"A pleasure to listen to this 1986 interview. Along with the Iron Lady he did as much as anyone in a practical sense to give our country a chance of an economic future. A hard task to reverse the many years of Socialism and militant trade unionism that had brought us to ruin. A Scottish hero for the United Kingdom - IMHO."
What?...that is certainly putting a silky spin on things.....How about decimated the coal industry in UK, multiple villages and peoples lives put into turmoil, massive unemployment followed by the escalation of drug use and human despair......followed by a massive decline in UK Industrial Capability & the substantial reduction of Engineering.
Ridiculous really.
