Thatcher is dead

[treelover]

Btw, just found out, (Guardian Dorian Lipski) Ding Dong was written by the Left Wing blacklisted writer Edgar Yip Harburg, he also wrote the fantastic and moving 'Brother can you spare a dime'

how timely and ironic...

 

[treelover]

Dissent must be absent from the occasion. Not like North Korea at all, is it?

In other news, dribbling idiots have set up Facebork hate groups for people 'exposed' by the mail. An easy troll if you're after some fun.

links?

I was speaking to an older guy I know, bit of a drinker, knows loads of people, he said he had been surprised just how many people had told him they felt something like a sense of relief now she had gone, people he said he just wouldn't have expected such sentiments from, I suspect plenty who voted for her have a sense of guilt..

Sense of guilt?

I grew up in east London. 90% of everyone I know (and still do ) votes Tory and certainly prefers Thatcher over the woolly puffs we have now. I think you're under estimating how popular Maggie remains to this day amongst Tories - they'd certainly poll more with a leader like that now.

Hence the tory MPs for east london. And puffs? Apart from spelling it wrong, about time to leave.

well Wanstead and Woodford was pretty Tory and pretty East London. You'll be dragging out your laughable heroic car this weekend.

Don't pay your license fee in full.

Is there a choice of how much to pay?

I though the subway workers were part of a union?

ah right so you're an expert on E11 and E18. - silly me.

Some Thatcher loving Tory councillor obviously took a disliking to the art work. Either that, or Boris crept out in the early hours last night & painted over it.

Or maybe gunnercunt did it?

 

[The39thStep]

Did anyone watch question time last night and that young woman who said that Thatcher, as a woman, being elected inspired her generation?

 

[treelover]

Yes, dyed red hair/piercing(in other words a straight) she said it wasn't about her policies, then clapped when one of the panel was talking


about her policies

Maybe, I honestly had no idea that he wrote "buddy can you spare a dime" for example. It's one of those songs you think has just been around for years.

Why is half of twitter banging on about The Witch Is Dead? This is not an important issue is it? Who gives a fuck?
What kind of person buys shit like that anyway?

I meant there is little left in 'alternative dress' that means anything now...

You are touching on one of llettsa's key theories

you don't think that the bbc censoring a popular song at the top of the chart they "perceive" as bad taste is important?
you don't think, as butchers' says, that this clearly demonstrates the relationships and structures that lead to that decision being made where we presume the bbc are neutral and apolitical?

the decision shouldn't really be theirs to make

It's their way of making an easy protest for 99p or whatever. Like a petition, but supposedly more subversive because they can force the BBC to mention it. They're not buying it to listen to it. The Youtube version is good enough for that.

I didn't know that the BBC were censoring it. Is that why it's all over my timeline?

i was just talking about the campaign to make it number one. It's a stupid idea and only wallies will buy it. If you want to hear it, it's on YouTube ffs!

69p on amazon
