Actually many of you should be asamed of your comments here, but youarent Im sure. and simon....you were born and lived i London, London bears NO resemblence to Britain. Its like saying California tells me all I need to know about the US. Garbage. It was wealiry predictable that lot of you would crow about how brave you yanks would have been (ignoring the fact that people rushed in to confront these madmen in London. Its predictable you use it to justify your guns as if that owuld have stopped it. Didnt stop Islamic nutjobs bombin Boston did it. Or flying planes into New York. Arming yourself didnt stop Columbine, Oakland, Taft, Newtown, and many many others. In fact there is a shooting atrocity in the US every month. And you have the temerity to write abusive garbage about us Brits after a horro incident like this. How would you have felt if we had done the same to you after 9/11?.

Actually I withdraw that Hilllsborogh statment I just made as it was a tragedy. I just wish you would let it lie now. It wasnt Thatcher, that is jut clutching at straws. It was supporters cramming in when they hadnt got tickets, inpet policing and corrupt police changing statments. Everybody now needs to move on.

Mmm, unfortunately the facts if you look at economic activity in 1978 and compare it with 1988 makes you look like an idiot.

Gestapo tactics? Are you for real? The N Irish, wanted in a huge majority to remain British. What exactly would have you done? abandoned them? I dont think the US does that to its people either. And what was Omah, Warringon, Manchester where these "brave" terrorists killed women and children out shopping?

Well I dispute she caused a north south divide. and I live in the UK. The south was ALWAYS more wealthy than the north. WEhat you really mean is as we modernised the city of London became more powerful. And you are right. Am I moaning like you? No because it also helps the rest of the uk. Without London we would be in real trouble.

That is garbage. I live in Manchester and have done since the 1970s. A lot changed over the decade in our city. Please dont liken your city, Liverpool, and its militant commie goos which sunk you economically to Manchester pleas.

...and of course no blame lies with the supporters?

Sorry forgot the linke. Here is the map: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/2432632/UK-General-Election-2010-political-map.html ps Notice that the only tiny bits of red in england are where Magsts lives in Liverpool.

Torys by the way cant get elected in Scotland and Wales, and indeed Northern Ireland because these are client states. Ie they are welfare dependent. For every £1 spent per head in England per person, it is between £1.5, and £1.6 in theses countries. they rely on handouts. Therefore they are obviously going to vote socialist. See my American friends, its england that is the economic powerhouse, and we English really want our independence. But we wont ever be offered it while our govenmtne pander to these economic basket cases. If england were independent, Labour would never be voted in again, ever. Look at this map, the blue is Tory. England is nearly all blue, its Scotland, Wales and N Ireland that when added vote in the...

Well if you did then even someone as blinkered as you can read the economic facts about what she inherited in 1978 (a bankrupt nation, strikes every five minutes). Now read up what the late 1980s were like, a top 5 economy. Facts you see make a fool of you.
