Nothing really news worthy, but just a question.
Why does she have a 'sepcial branch escort'?
Do all ex-Prime Ministers get this kind of treatment? ____________________ Like a Yorkie - I'm not for the girls  |

What, from old ironbollocks Milksnatcher?
Aside from giving the unions an admittedly much-needed slap, I'm hard pressed to think of anything much.
Because of her actions:
we've got buggerall real production base,
we have very few technically skilled indigenous people (the non-indigenous part doesn't bother me, it's the fact that we're utterly reliant that does),
and the common populace is still using the personal spending habits that were cultivated by Thatcher's much-beloved yuppies to this day, thus causing our current economic instability.
Strong leadership is one thing, giving your generational successors the two-fingered salute is quite another. ____________________ '10 SV650SF, '83 GS650GT (it lives!), Questionable DIY dash project, 3D Printer project, Lasercutter project |

As much as I hate to admit it, despite everything already mentioned, the few times I was glad she was on 'our side' was when she dealt with the EU.
It was one less worry that she was signing off powers to the EU and giving up our opt-outs unnecessarily.
Struggling to think of anything else good though... ____________________ A Guide To Powerbands |
