Are those that are saying Thatcher was bad inferring that the unions she defeated were good?
Bit of a polar argument granted, as there was a lot more in her nine years than just defeating the unions [like defeating the Argies].
There were undoubtedly families that suffered from that union feud, but do the unions share any responsibility for that?
To my recollection, it was the intolerent Arther Scargill that was equally to blame

Could you include in that the selling off of the utilities, writing off millions in the process. How many of those companies are still British? She decimated the health service, including the training of nurses, which eventually led to to us recruiting thousands from overseas. Having said that, the union bosses of the 70s were about as socialist as the leaders of the USSR were communist and needed bringing down a peg or two.

Private Eye dropped hints about Heath many years ago. But I guess he was untouchable. I didn't know about the Savile connection though. There were rumours that Lord Mountbatten was blown up on his yacht because the Irish boy on the boat was a "Favourite"..

Heath was PM when the original special branch investigation into Cyril Smith's extra curricular activities was knocked on the head.
