Yes : defeated the poor miners , continued the ruination of the Sterling , than arranged that silly war over Falklands ( to secure another stint at her job ) ; after which ( I seem to remember ) they called her the bag lady , who was not for turning ... A true greatness ?

Or put the miners' union out of the elected government, readjust sterling to reflect its real value, put the genocidal lunatic Galtieri out of business... is another way of seeing things Ray.

On balance : you probably know better ; I just remember that Norman Lamont's debacle with the EMU ( was it '91 , or 92 , abouts ? ) and the consequences of having held U.K. Gov't bonds in such dangerous times , cost me a packet ! Was it still during Maggie's rule , or was it on John Major's guard ?

one of the worst in the world. no consideration for others beside fellow citizens. act irresponsibly, very negative outlook in life. hostility n jealousy. everyone is dragging down each other in their own country. "look down" on all inferior nations like england, france, germany...

www.unvamagazine.com/editorials/the-croatian-way/This is not a bad post by someone who attempty to explain croatian mentality. However i dont agree that Croatia has a high crime rate...or that the problem is entirely a balkan one...as from what i can tell through the media...Russian and other eastern european places have a similar mentality. Good try though...he or she does make some good and valid points...fits in with the way croatias politicans behave...and the desire for so many croats to get rich over night...no matter what. Connections and corruption...will it ever change? CROATIANS COMPLAIN but do nothing about the thieving politicians here, they keep voting them in and the dynasties continue, they are so corrupt they can not sleep straight in bed and they are not good at it either, when they are caught they get convicted and then let out only to disapear to another country, happens so much here....they will never learn. As for being in the E ha ha ha they have no idea of what this implies and run the country same as they always have corruption in ya face. What do I know after 36 years here, !! love and hate the place....Lets talk about bringing a car to register from EU well thats a minefield and they rip off the Croatian and make it so expensive to perform a car registration, Most other countries charge a small amount , here is a total rip off and you need a few days to sort this and a few Euros too, they call it a registration fee but it is a TAX and they should be challenged legally, it is clearly a tax so the croats continue to drive million mile German taxis until they drop.
