I was nearly up for this dignity and respect thing with Thatcher (re yesterday's post - sorry couldn't stop myself and quite frankly it is my biggest insult to call somebody Thatcher) but come on! I thought her supporters could have shown some respect for the people that hated and despised the woman.
Predictably leading the pack was the Bono of politics, billionaire Blughhh who said "I think that's pretty poor taste. You've got to, even if you disagreewith someone very strongly - particularly at the moment of their passing - show some respect." I wonder if that's what he said about Saddam, Osama et al?
Got to feel for the kids though eh? Cuddly Celebrity Jungle Queen get me out of here champion and media star, Carol (her of the gollywog gaff) and international mercenary Coup Master, Mark. They've certainly even come back for the funeral. How proud she must have been when she was alive and now looking up at them.
PS That formatting wasn't me by the way. In my paranoid world is somebody trying to say something to me?

Time For A Party?
Well we said we would, didn't we? And from the look of my Facebook feed lots of people are sharing the pleasure or at least a laugh at Thatcher's expense. And we at Goffa's share the joy.
I've mentioned the mad cow (I'm never going to say her name again) lots of times over the years both here and on LJ. I remember one where I speculated what would have happened, election wise if Britain had not gone to war over the Falklands back in 1983 and I thought about reprising the post here. Needless to say I couldn't be bothered searching but without trying very hard my Internet partners, Google found this, (actually I've had a re-think on PR, more later) this (Thatcher dies aged 87, my father and mother 75 and 71 - I tell you regional retirement, it's the future) and this (obviously BH is never far from my thoughts).
Bloody hell, do I ever go on about anything else? I certainly don't need to say comment any further.
Just to say, hopefully the funeral will be on a week-end so I can pay my appropriate respects.
