      https://www.theguardian.com/environm...her-green-hero Here is a pretty balanced assessment of thatcher's green credentials. It is undeniable that towards the end of the 80s she did help to raise the profile of green issues. How much of that was her heartfelt belief and how much was just shrewd political opportunism we will never know.

        Your right it's something we may never know due to the hatred folk have for her . I do think she was sincere in what she believed in albeit I didn't take to her very strong agenda and view , outside the UK she was quite revered.

          I wasn't upset. I just think it important for posters to make clear what are their own words and what is cut and pasted from elsewhere. You seem to be the only person on here who doesn't do that.

            I expect she stopped free school milk to reduce the impact of dairy farming, introduced Right to Buy to make sure fewer houses that needed to be heated/lit etc were built, and declared war on Argentina to because the General Belgrano was terribly carbon inefficient.

              can't be arsed because you're blinded by hatred of anything right of Mao.

              Your ego is the size of a fridge freezer , you just won't have it

              I am surprised your wife hasn't had you shot

                      I hated the women , and still do as she is of an age and political thought I find hard to defend or relate too, however my bitterness has wained and its on record she did make those ecological statements , she didn't of course bang on about them , however as a matter of record she did make them.
