This makes me wonder what song people will be rejoicing over when they put Cameron 6 feet under. Tory scum.

When I listen to this song, my anger isn't directed towards thatcher or Thatcherism like the British, but towards neoconservatism. Incompetent Obama is no savior, but I have little reason not to revile the neocons who put us in this situation, nor the ones trying to take power. I'm not left or right, I'm inbetween, but when would-be leaders insult my interests and intelligence so bluntly and shamelessly, I feel like tramping down the dirt on their graves as well.

I fear the maker has an even shorter memory than Thatcher's supporters. She was no saint, but she was better than the prats who set her up to be hated for actually working. As Iain Hislop once wisely put: "It seems that when times are good, labour gets elected to and cock up. Then the tories are elected to fix everything, and people hate them for it." Also, everyone ignore fu tu. He doesn't represent the tories, or even ukip. He's BNP/EDL trash. Why does this have to be such a good song...

my dad was a brickie who died in front of me at the age of 51 .We had to borrow money to bury him.My mum is now 69 and still works as a nurse evening shifts and cleaning jobs by day. Same council house. But heres the fucking twist! social mobility under labour went backwards for the first time in over 50 years. They are all the same. but if thatcher was bad, and i like costello, then i hope he writes a suitably apt song for those who really betrayed the working class one day.bless thatcher

Given PM Cameron's eulogy to Maggie I now realise how she '& Jimmy Savile on an undercover mission,led troops & saved the Falklands.I now also recall her rising majestically,at the back stick at Wembley in 1966,to head the winner & win the World Cup for England just days after hitting a winning six against the "Aussies" to win the Ashes.How could I not remember Maggie playing lead guitar for the Rolling Stones.What a woman! Many thanks to Fat Dave for reminding us what we are now missing!!!

Sounds eerily familiar to what we face with the right wing and GOP in America.

Thirty years too late and should have been dancing at the end of a rope. Sorry, Definitely not worth it. I hate it when people call her 'The Milk Snatcher' She did that as Education Secretary under pedo.. er sorry, Prime Minister Edward Heath. It is so trite: She did so much more than that. She casually ruined peoples' lives and almost single-handedly sold Britain's future to her friends in the City.

She wasn't a queen (whatever she thought). She didn't have a 'reign'. 'Reich' gets a little closer.

Why can't she comment? So you cannot have an opinion on any historical matter unless you were alive (sorry an adult) at that time? If your careful enough to read the girls comment, you'll find it has nothing to do with "Thatchers Legacy" or her opinion on it, she merely stated why she feels the masses are celebrating Thatchers death! And she's right too, it is a release. What the fuck else are we gonna do, go shout at her coffin? She was alive last week why didn't you go harp on at her then?
