Don't forget the four myths...
fwiw - Maggie Thatcher gave subsidies for US private hospitals to open up here whlst starving the NHS.
fwiw - During Maggie Thatcher's time having a company car was an allowable tax expense. So Parkinson built more roads and supported car industry with tax cuts whilst public transport was run down like the national railways.
It was only much later, when it was realised that roads just became congested and mass public were buying foreign cars did they realise how screwed up, daft and anti-British their policies were against national interest. Stupid or what you decide?
You peeps may not know but the NET impact of Maggie's policies were just simpl to feck up national and public interest, selling national industries for a song to international funds and laying the foundations of our manufacturing demise.

One needs to be an economist to realise what big leakage of money from UK to rest of the world this was as well as being real bad policy.
Now we realise way forward is public transport not the private car. :idea:
