PaykanHunter Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Well, well, well... Who knew that a Hillman Hunter escorted Maggie to #10 upon her arrival after winning the election! Brought bad omen for her you might say?... Then no more talk that Hunter had no Power then! Ok?...
Father Ted Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Ahhh, Maggie. I'd have nobbed her back then.not now though. Cheese toastie springs to mind.

Torsten2001 Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 I know who I would have liked to have been in that car
The Reverend Bluejeans Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 I know who I would have liked to have been in that car Harriet Harman or Jaqui Smith? Fuck it, you can have both. It's nearly Christmas.
Torsten2001 Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 unfortunately the lady in question was in a Rover at the time
fotorabia Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 whereas in Brighton she got saved by the porcelain Armitage Shanks toilet she was sitting on...suitable place to be when the IRA are out to make u shit yourself..

Guest Leonard Hatred Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 I know who I would have liked to have been in that car Harriet Harman... She prefers 800s.
messerschmitt owner Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 I thought she preferred Donkey Ass Fun - or is that just her hubby?
RedSparrow Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Hey Norm, you might like this, there is a forum called Car Politics http://car-politics.proboards.com/index.cgi.Don't know if you've heard of it but I think it'll be right up your street!
Cavcraft Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 I know who I would have liked to have been in that car So do I: Thatcher, that plastic faced, plastic titted slag Jordan and Kerry 'Gobshite' Katona for starters.
fotorabia Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Last point..Im a UK citizen..i was in Scotland when she was elected in 79..i lived and suffered under her..i left because the Tories created massive unemployment in the 80s..yeah man..it was a right laugh being broke and young..so i went to Germany..which was years ahead financially and a far more socially progressive country than either the UK and USA..and NZ..we have the same political system as Germany..which cant be bought and sold like yours..
Torsten2001 Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Personally I was very sad on the day of the Brighton Bomb because the evil witch lived. She destroyed industry and her legacy will destroy the Union
Wilko220 Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Well, rightly or wrongly, she was elected. Three times. And it was 30-odd years ago.So get over it.
Cavcraft Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Personally I was very sad on the day of the Brighton Bomb because the evil witch lived. She destroyed industry and her legacy will destroy the Union I'm not sure if you mean the (trade) union or the (British) union but I'd fight tooth and nail to keep both. I'd be happy to see her dead but the Brighton bombing was a terrible thing to happen.
warren t claim Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Well, rightly or wrongly, she was elected. Three times. And it was 30-odd years ago.So get over it. Thatcher was re-elected so many times because thee was no credible alternative. If you look at the political position of Neil Kinnock, which changed to suit himself and his slag of a wife you'll see why the public weren't fooled by him. First was his changing opinion on the nuclear deterrent, only to try and get himself elected. Next it was his opinion on pulling out of the Common Market, until he wormed his way into a well paid job there for himself and his wife. His opinion of the House of Lords changed when he was due to don ermine as well. The people to blame for three Thatcher victories are the Labour party for not finding John Smith quick enough. If the party/unions had voted(electable) Denis Healy in instead of (unelectable)Michael Foot the political landscape of this country might of been different. The SDP may not of been formed which stole votes from Labour in the '83 election. Sadly, Thatcher wss probably the last ever Prime Minister we will ever have who is willing to stand by their beliefs. Gordon Brown was probably as left wing as Michael Foot and Cameron doubtless has right wing beliefs that would make Nick Griffin blush but they both know that the average UK voter has broadly centre right views so they were constantly fighting over the centre ground in a compertition to try and "out bland" each other. I don't vote and I don't subscribe to any political party.
Wilko220 Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 I agree 100%. I disagreed with a lot of Thatcher's policies - but at least with her, what you saw was what you got. She said what she believed, and people could make their own minds up whether to support her or not. It seems that today's politicians will say absolutely anything if there are a few extra votes in it - you just don't know what they really stand for.
