Thatcher v Falmer: biggest piss-up?

[BUTTERBALL]

Perhaps she would die of joy as Falmer is announced!

 

[withdeanwombat]

We want Falmer.




Never wanted Thatcher,except with a pitchfork up her a*se,slow roasting over a roaring fire.

 

[Bozza]

Blimey - it's a close call.

Right up there with would I rather have a pint of Guinness or a nice drop of sulphuric acid.

Let me have a sleep on it and get back to you.

 

[London Irish]

Proud to be one of the five

 

[attila]

[FamilyGuy]

[Le Premier Cru]

Falmer!
Blimey, I love the Albion even more than I though I did..

Good shout, John. Likewise.

 

[looney]

Tell that to the Kent coalminers.

Were these the same miners that went on strike during WW2? and part of the group that brought down an elected government in the 70's.

Bunch of arrogant tunnel diggers, f*** em.

 

[kalinski]

my god that was the toughest poll yet

 

[enigma]

so you were not around in the 70s when labour almost bankrupted this country.

For once, we agree on something.

 

[The Auditor]

Yes but first it wasn't a case of the chancellor going begging to thew IMF to bail him out.

Bells? Yep. Do not elect parties that try to shoe horn us into the single currency LABOUR, do not elect leaders who know bugger all about economics, BLAIR.

So the fact that the economy is better under Labour than it ever was under the Tories - despite Labour not knowing anything about economics - says an awful lot about how incompetent and just plain old shit the Tories were for most of their 15 years.

 

[Simster]

Here's a CRACKING bit of THATCH economics for you looney:

Oh dear, our mining industry is running at a small loss.

Solution: Close it all down SACK everyone involved, hitting not only those families but every other business in the mining community. And then let the taxpayer stump up for all those unemployment and housing benefits for the next 10 years until light industry is finally attracted into mining communities.

A FINE use of tax payers money there.

Trying to put right the economy ruined by Dennis Healy and his Budgets every 6 months.

Do me a favour. It doesn't take 15 years to do that. And what about Heath? Have you conveniently forgotton his role in the mess that was the 1970s?

Not at all. In fact from 1965 onwards when Harold Wilson promised us 'It would not affect the pound in our pocket' it was a mess.

It continued to grow because of tory reforms, its beginning to slow because of labours reforms. And them theres the world economy....................
