There was some touching news-reel yesterday of a group of veteran Para's corralling Maggie (who was dressed in devastating pink!) during the 'Falklands 25' commemorations. Rather than berating the old baggage for causing the death of all their old mates, they were seeking to shake her gently by the hand, awe plain to see in their eyes at coming across her........ calling out her name.

The British do love a winner don't they.....

Well she did take the role of their Commander in Chief (usurping Mrs Queen) in their march past when they came home.

Yup. The damage to Higher Education completely scuppered my hopes of a career. Evil bitch, I almost wish I believed in the existence of Hell so I'd something to look forward to when she joins her pal Pinochet…
