Baroness Thatcher - have a word with the Daily Mail

Final Destination | 09.04.2013 09:25 | Public sector cuts | Social Struggles

The same newspaper that famously cried "Hurrah for the Blackshirts", and whose website praised the Nazi slogan "Arbeit Macht Frei", are advertising a form through which readers can request a state funeral for Margaret Thatcher. Have a word...

The Daily Blackshirt
The Daily Blackshirt


The Tory party turned on Margaret Thatcher and forced her out of office when the meglomania and authoritarianism that she'd inflicted on British people found realisation in the Poll Tax, which, lest we forget, sought to impose a huge tax on voting, to exclude large sections of British society – the actual victims of Thatcherism – from the democratic process.

During the Falklands War, both France and Chile assisted Britain, but, while Thatcher famously despised the French who'd helped her, it was the affection she retained for Chilean dictator General Pinochet which exposes the real psychopathy of Thatcherite politics.

General Pinochet imprisoned, tortured and murdered men, women and children, and wrote the script for Thatcherite politics, killing trades unionists, radicals and even liberal opponents, then defining the monetarist blueprint, which spread world-wide, leading directly to the grand-theft capitalism which invests more in war than healthcare, and which robs taxpayers to prop-up banks whose corruption was legislated by the regimes that copied the monetarist experiment.

In the UK the NHS is blamed for the crime of suffering decades of deliberate mismanagement, of privatisation and of systematic underfunding, and, while OUR parents and grandparents pass-on in conditions of sometimes parlous misery, in the ultimate insult to those she abused, Thatcher dies in a fucking suite in The Ritz!

The same newspaper whose aristocratic proprietor famously cried "Hurrah for the Blackshirts" before WW2, and whose website recently praised the Nazi slogan "Arbeit Macht Frei", are advertising a form through which readers can request a state funeral for Margaret Thatcher, saying "If you believe Lady Thatcher deserves a state funeral... just sign this online petition or print out the form... We will pass it to the Prime Minister's office". Let the Daily Blackshirt know exactly what you think of being asked to pay for Thatcher's final trip (if you wish, use IP shielding, and consider submitting someone like Nick Clegg's e-mail address) -
