The British Summer of Discontent - The growing civil unrest of the native British population, sparked by the murder of 3 young girls in Southport

All that spiky agricultural machinery too. So spiky. Sharp bits.
I’m disappointed nobody brought a muck spreader and used it.

Historically, sharp agricultural instruments in angry hands have been put to good effect many times over.

Not that I'd want anything like that to happen, of course.

Non approved machinery was stopped on the outskirts of London. (not joking)

The way to fuck London is for those Farmers that supply London markets and restaurants directly to stop, and for all other farmers to back them up.

Stop the parasitic class feeding and release the host.

You need the truck drivers on board for that to really work. My only exposure to British truck drivers is through Jeremy Clarkson, and he seems to think they're all serial killers and rapists.

Clarkson vs the Truck drivers has always been a joke. They know this.

He was complaining about the Truck divers that rape and murder sex workers, and perhaps Mexicans.

The ranks of truck drivers in the UK have been stuffed with recent immigrants through various government schemes. No longer has the prestige or money it used too, after the 'shortage' the government stepped in to ensure it would stay as a barely above minimum wage job by offering anyone who asked free HGV training.

I suspected it might have been taken over by Arabs. It's similar in large American cities. Most of our long haul interstate truckers are Americans and all the short distance stuff is immigrants. It leads to some funny interactions at the store in the morning when the Chinese immigrant running the gas station gets in an argument with the Iranian immigrant delivering Doritos.

I had a delivery from a really nice dude from Hong Kong who was over working for three months. Politest and hardest working delivery guy I’ve ever had. Based Cantonese bros are cool with me but I fucking hate our government cheating my fellow countrymen out of overtime and higher wages for importing him to cover a short term period.

Its the kind of thing a union would have complained about 50 years ago but they’re all full of gender queer commies now so fuck them.

Dunno if anyone watches Mark Felton history videos but he's gotten pretty political in his latest video which outlines how the government would rather give more gibs to ukraine whilst cutting our army budget, feel like this is the right thread for this sort of thing.

Thatcher

She did some horrible things. She did some good things too.

But most of all she had balls.

'Ate Socialists
'Ain't 'aving no pride shit in schools
'Fuckin love me ozone layer
'Ate mass migration
'Ate EU

Born too soon. RIP Queen.

Scrapping section 28 was a huge mistake and what kick started the acceptance of degeneracy en masse.

How people like to fuck has no place being discussed anywhere except for with sexual partners and certainly not in schools.

I know this is probably quite a large topic but can someone explain to me why she was hated so much, i know she shut down the mines and shit but there must be other things she did that was unpopular right?

For Scotland it was the poll tax, and for many people it was things such as taking away the daily milk delivery to schools.

It is. There's lots of little things, but a summary.

Poll tax: People should all pay the same level of tax for their property. Doesn't matter if its a 1 bedroom studio flat or a castle. Hit the poorest really hard and let the richest off easily.

Housing: Thatcher was genuinely frightened of Communism, and she thought the best way to prevent it spreading in the UK was to give away state owned council stock at bargain basement prices. You're less likely to approve of the USSR if you own property. The plan did work, but the USSR collapsed and there's been a shortage of rental property ever since.

Miners: Thatcher destroyed trade unions in the UK (I personally think this was a good thing, but most dont). They're all relatively toothless now, with exception to teachers and train drivers who can cause national problems when they get upset.

Falklands: Thatcher was unpopular, and she wanted a war. The Argentians before this used to sabre rattle, and the Brits used to send ships to scare them off. Thatcher basically allowed the invasion of the Falklands to happen, so she could have a war with a shithole she knew she would trounce and become a hero for beating. Obviously, this makes her hated by the families of the many men who died there.

Public services: Britain used to have state owned telecoms, electricity etc and she sold them all off to her allies for near free essentially. She sold state assets to buy support, and the country has suffered from this loss ever since.

One thing she did do though, that I referenced above that she gets no credit for is, you know, literally save the planet. A lot of the posters might be too young to remember but there was a huge thing in the 80s with the ozone layer being depleted and skin cancer rates skyrocketing. Thatcher, a Chemist, pretty much single handedly (until she got Ronnie on board) organised an international response to getting rid of the chemicals causing it.

Bad for the miners, bad for public services and soldiers but she really did save who knows how many lives in the decades since.

Thatcher started what labour finished, both with the mines and milk. Labour closed more mines than the tories did, and scrapped milk for senior schools.

Both parties are equally shitty but the poll tax was an equitable solution to community rates. I imagine the reason the scots hated it so was because, being the net drains they are, the concept of paying in equally is akin to a personal insult to them.

And it worked and that whole "holes in the ozone layer" went away in a couple years. It was one of the few environmentalist successes, because it was based on actual science.

So of course Thatcher gets no credit and no respect, sort of like Richard Nixon is never acknowledged by leftists as the guy who actually presided over establishing the EPA and managed détente with China, and while you may hate commie chinks as much as I do, that sure beats nuclear war.
