Celebrate Thatcher's death party, tonight, Windrush Square

My eight year old found an album of steve bell cartoons years ago. When I got home this evening with a giant grin on my face and asked if she had heard the news she knew exactly what it was about. I can barely imagine the extent her legacy carries in many, many families. A legacy of redundancy, and hopelessness. Domestically, Maggie started a process of victory to the bankers, the shirkers and the asset strippers that continues to this day. She was a valiant class warrior for the enemy. Internationally she was a fervent supporter of Apartheid South Africa, Pinochet and Saddam Hussein. She was corrupt, and willing to organise massive arms deals that favoured her son.
 
Anyone spot any urbs? :D

I saw golightly but he stared past me with that 1000 yard stare of his :(
 
I spent a lot of time trying to stop people talking to Journalists (and giving free beer to anyone who looked like they would appreciate it).The people who feature in the pics I'd be a bit reluctant to call them hipsters and/or media whores but I'd back my guess up with folding readies.

People are actually having a party in windrush square. I think celebrating anyone's death is a disgusting thing to do.

This "party" going on in Windrush Square is utterly vile. Ashamed to be a Brixtonian at the moment. #Brixton

Fuck 'em
 
Ah, so she thinks Windrush Square belongs to The Ritzy :facepalm::facepalm:

Understandable I suppose, what with the way they hijack the Square with their tables :D
The people with the "ding dong the wicked witch is dead" banner went and unfurled it over the edge of the Ritzy balcony,security fucked them off pronto all though as far as I could see they didn't threaten or use any actual violence.
 
I went, but couldn't find anyone I knew. Popped into the Albert, but felt embarrassed cos I was by myself, so left. :( Proud of Brixton tho' :)
The Editor needs to invent an Urban ap, to let people know when other Urbs are in the vicinity.
