style class and bigger balls that anyone that has set foot in number ten clearly a sophisticated lady that knew the score long live her legacy ... timeless and amazing is what she was .
Thanks for these videos. Thatcheritescot. I enjoy watching a bit of the Thatch, every now and again ... Really enjoyed this one, especially her refusing to carry out that "jump" at the end. How verily ridiculous!
Maggie's wit at the end of that interview made me laugh out loud 🤣 detractors of the lady like to tell us she had no sense of humour, this obviously wasn't true, she was humourous in her own way
Louis Evan Not at all, I am happy and live in a meadow by the river where a tree sits upon a knoll. I am just saying what millions of others feel, does the truth about that filthy cow hurt you to the quick.
This is the best One Act drama I've seen. It's woman against woman. Passive aggression (the interviewer) versus Honest aggression (Thatcher) I side with the honest.
This woman had bigger balls than any politician I've ever seen. I have a picture of Mrs. Thatcher and President Reagan in my home, and it won't be coming down any time soon.
God bless you Maggie a woman with Great British back bone unlike many in this nation today who would surrender to the weakest forces of socialism & injustice.
This interviewer comes across as unprofessional in constantly interrupting Thatcher. If you think they should stop talking at some point, it's much better just to let them speak as much as they want and then edit it down for time.
Juan Oh really? How do you square that opinion with the fact that the highest rates of domestic violence are found among lesbian couples? Anecdotal evidence isn't compelling. Men and women are both equally prone to violence, it's just that men have the natural ability and means to inflict more damage. And the premise, in the context of political leadership, is even more absurd. There is no evidence that female heads of state are less prone to committing to violent conflict.
MrChorizokiller I didn't say there was more evidence. I just said my current impression of things, I'm not much knowledgeable of this. But remember that marvin gaye song “what's going on”, it says: “father, father, we don't need to escalate” - men seem to have an ambition to conquer and compete. Look at sports, it seems to me men are more competitive, the vast majority of people cheering aggressively for soccer teams here in brazil are men. And they fight all the time. Women tend to not care so much about that, often women care about settling things down. I don't know, it's an impression and it's obvious not just me that have it. But I could be wrong, there could be other explanations for it, as you mentioned yourself one.
That's not proof of women being innately more peaceful, there are other ways of being aggressive. Some of the most hawkish leaders have been, and are, women - take a look at Hillary Clinton.
I am from her hometown and i will say that the uk went into a state of terminal decline the moment she left office and it will never ever recover unless someone of the same calibre enters office.
A Very good interviewer, her job was to get reactions and she got them. the world is run by corporations, politicians are paid well to perform to the script. It was nice to see Margaret at the end with a sense of humor.
Thatcher knew how to handle the media/press properly. Tough, stern, yet cool, very well prepared and informed, without any bombast or hyperbole. Moreover, she speaks and illustrates her ideas with great clarity. Current leaders and heads of state ought to take heed.

Stina Dabrowski: "You are very good at getting me away from my questions"
Thatcher: "No! I am good at making you formulate your question properly"
The way she speaks shows power, it's calm but not weak, It's like tide, very slow but very strong.
Perfect description 👌🏻
The lady does NOT "jump"
The lady STANDS! Bravo.

Wrong. Firstly she set the bar for every politician. Then misogyny and sexism IS a huge problem for women. Mentioning and criticising it is not only perfectly fine but even more necessary.
You cannot solve a problem without addressing it.
You made it personal - she would find that amusing.

This is one of my favourite interviews with The Iron Lady. Absolutely superb, strong and principled interview.
Wow, Thatcher was amazing, not only to resist and fight off the evils of socialism but also to fight off the evils of so called "journalism".
It was Margaret Thatcher who once said,
"You can vote yourself into Socialism, but you have to shoot your way out of it."
Many people in Britain hated her at the time I always grew up thinking she was bad but looking back and researching she was a very clever moral leader
I totally agree just stated that very thing.. I wouldn't of wanted to do her job
Thatcher was a real leader that inspires people even here in the United States. Much respect.

Very friendly with pederasts and pedophiles too. She even got one or two knighted.Check out our press.

It's the blonde woman from Abba isn't it?

Science in her background. We need more politicians who have a bend in science or the arts. Law and business pffft. God bless Mrs. Thatcher
ablg234 awesome! I didn't know she was a scientist. Women are going to take over the political sphere I hope.
'we need more politicians' _do we?_

,I think the intervjuer does a great job. And thatcher is by far the most right-brained woman i have ever seen. Mutcho interesante
That's what I thought!! Is there some mistranslation I'm missing?!
I get teary eyed watching this. What a magnificent woman.
When she allowed council tenants to buy their homes she lifted many out of poverty the 80s were a golden era for the UK under Thatcher.
Totally Totally agree well said

"Jump up in the air."
Normal Person: "How high?"
Thatcher: "I shouldn't dream of doing that, why should I?"
Awesome :)
I wouldn't do a fucking jump just because an interviewer asks, I see no point.
I know that had me in giggles for ages... What was she thinking, she wasn't interviewing little and large?
My favorite part of the whole interview.
Whenever I watch Thatcher I always feel like I've just personally had a bollocking, even if I agreed with what she said.
17:53 - Wow that stare could cut through anything!
That's the famous Thatcher-stare. Check it out, when she talked about socialism, communism, nazism and those kind totalitarian ideologies.
it's the only proper reaction to such a topic. and that reporter was very close to saying "hey well socialism wasnt THAT bad, right?". she should have slapped her for even asking something like that.
It's a bit panto, in my opinion. I don't disagree with her, but she knew her audience liked her stating things so forcefully
Omg it felt so cold and it burnt at the same time.
"We have something called equity and fairness. You wouldn't understand that in Sweden." Ha ha ha ha. It's so blunt and condescending.
Actually she said that Swedes would understand it, but Russians for example could not.
Just wanted to pay my highest of honors to this magnificent woman. What an intelligent way to run politics and to understand Economics , and to top it all off her standpoint on the aggression on Bosnia was spot on from the very beginning.

one of my favorite interviews of Thatcher. She was truly made of iron and she governed the same way. A true leader she was.
Another fine contribution, TS. I miss her so darn much.
Amazing human being. If only we had more like her today
Damn this woman had more fire in the belly than the Queen Mary!
She was amazing! I loved it when she said, "And the will of an English woman!" and did a nod after after she said it.
Me too! You can also see her do a little smirk right before she says it. You can tell when the line comes to her! So brilliant!
Holy hell that was a strong interview.

