I'd certainly be interested in your rationale for that viewpoint.  

 

Whilst I can appreciate the reasons for ardent anti-Thatcher sentiment (most notably in those sections of the country which were (and remain) decimated by the closing down of the coal sector) I'd like to think there is something more substantial than the hatred of the individual to substantiate your premise about the Falkland conflict.   

There was a series of TV documentaries made some years ago.  We sent nuclear subs to the area secretly as a precaution. It was meant to be secret to avoid escalating the situation whilst the two sides were still talking.  Sadly sending the subs was leaked to the press and the only outcome then was war.  The leak was traced directly to number 10.

 

As a matter of fact I am not generally anti Thatcher.  Well no more than most of the other politicians that lie to us as a matter of routine.
