What utter rubbish and you know it, destroy the working class where pray would they go, there's no future of putting them on the dole which is what has and always will make a total nonsense of that statement. What Thatcher did was to put the Communist Trade Unions in their place, that fine body of men led by the likes of Bob Crow, they had him on "Have I got News for You" it was a toss up who was the worst ever panellist him or a tub of lard who once stood in for Roy Hattersley. All union leaders are more interested in their big bucks salaries and and the nice line in exes, only the other week big hearted Arthur took the MUM to court because they stopped one of his perk he was still receiving even though he retired years ago
