Definitely Not A Province Of A Wider Sphere Of Influence Day: the provening
Once there was a wicked witch in the lovely land of Oz
And a wickeder, wickeder, wickeder witch there never, never was
She filled the folks in Munchkin land with terror and with dread
‘Till one fine day from Kansas way a cyclone caught a house
That brought the wicked, wicked witch her doom
As she was flying on her broom
For the house fell on her head and the coroner pronounced her dead
And thru the town the joyous news was spread
Ding-dong, the witch is dead! Which old witch? The wicked witch
Ding-dong, the wicked witch is dead
Wake up, you sleepy head, rub your eyes, get out of bed
Wake up, the wicked witch is dead!
She’s gone where the goblins go below, below, below, yo ho
Let’s open up and sing, and ring the bells out
Ding-dong! the merry-o sing it high, sing it low
Let them know the wicked witch is dead
A thread in which people who were too young to vote when she stopped being PM, were children when she was PM and weren’t alive during the Falklands Conflict can grandstand how much they hate a dead woman, and downvote a Northerner with a massive cock.
The Argentinians [still think it’s theirs](https://imgur.com/a/HHUf7xp). This is a sign they’ve put up on the Chilean-Argentinian border.
See I think the UK is a bit of a shithole, frankly. But it could be a lot worse.
Imagine living on a remote set of islands and unironically celebrating a “Margaret Thatcher Day”. Oof.
So, at what point do we talk about her decisions to pull our forces out of the region which allowed the invasion in the first place?
She was so hated during her time that she won 3 elections in a row. Thank god we have redditors to remind us
Grew up in a coal mining village during her tenure.
Still think I’d prefer her in charge than Boris.
I’m not too young and I remember her being a total bastard to the working class miners and new age travellers down stone henge. She screwed up my generation proper and is responsible for the skills shortage in this country because the bitch wouldn’t invest in the young folk just enslave them on some dead end YTS scheme.
