Today is the day of the great strike when public workers show their displeasure of our glorious leaders' reaction to the economic situation. An inelegant steal from the poor, protect the rich situation. The image of the now unfortunately crazed and forgetful Margaret Thatcher looms large in a certain type of collective memory. Loved by the Right, loathed by the Left, the same image representing and generating feelings of worship or hatred. Quite a feat for a middle aged woman's rather non remarkable features.
