Hey, this Maggie Thatcher... Sounds like she wasn't all bad!

 

or was it because she had run out of things to sell:biggrin:

[egnsean]

Right to but was a great idea the problem is that new council houses weren't built to replace them by the conservatives or by labour leading in part to the housing problems of today.

I see what you mean. The reasons for the increase? Rising house prices? Lack of affordable housing?People's expectation of the state housing them?

Lack of affordable housing was due to the lack of council houses. The buy to rent landlords helped to increase house prices. How are youngsters expected to get on the housing ladder today?

 

Anyway I got out of this thread early, but couldn't help but follow it avidly. All the best to everyone, whatever their political persuasion.

Ah really though I blame the baby boomers! Plenty of work, low house prices, cheap oil, booming post war economy..,,,

But absolutely no help to those unable to find council housing in the later years. How many of the right to buyers later complained at the lack of housing available to there kids?

 

Great example of thatchers ' I 'm all right jack' attitude.'

the prob was the torys & lab both failed in there promise to biuld more social housing

i can't understand all these Thatcher lovers, think its all a bit perverted to be honest

 

I would be very, very surprised if anyone commenting here Loved

Margret Thatcher Sean, that would definitely be perverse, but just becase there are some posting here that are not full of monosylabic hate dosent make them Thatcher lovers, I personaly feel that by the end of her premiership she had done marginaly more harm than good, but what the so-called lovers have been so eloquently pointing out is the shabby state the UK was in when she came to power and she made things much better, no one yet has said she put things RIGHT!
