New Social Movement - Margaret Thatcher Dead

By Olive Onion


There's a new movement afoot, it's called, "Margaret Thatcher Dead". Whether it's political or merely social, remains to be seen. Ms Blythe of South London has been rallying fellow protesters to celebrate the new movement.

She has set up a Facebook group, calling it 'The Witch is Dead', a subsidiary group of the movement called "Margaret Thatcher Dead". This group already has over 5,000 members and calls for "demonstrations of disapproval" across the country. I am not sure what she means. Is she asking us to disapprove of Margaret Thatcher's slipping out of her mortal coil, all too easily, and without a hint of hard labour?

Ms Blythe is efficient. She has actually enumerated a list of specifics on Facebook, wondrous troubles that happened in Bristol and Glasgow. The University of East London graduate educates others in drama and specialises in workshops for the youthful.

She is specifically crazy about lawbreakers and promotes disagreement resolution via drama. I myself understand various other ways, however drama is a historical favorite where conflict is concerned.

Yet the girl is deluded. Her Facebook web page reads: "Come and enjoy our freedom and liberty from tyranny! On the day Maggie stands down, when and for all!"

But the poor lady is deluded. Her Facebook web page checks out: "Come and commemorate our liberty and liberty from tyranny! On the day Maggie stands down, at last!"

It's a time to show, Ms Blythe said, in these thriving times, our disapproval. It's not about gloating and being mean. It's about making use of that date to review the past, however unfortunate that day may be for some individuals.

So, a serene exhibition of disapproval and helping the Government to understand we're not silly and we have not been persuaded by more thriving times since Thatcher's reign.

So, a calm exhibition of disapproval and letting the Government know we're not stupid and we haven't been persuaded by more thriving times ever since Maggie's reign.

It's all excellent, since this is a 'group catharsis', for "survivors of the Thatcher years" those struggling with post-thatcher, a terrible tension ailment, a recognized problem.

Ian Bone, of Class War, said that an effigy of Our Lady Thatcher will sit on the fourth plinth in London's Trafalgar Square, which has been suggested as a site for a possible statue for the former prime minister.

There's a huge papier-mache statue of Thatcher being done that will be fallen. He said it will be the same size as the Saddam Hussein one.

We want to celebrate the end of Thatcher Mr Bone said. Scotland Yard has launched a major operation to counter threats. Naturally, all officer leave has been canceled, something of which I am sure Lady Thatcher would approve.

I wasn't planning to attend, but with all of this drama going on, I may pop Sheeba in her blue cat box and saunter over to Trafalgar Square to witness proceedings.

Of course, Thatcher is not lifeless yet, not while she's obtaining all this promotion. She enjoyed promotion, and the last time I looked, the Tories were still half-running the country. Ah well.

Whatever you may think of Margaret Thatcher's policies, and some of those were ruthless indeed, she was a heck of a woman. I am still pondering her character, and whether she boded well or ill for the country.

Many people began reassessing their values while Thatcher was PM, and that by itself cannot be a bad thing.

She will go down in the annals of history as a remarkable human being. Glenda Jackson's character assassination of Thatcher in Parliament recently, shows how divided we are as a nation.

Yet, Thatcher will be remembered long after Glenda.

So the debate rages on.
