I think her whole point was to get away from government "solutions"

The fundamental problem with Thatcher is that she didn't offer redevelopment projects for the old mining communities to help them develop a post-mining economy. This would have included education, training, and special grants to establish new companies in these towns. Instead she just left the miners and their communities out in the cold. So much for her legacy...

Its a very simple cold, inhuman way to rule. Look at 'inefficincies' in the system. Dont try to improve them. Just cut them out with a hacksaw, no matter the human cost. Put the sufferers on the dole to stop outright revolt. When the political and social structure of these people breaks down in the future. Then you attack the people as lazy scoundrels sucking off public assistance and take it away. Thatcherism = violence.

Thatcher was an evil bastard

Have you ever read the book "The Writing on the Wall"? It is about the UK in the 1970's and a good reminder of why we need these reforms.

Colonelcronin, I've spent weeks arguing with this guy. He doesn't seem to understand that Thatchers policies were continued under Labor, because she had good policies and was possibly the greatest post-war primeminister we'll ever have.

So if the majority of Labour party members feel as you do, then why was he party leader for so long? Why didn't members in the party, the trade unions, challenge him? Why was Brown made his successor? It seems to me that a large number of party members and the country in general agreed with Blair, and wanted to keep a good portion of the Thatcher reforms in place. And that if Blair had moved to undo her reforms it would have been a political nightmare for Labour.

Blair, is not or was never true labour and was never going to role back those policies. The labour party was essentially hijacked, and Blair was never one for listening to his grass roots, its one of the major complaints against him, from all sides. As Benn has said, the shift from "Stalinism to Blairism is not much". The UK has not had a labour govt for 11 years thats why. The red tories were voted in under a false flag

If Thatchers policies were designed to make people work why did she remove the goal of full employment from economic policy? Why did she decimate industry? Feel free to look up channel 4 worst britons in history. Apparently Browns government is now as unpopular as Thatchers government before she was ousted
