| Re: Thatcher has Dementia
It's not the 'blood on the hands' that annoys me, or is even an issue, just that Blair is more of a slippery cunt than Thatcher, Heseltine, Ingram or any of that lot. For all the brutality metted out by the various Thatcher governments and sub-governments, Team Blair truly raised the bar for contemptability with their dishonesty, corruption, whitewashing and backstabbing. That'd be bad enough if they held the politics that they claimed to, but up until recently they were instigating policies further to the right and more authoritarian than anything the Conservative party front bench would dream of putting forward.
I'll concede that my seething hatred of Blair and his cronies over Thatcher is in part due to my having lived adult life through his reign and not her's, but the distinctions between the two in ideological and policy terms are so little as to be negligible.
