I am an ex miner mate, it was Thatcher who started the destruction of British industries to smash the unions, Blair finished it off for her.
I hate Thatcher with a passion, but have got to admit, she would not stand for what is happening to this country now. i agreed with her right to buy policy too as it helped a lot of people to get on the property ladder, she just had ulterior motives, get the plebs in debt and they won't fight back when they shaft them
I believe it was her who made credit cards easier for people to obtain too

Obviously we all vote in our local constituencies to elect an MP who may or may not form part of the Governement. However we all know we're really voting for a particular political party and the big cheese at the head, who will become PM if that political party is successful. Not everyone thinks like that, but most do.

Couldn't bring myself to vote for Blair...nearly did once but spolied my ballot paper instead.

with due respect Scargill was the obnoxious little **** who cause all the trouble, they were always on strike with him leading the Trosky Twat until Thatcher stockpiled the coal 2 years worth they were never going to win, but scargill wouldn't compromise yet he didn't have to struggle like the working man, he couldn't give a **** about them, thats what i saw was i wrong

The miners were on the brink of winning, if Thatcher hadn't lied to NACODS and said it wasn't about pit closures it would have been all over, she **** herself when they said the would come out in support of the miners so blatantly lied to them, Scargill was proved right in the end, he just played into Thatchers hands
