Mike: Well who do you suggest we blame?
Rick: THATCHER!

Just a quick post of thanks to the wonderful Helga, sometime Urbanite, who compiled the original "ding-dong the witch is dead" compilation may many moons ago.

Cheers Hels, it's on loop at the moment.

Not having a go at you, but it is amazing how many tributes mention the fact that she was a woman.

Why is it amazing ? It was an incredible achievement for a woman, especially in those days. Personally I think that the level vitriol aimed at her from the left is in part down to this fact because it strikes me that really, when push comes to shove, the British left prefer their women barefooted, pregnant and in the kitchen. Or very posh. Like Harman.

Anyone who takes pleasure in the death of another human being is a cunt who is utterly devoid of common humanity.

You didn't cheer the deaths of this lot, then?

You do realise it's possible to laud the election of a female PM and simultaneously hate her dead rotting guts?

Bob Dylan is leading the tributes.

Well laud it then.

 

[marshall]

Is it me, or is this quite a muted response from Urban? A few years back these boards would have experienced meltdown.

All a bit 'meh', I guess.

Would have preferred to see a public cremation......................whilst she was still alive.

 

[Pickman's model]

I just thought it was notable thats all (both that its mentioned and the prominence that it was given), and gender is not really something that would be specifically pointed to if a male PM died (many of whom of course have much less to mention when talking about legacy / achievement / controversies).

 

[brogdale]

On the day all the cuts kick in! how very fucking apt!

Yep, ironic and somehwat convenient for the present lot; a huge distraction for the media.

She might be, but her 'ism' ain't.
