This could be for any number of reasons, in your case I'm guessing that the damage done to the British economy (Never mind the British people) during the Thatcher era is simply not your area of speciality. Large parts (And I don't mean 'areas of the public sector', I mean large tracts of the country) of this country were left unemployed, dead and broken thanks to her. Just because Tony Blair was in charge while it all continued on its merry way to hell doesn't make him worse. Corrupt and useless, yes, but I would never have said the man was evil.
That said, I know a few people who know/knew Blair personally and the common consensus seems to be thats he is a slimy yuppie scumbag. |
Aye, Thatcher probably did more damage to Britain. In the bigger picture, though, Blair has done more damage, and caused more suffering.