Surely you mean bastard thatcher, the degenerate female with a cock between her legs who took it up the arse from reagan.
tom conti Aren't you a bitter old sheep?
Louis Evan
Not at all, I am happy and live in a meadow by the river where a tree sits upon a knoll. I am just saying what millions of others feel, does the truth about that filthy cow hurt you to the quick.
tom conti Well as long as you are happy, sheep.
No, they don 't exactly hurt me but it's your words, little too harsh. Oh well.
Louis Evan
More is deserved.
This is the best One Act drama I've seen. It's woman against woman. Passive aggression (the interviewer) versus Honest aggression (Thatcher)
I side with the honest.
Love this!
The last 3 mins sums up why I love Thatcher
This woman had bigger balls than any politician I've ever seen. I have a picture of Mrs. Thatcher and President Reagan in my home, and it won't be coming down any time soon.
Women don’t need male genitals to be courageous and determined.
@@Celisar1"Being powerful is like being a lady: if you have to tell people you are, you aren't". -MT
"I say we were better at standing up against tyranny"... exactly!
Mrs. Thatcher is the greatest woman to have ever lived!
Fantastic lady
She wanted her to jump in the air!! WTF!!!
God Bless the Iron Lady !
She did better than "Stand up and jump up snd down" she quoted herself when she answered, No, no no! to coin a phrase." Now that is pure class!
"I only have help 5 mornings a week"
God bless you Maggie a woman with Great British back bone unlike many in this nation today who would surrender to the weakest forces of socialism & injustice.
Wonderful! Thanks for posting.
What a fantastic interview - and I've seen just about all there is to see of her interviews and public speeches.
Very impressive! Powerful Woman of all times.
A fantastic woman!
The interviewer nearly died.
Ahahahahahhahaha!
Haha I love her staunch unwillingness to do a gimmicky jump. She was just delightful.
This interviewer comes across as unprofessional in constantly interrupting Thatcher. If you think they should stop talking at some point, it's much better just to let them speak as much as they want and then edit it down for time.
God I love this woman
Fantastic interview. Really enjoyed it.
We need a new Thatcher.
That bit at the end made me laugh. "I'll tell you what it shows..." lol
Hilarious. Jumpgate. Loved her comment about Gorbachev. Fair play to the interviewer though who got a bit more of Maggie's personality than most.
What a feisty woman Maggie Thatcher was. Respect!
Where was she going with her absurd "women are more peaceful than men" question? The premise of the question itself was absurd.
I think it's an interesting question, I think women are indeed more peaceful than men.
Juan Oh really? How do you square that opinion with the fact that the highest rates of domestic violence are found among lesbian couples? Anecdotal evidence isn't compelling. Men and women are both equally prone to violence, it's just that men have the natural ability and means to inflict more damage. And the premise, in the context of political leadership, is even more absurd. There is no evidence that female heads of state are less prone to committing to violent conflict.
MrChorizokiller I didn't say there was more evidence. I just said my current impression of things, I'm not much knowledgeable of this.
But remember that marvin gaye song “what's going on”, it says: “father, father, we don't need to escalate” - men seem to have an ambition to conquer and compete. Look at sports, it seems to me men are more competitive, the vast majority of people cheering aggressively for soccer teams here in brazil are men. And they fight all the time. Women tend to not care so much about that, often women care about settling things down. I don't know, it's an impression and it's obvious not just me that have it. But I could be wrong, there could be other explanations for it, as you mentioned yourself one.
That's not proof of women being innately more peaceful, there are other ways of being aggressive. Some of the most hawkish leaders have been, and are, women - take a look at Hillary Clinton.
@Curly whirly Not true. Here is one who did: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boudica
I am from her hometown and i will say that the uk went into a state of terminal decline the moment she left office and it will never ever recover unless someone of the same calibre enters office.
I admire her strength and intelligence. Fascinating person.
A Very good interviewer, her job was to get reactions and she got them. the world is run by corporations, politicians are paid well to perform to the script. It was nice to see Margaret at the end with a sense of humor.
i don't know why the interviewer even bothered with the interview, when her angle was so skewed, she tried so hard to put words in Ms Thatcher's mouth
+Delilah Because shes a political interviewer.Thats what they do
You are right! Here is an other interview where the interviewer is a lot better: ruclips.net/video/3w0U1aYyGc8/видео.html
This woman gave her life to politics with dedication and pride, and she held integrity. Todays politicians share no comparison to this woman.
Madame Thatcher is the greatest woman to have lived.
This video gets better every year.
Thatcher knew how to handle the media/press properly. Tough, stern, yet cool, very well prepared and informed, without any bombast or hyperbole. Moreover, she speaks and illustrates her ideas with great clarity. Current leaders and heads of state ought to take heed.
I absolutely love this lady
I love this Iron lady wholeheartedly, so much respect , what an impressive human being
Thanks Maggie. You were the best.
