One privatisation we can all get behind...

[dennisr]

I consider myself a "stakeholder" (as mentioned in the petition...) - in case she does not actually die when she dies like

now signed.
On a serious note, apparently the govt a few years back were so horrified by the likely security costs of thatcher's funeral, and guarding her grave, that they tried to get the Thatcher Foundation to pay for it.

 

[danny la rouge]

when I saw this earlier it only had about 100 signatures, nearly 1400 now!

3,441 now.

 

[treelover]

don't usually sign these things, but going to with this, someone is very arch indeed...

 

[Jon-of-arc]

4500 when I checked a minute ago. Signed and shared.

 

[trevhagl]

are they seriously going to give her a state funeral? surely even the tories aren't that crazy?

Gordon Browns idea sadly, the shame

 

[Riklet]

signed, it's on 4,500 odd...

1 million here we come.

 

[gosub]

No state funeral for Thatcher has 6449, Privatized now has 5565

Are they afraid someone's dog will dig up her body?

More worried about the Thames getting a new tributary in the form of a river of human piss originating in Westminster Abbey or wherever they plant the evil old bitch I expect.

Thatcher's corpse should be sent to the nearest ATOS office, who'd demand that she stop shirking and being feckless, and get back to helping the wealth creators. There's no room for dead layabouts when it comes to ATOS.

Privatisation is rather passe. How about a shared service JV partnership brokered with G4S between Whitehall and Pyongyang and culminating in a joint cremation of glorious leaders?

they should bring the corpse along to the atos appointment to make sure it's' really dead.

 

[Mr.Bishie]

Signed.

Off with her head.

 

[ash]

Signed,sealed delivered.

How would they tell she's dead anyway? Barring advanced decomposition, that is.

BTW signed.

 

[frogwoman]

i dunno, reflexes, rigor mortis, etc.

 

[Greebo]

Well that'd work with proper doctors and a normal human being, but ATOS doesn't seem to employ them and Thatcher could hardly be said to be much of a human being IMHO.

 

[frogwoman]

yeah, they'd probably end up giving her full points and then the stakeholders would have to get involved.
