Anger at Thatcher death T-shirts on sale at TUC
T-shirts celebrating the eventual death of Margaret Thatcher - on sale at the TUC conference - have been condemned.
Tory MPs called the garments "beyond the pale" and "sickening". TUC general secretary Brendan Barber called them "tasteless and inappropriate".
The T-shirts were proving "very popular" with trade unionists, stall holder Colin Hampton said.
Baroness Thatcher, 86, has been in declining health in recent years and has withdrawn from public life.
Mr Hampton defended the T-shirts as representing "many" people's view of the former PM.
Lady Thatcher is unpopular with many trade unionists, who blame her for the "erosion" of workers' rights during the 1980s and the decline of industries including mining and heavy manufacturing.
Lady Thatcher's supporters argue that she revitalised the economy and improved the UK's standing in the world by bringing in free market reforms and reducing the influence of powerful trade unions.

Does it come in a "Bill Clinton"?
...Damn, I guess that wouldn't make sense given the trade-union relationship to the Dems. But Regan is already dead and Bill deserves equal blame and hatred in my book.
Finally the TUC actually does something worthwhile.

I'm kind of interested in what relationship British trade unions have had with the American Democrats.

The TUC condemned them. It was an example of good old Thatcherite private enterprise that provided them.
Y'all know about the plan for the Saturday after she dies? Big party in Trafalger Square.

Yep.
It's going to be a sad day for Class War (or whatever remnants of it still exist in whatever way), they've spent the last twenty years flogging hurry up and die stickers and will be completely stumped for what to do the morning after that party.

I for one think that's grotesque.Dancing on Reagan's Grave and Pissing on Nixon's
We're fighting the system, not the people.
My over-riding feeling when the ***** pops her clogs will be one of relief and closure, not one of joy. I think it's a bit pathetic that people have so little ability to focus on current struggles, that their little 'victories' involve looking forward to the death of a demented 80 something who doesn't know the difference anymore between a cat and a dog. Thatcher is dead to me already, that's enough.
That is a mighty fine steed with which you arrived, though it is time for you to dismount.
meh. I just don't think shit like pissing on the graves of the dead achieves anything, it's a bit juvenile isn't it?
Your high horse would be a lot taller if you hadn't so callously called Thatcher a "*****."
Come roll in the mud with the rest of us. You'll be better for it.
P.S. You can take this as a verbal, blah blah.
It doesn't acheive anything because they're dead. They probably didn't even notice.
My biggest problem is that it's a lone action. Unlike the mass action that will, I hope, occur when Thatcher dies.

I bought a bottle of champagne when I heard Pinochet died, although I didn't drink it till sometime later. I didn't do anything special when Reagan died, just another day.In hindsight I probably should have celebrated somewhere. When the greengrocer's daughter kicks it hopefully It'll be when I'm with like minded friends and we can celebrate in style.
Yeah, naughty I know...
To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget
