Are you running a Dead pool Daws 
If so stick a me a fiver on the Tom Hicks (One can only hope  )

[dawson99]

I am actually in a deadpool this year I've got:

dawson99
Betty White
Roger Ebert
Jerry Lewis
Carl Reiner
Kirk Douglas
Leslie Nielsen
Peter Falk
Mickey Rooney
Ernest Borgnine
Mary Kate Olsen
Bob Newhart
Amy Winehouse
Gary Coleman

Your score for each accurate guess will be 120 minus the age in full years of the deceased. If there's any conflict, I will go by the birthdate listed at IMDb. If that isn't present for some reason, I'll try to find it elsewhere.

She essentially made one key bad decision in her quest for privatisation.

She started a policy of creating a free-market, creating capitalism instead of remaining socialist. Essentially she didn't want to end up like Russia. Her intent was economic growth, which she achieved, but at a price. Her policies were considered by many as too aggressive. She backed the closure of 20 coal mines/pits, creating significant job losses. Her mistake was not finding re-employment for the jobless. Unfortunately the mines and pits touted for closure by the National Coal Board we predominantly in the north-west.

This quote in her Wikipedia article sums it up really -

"To her supporters Margaret Thatcher remains a figure who revitalised Britain's economy, impacted the trade unions, and re-established the nation as a world power. Yet Thatcher was also a controversial figure, her premiership marked by high unemployment and social unrest, and many critics fault her economic policies for the unemployment level."

But interestingly for all those anti-Conservative voters, the Labour party did not reverse Thatcher's privatising state-owned enterprises.

What some here fail to grasp is both the Conservative party and the Labour party do not stand for the same things anymore. Labour are NOT sole representatives of the working class and Conservatives don't have Thatcher policies anymore.
