Maggie Thatcher was famous for weeding her vegetables out of the cabinet. -- Martin Thatcher's weedkiller was sprayed about willy nilly and killed many thriving industries and manufacturing plants. Her weedkiller ruined this country and she had the nerve to cry when she was kicked out of Downing Street. Pity she didn't go down like lots of hardworking people did. |
