I only lasted 30 minutes with the BBC programme last nigh by Michael Portillo on Thatcher. There is only so much hysterical revisionism one can take. Was this man Ever a Tory? So many misreadings of events he was seemingly witness to! Mind blowing. All the tired conservative leftists were Trotted out, EU federasts ad nauseam.
The great historic events were skimmed over or ignored and with obscene haste Portaloo was at the Maggie demise ten minutes into the programme! That was dwelt on with something approaching relish and even the given causes of that was fallacious. The woman was victim of a left wing coup by the Heseltines -nothing to do with the Poll tax which was a darn good idea -or her views on the EU which were spot on, prescient and 100% bloody right.
Yesterday's terrible programme was another reminder why I will probably never vote Conservative again.
(I know I only watched half an hour but that is quite enough to get the tenor of a programme and to see where it is going.)
The most absurd comment amongst so many was when Portaloo claimed that all Dragons had been slayed and Maggie was seeking to create artificial ones.
