    Sidthefish - in which reality? She reduced oberbloated outdated nationalised industries that were dragging down the nation and introduced policies that launched a wave of small businesses and established the entrepreneurial spirit that saved Britain. Did you experience Britain in the 70s? In 1987, she won her 3rd general election by a bigger majority than the first two. I think the British electorate of the 80s knew whether they were better off don't you? They elected the Conservative govt twice more after she departed. In contrast, when Blair arrived, he lost 30% of his 1997 election votes by the time he left office. Interested to read thoughts of anyone who actually knows what they are talking about.
