She was way ahead of her time and was treated abysmally at the end by her colleagues. She is worth fifty of those slackers who currently inhabit the houses of parliament.

Arguably the greatest prime minister of all time, definitely the best in my lifetime. She made mistakes like any other PM, but by God! She got stuff done, and was usually right in the long run, and certainly knew how things would turn out concerning the EU and if she was still here, we would be out of the EU and they would be paying us for the privilege...........


Yes, she was our last good PM. We have had nothing worth talking about since.

The prophesies are correct. The EU will fall apart after we have left, which is why they are so desperate to keep us in.
We must get out before we are dragged down too.

I agree.

I'm not anti-Scottish, I might add. We have a number of Scottish friends and relatives and I'd prefer Scotland to remain in the union.

However, I applaud the SNP in a way. If Scotland achieved independence, it would help our economy enormously.

The SNP were against the EU membership until the late 80s where they changed their view because the Scots would never vote to be isolated from the EU and the UK.

Sturgeon has her last stand during the election because if the Tories win (which the polls suggest they will with a majority) we will soon be out of the EU and the independence quest dies a death.

Scotland voted to remain in the UK and 38% voted to leave the EU. The SNP is a busted flush on 1st Feb.

Are you sure about that?

May's deal (and Boris's) are designed to keep us in the EU, and to pay £39 billion for the 'privilege'.
