Will Thatcher's Funeral Pass Without Incident?

[SK1NT]

What ever your political opinions i find it emotionally callous to celebrate someones death, however i really can't help but think this funeral won't pass peacefully without being hijacked by some ****, protesters etc... i hope i am wrong.

Too many anti Maggie agitators around, not a chance, sadly

Only bonus is that the wavering voter might see the left what it really is. They have already shown themselves up big time over the last few days, and it's only going to get worse!

There will be opponents' and it could get interesting.

Don't you think it is exactly how she would have wanted it?

 

[Napper]

Yes it will . Hated Maggie but celebrated all week. Most I know done the same . That song top ten and all the anti stuff this week has been incredible . The funeral will be fine . Everyone had their fun and made the point this week

Poll options are too specific. I don't think it will be 'ruined' as security will be sufficient to ensure that, but nor will it pass off 'without incident'.

 

[Lenny Rider]

Sadly there will be trouble, which is frankly, whatever people might feel about her, digusting for that to happen at a funeral.

There will be more Police on overtime next Wednesady than what we saw at Orgreave.

This funeral is a disgrace, but I wouldn't be surprised if a publicly funded security operation kept thing relatively peaceful.

To have what amounts to a state funeral for someone who did her level best to tear this country apart rather than bring it together is an outrage and represents nothing more than a triumphalist celebration on behalf of the forces of thatcherism.

Who is this 'Will Thatcher' lad?

Should have been kept as a private ceremony, respect for her and the family. Complete waste of public money in my opinion as well.

This is the option i was looking for

Put it this way, if you pop into a Tesco Metro in Central London expecting to buy a box of eggs for an omelette I think you'll find the shelves empty.

Think there is something going on with the apprentice boys in central London this weekend, along with a Thatcher dead party at Trafalgar Sq, that the right wing have threatened to attack.

So numerous dignitaries from all over the world, their security and the world's media should all try and fit themselves in / around St Wulfram's C.of.E Church, Grantham? And maybe Gorby and George Bush could have a chat over sausage rolls at the Dog & Duck wake?

You can count on the SWP to do something to recruit more students to flog their papers!

I suspect any egg throwing plebs will get a smack on the hooter from those who are paying respects with a bit of dignity.....

I am by no means a Tory boy nor have ever voted Conservative... but why shouldn't a Lady who led the country for 11 years not be given a funeral of this stature at the publics expense? She made **** ups but i do feel she felt what she was doing was right...

I feel that many lefties will show themselves up as fools come Wednesday.

Does anybody know if it is being broadcast in 3D?

You can chuck an egg from 100 feet away and still score a bullseye.
