Yes it's good to have other points of view, shame that doesn't exist on here in regards to thatcher, and as an alternate view is put you get called basically a Tory sympathiser because of it.
And your point about governments serving people, now you've intrigued me, care to mention one government ever who has done this ? You can scour the world if you wish, and can start from the roman times if you find it difficult.
My thoughts on MPs and political parties including unions is one of utter contempt, they are just self serving scumbags, Scargill was one, Blair another, and Cameron is most certainly one, and of course so was thatcher, but at least she had some gumption about her.
I think in an ideal world 'Governments should be about serving the people not ripping them off and lording it', hope that clarifies Jager, and I'm not saying just the Torries are corrupt, but they are at the heart of the problem in this country!...............
