Margaret Thatcher

What a load of crap being bandied around about MT she was a good PM we need more male MPs with the jonejones she had and as an ex-shop steward myself she was what was needed at the time.Look at to-days news with the union dynosaur leading the largest union shouting about the union `bankrolling`the present Labour leader Ed Miliband the union leader forgot to tell everyone that it is the rank and file members whose money he so blatantly misuses and it is HE that will end up in the` dustbin` of history.

Good rant Messenger - there is the faint call of MT saying 'here,here'.

Well said messenger and nan ban.

I don't have to explain my comments to you mice elf what an unpleasant post!

I think Mice Elf was just asking a question about when it is acceptable or not to break international law; nothing wrong with that imo.

Tegan I was thinking the same thing myself. It's the first time I can recall when anything has cost less than originally estimated - the final cost usually ends up being at least 25% more.

Indeed Tegan. I'm waiting patiently.

I don't think MiceElf's post was offensive. It was a perfectly legitimate question.

BAnanas Apparently Musso only made one train run to time- I imagine the rest of it was just hot air...

I don't believe Micelf has ever posted anything offensive.

Flippng heck! Is this is going the rounds? I think I made the Mussolini reference on one or other of the MT threads seven pages back.
Enough Already!

Wow, I never thought that I would hear an ex-shop steward say that MT did anything good for any union member. That woman did nothing good for any member of a union and destroyed many lives.

Messenger perhaps you could re-write/punctuate your post so that I can understand it.

Messenger I agree with Riverwalk There is reason for punctuation and word spacing. I find that post is very difficult to read because there is no word spacing and seems to make me feel dizzy.
Its the way our eyes are used to scanning written text.

Written text with pauses between separate thoughts.

You don't have to be someone from pedants' corner to find it hard to take in five lines with no punctuation or pauses at all. It was probably easier for you to write that, but is hard to read.

What's not to understand?
Reference messengers post I mean.

Regarding mice elf is it preferable to play host to a self admitted terrorist?
I would think innocent lives worth more than one persons human rights IMO.

What's not to understand?

For me, the following:

"Look at to-days news with the union dynosaur leading the largest union shouting about the union `bankrolling`the present Labour leader Ed Miliband the union leader forgot to tell everyone that it is the rank and file members whose money he so blatantly misuses and it is HE that will end up in the` dustbin` of history."

Plus,

"Jonejones" ?

River walk most people could follow that!

I wish people wouldn't demand explanations of other posters, as though they themselves have been insulted.

Riverwalk - snotty comment. (the didn't do the trick)

Jo I am not demanding an explanation. But if someone posts a totally obscure comment it is reasonable to expect clarification.

The question I then posed is perfectly clear.

Celebgran clearly feels that she is able to act as judge and jury and arrive at a verdict despite not hearing any evidence in a court of law. She also feels that having made that decision the state should act in the way she feels it should and ignore the treaty to which it is a signatory.

The reaon why this man cannot be extradited is because evidence was obtained by torture.

I can't believe anyone can condone that, however rebarbative the individual may be.

"I have no idea what you last comment means. Kindly explain."

There are nicer ways to put that.

Not snotty, merely seeking clarity.

It's not too demanding to expect adults to write clearly.

A works for me.

(Not that there was anything difficult to understand)

If we do not respect one person's human rights, however loathsome their philosophy and however harmful their actions, then everyone's human rights are endangered.

"Messenger perhaps you could re-write/punctuate your post so that I can understand it."

You sound like a teacher! That's insulting!

How far back was that Absent?!
