Modern politicians are faceless drones
With very few obvious redeeming features
Insipid civil servile test tube clones
Slithering around like spineless creatures..

The blurred definitions of right and left
Only serve to smudge the party lines
Absurd grey robots ideologically bereft
Make me hanker after harsher times.

I despise George Bush, I never trusted Blair
When it comes to David Cameron, I'm a little bit scared
But I still fuckin' hate Thatcher,
I still fuckin' hate Thatcher !

Thatcher wants a state funeral,
With a twenty-one gun salute
So you bring yours and I'll bring mine,
Tucked inside a mourning suit..

A bus load of musicians,
Will be lining up to play
To entertain the millions,
Who'll be dancing on her grave.

I despise George Bush, I never trusted Blair
When it comes to David Cameron, be a little bit scared
But I still fuckin' hate Thatcher,
I still fuckin' hate Thatcher !!

I despise George Bush, I never trusted Blair
When it comes to David Cameron, be a little bit scared
But I still fuckin' hate Thatcher,
I still fuckin' hate Thatcher !!

For the Unions, the squaddies and the unemployed
For all the lives that bitch destroyed
For all the souls she bought and sold
The miners left out in the cold

Close communities torn asunder
All the people she had murdered
All the victims of corporate greed
Prisoners of conscience never freed

For all she did and all she said
We should all rejoice when Thatcher's dead.

Ken Loach su Margaret Thatcher

kenloach


«Margaret Thatcher è stata il primo ministro più controverso e distruttivo dei tempi moderni», ha sostenuto Ken Loach. «La disoccupazione di massa, la chiusura di fabbriche, le comunità distrutte: questa è la sua eredità. Era una combattente e il suo nemico era la classe operaia inglese. Le sue vittorie sono state aiutate dai capi politici corrotti del Partito laburista e di molti sindacati. È a causa di politiche avviate da lei che siamo in questo casino oggi». Loach ha avuto parole pesanti anche per Tony Blair: «Se la Thatcher era la suonatrice di organetto, lui era la scimmia». E ha ricordato l’amicizia tra il dittatore cileno Augusto Pinochet e la Thatcher, la quale «ha chiamato Nelson Mandela terrorista». Come dovremmo onorarla dunque, si è chiesto il regista. «Privatizziamo il suo funerale. Lo mettiamo sul mercato e accettiamo l’offerta più economica. È quello che avrebbe voluto».
