Lets be honest.....they are all crap!!!!!!

Cant argue with this Chris.

Which is probably why most people would (IMO correctly) suggest Thatcher as the best.  Through some of the most diabolical times in the modern history of the UK, she stood her ground and led like a leader should.  Didn't back down unnecessarily like some of the later lot.

Could we possibly imagine how much worse things would have been if Maggie didn't overpower the might of the Unions at a time where Industry had (pretty much) already come to a stand-still?

Best..................Maggie.

He was arguably the best weapon the Tories had in the late 20th century.
