Unfortunately, and ironically not.
Those who snapped up their council houses (made possible by her of course) then perhaps a few years down the line sold them off and moved on and did it all again (with varying success) will be amongst her main detractors I suspect.
Should never have happened.
House prices wouldn't have rocketed so much, homelessness wouldn't be such a dire problem, and this effing govt wouldn't be advising those who did all those years back to budge up to allow others in their place.
What a mess!
Sadly, with Thatch's blessings, everyone got what they paid for.

Thanks for the warm welcome.
EDIT: By the way, I said in my comment that IndyMedia was reporting it but that there had been no mainstream confirmation. In other words, I obviously did scan the news feeds but I still thought the report worth a mention. When it became clear that it was a hoax, I edited my comment. I wasn't looking to cause a stir, which is perhaps more than I can say about you, when you suggested I'm an idiot. Clearly I don't know what the etiquette of posting news stories is to this board. But at least I was raised with manners.
Already, I like John Rice!

Fear not. Geoffrey usually has a bad word to say about anybody at some point or other. He's a bit of a sweetie like that.

Just to forewarn you ... you won't need to have to check any newsfeeds on the fateful day - the news will be coming at you via ALL poss. info feeds.,, in VERY close succession. There will be no need ...or even time to check.

Oh, it was just a throwaway comment, don't panic. I have issues with that woman and her government, the remnants of which are currently having a second bite of the cherry x
