Toon Should Rethink Minutes Silence For Thatcher!

Last updated : 09 April 2013 By Footy Mad - Editor

Maggie has never been a popular figure on Tyneside since the pit strikes, and there was hardly a person willing to give her praise when interviewed by TV reporters at Grey's Monument on Monday.

A minute's silence could be seriously embarrassing for Newcastle United on Thursday, should it take place.

Hundreds of cheering people held parties to “celebrate” the death of Thatcher across the country last night.

A crowd of two or three hundred people assembled in Glasgow's George Square where in 1989 protests to the introduction of Thatcher's poll tax took place.

Some wore party hats and launched streamers into the air while a bottle of champagne was opened with a toast to the demise of Baroness Thatcher.

Members of various organisations including the Anti-Bedroom Tax Federation, the Communist Party, the Socialist Party, the Socialist Working Party, the International Socialist Group, were joined by members of the public to mark the occasion.

Martin Chomsky, the lead singer of Chomsky Allstars, performed his song So Long Margaret Thatcher in George Square.

He said: "There are mixed emotions. I was never brought up to celebrate anyone's death but the pain she brought to Latin America, Europe and around the world should be remembered.

"I would rather that Thatcherism was dead because she is mostly to blame for what is going on today.

"She is responsible, but not solely, for the massive gap between the rich and the poor."

About 200 people gathered by St George’s Hall in Liverpool and a similar number met in Brixton, the scene of some of the worst rioting during Margaret Thatcher's time as Prime Minister, to celebrate her demise.

Outside the Ritzy cinema, they played music and drank as a party atmosphere in the evening contrasted with the more respectful tone earlier in the day. They chanted: "Maggie, Maggie, Maggie, Dead, Dead, Dead".

Saul Adamczewski, 24, from Camberwell, had a banner saying 'the bitch is dead'. He said: "We are here for a celebration. I have never seen such a joyous atmosphere for someone's death.

"She was so particularly evil and hated by everyone; there are 12-year-olds here. I wasn't even alive to witness most of her reign but people are here because of the effects of it.

"It is the celebration of the end of a tyrant. And Brixton is the right place to do it."

Jonny Middleton, 22, unemployed, from Essex, said: "No one is celebrating the death of a mother or a grandmother. It is an opportunity to all get together and say 'Maggie, you were an awful person' and acknowledge that.”
