I lived through the Thatcher years. There were two not one recessions, she privatised nationalised companies well below their true value i.e. literally robbed the British people! She launched the most vicious assault on working people since the industrial revolution. She was arrogant, ignorant, genuinely unpleasant and well, more right-wing than even her own Cabinet. In fact, sometimes bitterly disliked by her own parliamentary party and Cabinet members she had knifed in the back, more than the Labour Party! To think we gave her a ceremonial funeral? And then the Thatcher family only coughed up for it when the general public complained! Yet when she was so despised she won 3 crushing victories. She didn't win crushing victories at all. Her share of the vote: 1979 43.9% 1983 44.9% 1987 42.4% It's not exactly a massive endorsement of her, is it? And it's not as if the other party's voters liked her, they didn't! Four out of ten think you're marvellous, six out of ten utterly despise you!

She still won, you can dress it up any way you want, we can only hope you stick with your man for another 5 years just as you did after the 92 election.

Are you posting from a desert island? Recent events proves she is incapable of defending us! Are you suggesting 10k PCSO's, NATIONWIDE, would have stopped the Manchester or Borough Market terrorists and while I agree she should not have reduced police numbers, given the choice of Theresa or jezza I'm voting for the one who doesn't support, attend fundraisers or glad hand known terrorists enemies of the British Government. Considering one of the Borough Market blokes seemed to be reasonably well known as a bit of a loon to his community, you'd think that having 10k more street bobbies acting as visible points of support inside communities like that would have massively increased the chances of him being stopped, or even having second thoughts himself if he's suspicious about being watched, like a shoplifter when they've seen a security guard or a CCTV camera. People around him said afterwards that he was acting suspiciously on the day of the attack, maybe they'd have mentioned it to a police officer that patrols the area or the policeman would notice it himself... and then some of the other 9999 extra officers could have been watching him.

Wow, saying this from the constant name calling lot who cheered when Margaret Thatcher died, and wanted to dance on her grave is a bit of pot calling kettle isn't it? The unemployed hhhmm, the highest recorded number of people in work in UK history at the moment and unemployment at a 45 year low at 4.6% (despite mass immigration) remind us all again what the figures were in 2010? That's OK as labour weren't kicking the unemployed they were kicking the employed into unemployment I lived through the Thatcher years. There were two not one recessions, she privatised nationalised companies well below their true value i.e. literally robbed the British people! She launched the most vicious assault on working people since the industrial revolution. She was arrogant, ignorant, genuinely unpleasant and well, more right-wing than even her own Cabinet. In fact, sometimes bitterly disliked by her own parliamentary party and Cabinet members she had knifed in the back, more than the Labour Party! To think we gave her a ceremonial funeral? And then the Thatcher family only coughed up for it when the general public complained! The assualt was on the Union leaders who were strangling this country to its knees, like a lot on here I lived through the 70's, the Union years, we were a lauging stock around the world, the British disease it was known as, she gave us our backbone back, yes there were recessions and 1 man in George Soros tried to bring the UK to it's knees for his own personal gain in the early 90's, how can that happen? We all now about recessions, labour gave us the 'great recession' as it's now known in 2008 (after brown and blair saying 'no more boom and bust') and not forgetting the mid 70's with inflation running at nearly 25%

Tbf, and I think she's a fucking nutter, it's not exactly taxing to sit on your arse and stare at your phone when you're ill is it? I think everyone does it. Whether she should be doing it though is another thing given the position she is in and the amount of fuck ups she's been producing on a daily basis recently.

Fear will always beat hope in these times. The young vote remains a genuine unknown though. It could, just could make things interesting particularly if a proportion of the grey vote turn as well.

The first time I voted Thatcher got in, I worked 9 pott banks including Royal Doulton, Royal Worcester, Wedgwoods. I have been made redundant 7 times and 8 of the factories I worked are demolished (gone forever) and the other one is a Museum at Barlaston.
Now that's what I call a recession. If you had hit Stoke-on-Trent with a nuclear bomb it would have caused less devastation.
So Tories tell me why I should vote for you what the hell are you doing for me? Oh I forgot you labelled me a scrounger and took away ALL my £8 a week means tested benefits with your ATOS Nazis.
So Labour tell me what you have done while you were in power to help regenerate Stoke-on-Trent (your safest, most loyal seat)? F**K ALL.
So I'll answer you both, Nothing is what you do because we are a safe labour seat. Taken for granted by labour and punished by the Tories for being so.

Surprised she has come down 'ill' this late in the campaign (Perhaps even Corbyn realised she is utterly fucking useless) because she has been fucked in the head for as long as I can remember.

Project Fear was soundly beaten and Hope was, and still is the victor.

I've yet to meet anyone who voted 'Leave' who believed that the whole of the £350m would go to the NHS.
However, that's a battle from the past that you've already lost. You'd best be getting ready for the next one.
