I think it's a long overdue acknowledgement of one of the greatest Political figures in UK politics of the last century.
The woman who turned the UK from being the sick man of Europe into a competitive trading nation again.....put the negative and divisive Trade Union bullyboys to the sword ....and found time along the way to show Johnny Foreigner that the British Lion still had teeth.
Not bad for a lass of humble beginnings, who lived over the shop in a small provincial town.
And for those sad deluded folk who have lived their lives vicariously through their support of Socialist Policies, which so spectacularly failed them, they can simply excercise their right to take a different view, and go to work on that day. Not at double bubble though.....that would be hypocrisy of the highest order.
For the Benefits Brigade, unless HMG organises some street parties for them, with appropriate plastic Union Flags to wave at the Media cameras, then it will simply be another empty day, which would merely highlight the vacuous existence of many of them.
I commend the idea to the House!
