Can we have a Margaret Thatcher topic please?

[Sparklingbrook]

I think any comments on here may put all the AH stuff in the shade.

She LOVES kittens so much they live in her house and her kids live outin a shed.

TRUFACT

Yes I double checked before I posted

me to = you see Sparkers is there like a flipping flash

Afternoon. And thanks for the suggestion.

We'll see how it goes, we think.

With any big news event, we tend to get quite a few threads as the story breaks - that's quite normal - and trying to corrall them into one thread would be almost impossible.

However, if, as with the Madeleine McCann ones, the threads continue to proliferate for days and days and days on end, we will look at trying to have one official thread - just for sanity's sake.

We have posted on some of the Thatcher threads already to remind people that, though we have no problem with folks expressing strong opinions about Thatcher's political legacy, we will delete posts that we consider to be beyond the pale. And, just for clarity, we would consider posts about 'dancing on her grave' to be beyond the pale.

I must have it hidden already Knee.

and the kittens helen?

Thanks HelenMN.

Kittens?

Wow, you got quoted in the DM, Sparkling!
I bow down to your presence, for I am not worthy.
How comes I missed that thread, back in 2012? I seek out sleb-twaddle threads, like a moth to a flame.

oh it was just me trying to slander you and LURE you onto the thread

Darn, it worked!

thanks, helen

I didn't even remember the thread from 2012 TBH. I feel really horrible about it all.

No, don't feel horrid!
You certainly don't seem horrid.

It'll all be over in about a week. Not worth setting up a separate topic for because you know no-one would use it anyway

Do you consider "ding dong the witch is dead" to be acceptable then MNHQ?

I think I might hide in here too, if that's ok.

Thank goodness for the hide button!

Don't feel horrid. 2012 is a stupidly long time ago for them to quote from and pretend that it's relevant today.

On another note, I've just hidden the MT threads. I thoroughly enjoyed it

theres the whole funeral yet

{Heaves sigh of relief and pulls up chair}

I didn't even think of that Lady.

Nope. We deleted that one a while ago.

There's one that slipped through the net, Helen. Have sent a report of the post.

I didn't realise that people were actually so horrid. I think I'll stay in my bubble today.

I've hidden about four in the past 20mins, actually it was a toss-up between hiding or clicking to see who all the grave dancers were, for future reference and all.

I've opted for hiding.

Just don't try to reason with them, Fenton

Hiding is the only option.

I've hidden 5 threads so far.

If it was all in one topic I could hide the entire thing and go about oblivious.
And, can you make people put "this is a Margaret thatcher thread" in the title please so I can just hide it without opening it?
Rather than having to open a thread and then go AAARRGGGHHH when I realise it's another grave dancing thread.

Ta.
