What a disgusting woman!!!!
Thatcher's policies are followed on in today's Tory Government which is even more disgusting
Ever so often files are released which were under the Official Secret Act. On Friday, amongst the papers, a file was revealed that Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher planned secretly to axe the welfare state.
This revelation must have been the biggest shock to the nation.
Amongst the proposal, drawn up by Whitehall the Central Policy Review Staff, was scrapping free NHS, although it is not free because People pay National Insurance, charging for education and ending the annual increase of benefits in line with inflation and cutting defence.
Chancellor Sir Geoffrey Howe commissioned the report and proposed the plan at a specially convened meeting of the Cabinet on 9 September, 1982.
Apparently, it even caused an uproar amongst her faithfuls. Nigel Lawson, Energy Secretary, recalled in his memoires "it was the nearest thing to a Cabinet riot."
It was leaked to The Economic and it started a public outcry.
At the following Conservative party conference in Brighton Margaret Thatcher was forced to declare "NHS is safe in our hands."This very phrase was also used by her glove puppet David Cameron time and again.
Apparently, every time he used it; he demolished the NHS more by withdrawing fund for a number of his newly funded 'flagship' schemes which never came to anything. All meant to weaken financially the NHS. He also introduce hundreds of contracts to infiltrate the NHS. Contractors, as it is well known, have only one thing in mind - profit for themselves and the shareholders.
Well, Thatcher's boy Cameron started to make her dreams become reality because it also was revealed that she never gave up on the idea, despite great opposition.
It also shows us how much the principles of the Tory's Cabinet deteriorated. As stated it nearly caused a riot but today Cameron's and May's Cabinet just agree with the dismantling of the Welfare State without a whisper of disagreement.
Since David Cameron started the waggon rolling of dismantling the NHS and Welfare and in an increasingly, frightening speed the present PM May is now determined to put the last nail into the coffin.
Richard Branson, known for his badly run railway service, was allowed to buy 200 contracts in the NHS.
In 2010 when David Cameron, leader of the Tory Party, campaigned for the General Election he too promised "NHS is safe in our hands."
The moment he won the election, he sacked 5,000 nurses and doctors and they were replaced with agency staff which cost three times as much. A plan to weaken the finance of the already hard-up NHS even further. Another dirty trick.
He also promised to invest £8bn into the NHS and won the election but obviously it was not done. He introduced austerity, closed numerous libraries, local Post Office in rural areas where people really depend on; children's nurseries even his mother openly repelled against it; sold the Royal Mail a 500 year old institution; axed 5,000 police at the time of crime at its highest; axed Army, RAF, Navy personal by the thousands and still increased the National Debts by over £600bn.
By now the National Debt stands near £2trillion and with all the Tories savings. What is really going on? It is incredible and impossible.
