Demise

I wasn't a fan of the Iron Lady by any means. I didn't like that spooky husky and haughty tone in her voice. And I'm sure I would have been feeling hard done by if I'd been a miner striking in 80s Britain.

I did share her passionate anti-Communistic views and liked the fact that she was so courageous. She had no need to cry 'misogynist' every time someone challenged her. Our PM responded to her passing by saying she admired Mrs Thatcher for being a woman (..). While she was just deceased, our brave Foreign Minister Carr suddenly recalled a supposedly racist remark she allegedly made decades before. 

Sad demise of any remaining vestiges of decency with the leftist brigade, the right-on commentariat, the 'activists', the professional protesters and the soap-dodging subsidised subversives.

Yes, she had a heavy-handed approach to salvaging the British economy from lethargic strike-ridden unproductiveness. I think she was onto something with her views that people had started too much to look to the state to provide them with..everything. However, saying "There's no such thing as society" was never going to look good.

Here, the Pravda-like ABC (you know, the national broadcaster that is meant to represent all Australians..) even re-wrote history, saying she had initiated the conflict with Argentina. 

She divided opinion. But she was never in it for the spin and tokenism that is so prevalent in politics today. She had convictions, very strong convictions and if you were on the wrong side of that equation you had better be prepared to make the appropriate adjustments and/or pull your socks up.

The Leftoids dancing and cheering on her grave, however, once again provides a illuminating and nauseating insight into a glaring ethical void. She was a tough leader. You may feel she was your political enemy. But she was also an 87-year old lady who had been suffering from Alzheimer's disease. 

I suppose the Left can't afford decency. But then that might make sense, after all. 

The Left doesn't do class..
