Agree, the unions had to be brought to heel, are they any better off as a country today though ?
She was, at least, a politician of genuine conviction, unlike the "change with the political wind" individuals we endure these days.
The supporters of Hitler, Pinochet, Stalin etc etc would have a similiar view (could probably add Kim jong-un too).

Thatcher achieved great things - she saved Britain and contributed to the liberation of eastern Europe without a shot fired. She was a giant amongst pygmies.
Bob Carr’s achievement was to bankrupt NSW and enable Eddie Obeid to make millions from the wreckage. He is a pygmie amongst bacteria.
What a pathetic little, little and even more little man Carr is. A fly whom Margaret Thatcher would flick away if she could still answer for herself. A coward, because Carr waited till she couldn’t to spread his bile.

AP said there was a loud explosion on the north side of Boylston Street, just before the bridge that marks the finish line. Another loud explosion could be heard a few seconds later.
