So Maggie is dead, and my instant gut reaction was to cheer. Bad Taste? I do not give a damn. It was instincts. Yes she stood up to the EU and sent troops to the Falklands. But so what, what good do she really do for the world….. nope I can not think of a single thing, nothing at all.
But Dave, this is Politics, on your blog, outrageous.
Deal With It.
Yes I cheered, so sue me, I have no money, no job, no prospects, no life. I am working class Socialist and I have never hid that fact, same as my Path and Faith. Yes The Looney Left. I want to work, but can I work for a company whose ethics are against mine? No. Which is why I still want to work in the Public Sector, Council, Government, Health (NHS), Educational. Not in a profit at any cost company.
Deal With It
The reason why she stood up to Europe was because she did not want anyone else fucking up this country apart from her. She ripped the guts out of the Unions, so that the working man and woman, who relied on the Unions for protection had no protection. She sold of the Energy Companies to help with competition, yet every one of the Big Six rise their prices every year, while not investing in the future energy supply. She sold off the Rail network, and year on year prices go up so now people can not afford to travel every day to work in another city. She deregulated the banks, and started the culture of having “Friends” as the CEO of the banks without any experience in that industry, and in 2008 we now have a Global recession, almost as bad as the great Depression of the 1930’s. She ripped apart small towns and villages by shutting down the mines, while not making plans to retrain the miners, who had been doing it for generations, so there was no work. In the North East, she shut down and sold off the shipyards and steel mills, “British Steel” does not exist, owned by the US, importing their own ore from the US. And last but not least, the Poll Tax. Another move that raped the poor working class workers.
And yet Her legacy lives on in every industrial country, which is why we now have a global recession. Shame that did not die with her, then maybe he poor of this country can get a fair chance of work, those of us who want to that is.
Will I shed a tear, Yes, because I started work in the mid ’80’s, and I know what the shit-hole this country is in now, with no end in sight. Until the world ends the whole “Get Rich Quick” scheme and starts to look for real at what we are doing to this planet and the poor of this world.
But this goes out to my friends who have fought so hard for women’s rights. She would not have made it were it not for that movement, nor would Mrs. Clinton. 50 years ago a woman in power would have been unthinkable. That is how far the movement has come, you can not give up yet.
I have observed that intelligent real estate agents everywhere are starting to warm up to FSBO Promotion. They are seeing that it’s not only placing a poster in the front property. It’s really pertaining to building interactions with these suppliers who one of these days will become buyers. So, when you give your time and effort to supporting these traders go it alone – the “Law of Reciprocity” kicks in. Good blog post.
I do understand what you are saying, one good deed etc. But what does it have to do with my post? Let us keep on subject please.
