What a fabulous idea!

That would be a pretty short interview, probably only a couple of minutes. Both too discrete for a long conversation.

….and Nigella Lawson, the daughter of the Exchequer during MT time

Exceptionally interesting and lovely lady. I would like to be friends with her.

@@jane_7193 She'd be great fun to have as a friend, I feel sure. 👍🏻

@@jane_7193no no no not a thatcher

Just like her other!

mother😂

Yes, me too.

Yes. She’s simple

Yes.. This is what life can be like when you have never had to do a day's work in your life. Brilliant, isn't she?

You’ve probably had to work like a dog in yours and always will do and still achieve nothing. It’s called Darwinism. Some people were just born to remain in the dung heap. If you procreate your offspring will curse your genes. Use a condo!

​@@alfsmith4936😂😂👍😁

Very interesting Thatcher was formidable and probably scary to live with

A lot of us older women had formidable mothers.

@@marysteven6347that’s why stayed on the straight and narrow. We had no nonsense mothers who worked hard and put a brave face on every day. Just got on with it.

😮😮😮😮

As a non-Australian and non-Briton you a triggered a very dreadful memory. John Fisher, a past chancellor of the Unerversity of Cambridge was executed by Henry VIII, having a previous poisoning attempt fail.

Did she do anything good for children for example during the years at the number 10? Raised any money for the poor, disabled or for schools, any kind of charity work as she has had an opportunity to do so much, being where she was!! The answer is No!! Nothing!

@@E-Kat What? Her mother was the PM, not her. Why would she be required to do any of the things you suggest? She was 26 and already had her own career in Australia when her mother became PM and did not live in No 10 at all. You might bother to look a few things up before spouting nonsense.

Forgot to add that one is never required to do these things, one desires to do them, to use the opportunity when one is capable of raising more money than others, due to one's status. I hope, I've explained it satisfactorily. 😊

​@@E-Katgrow up!

Carol has always worked quietly in the background to help others. She is a generous and unselfish person.

really you believe this.

It's not easy when you have a Divisive Mother as PM.

@@SanFran51 to say the least!

What an interesting woman👍

Can't help but feel that her Twin brother was the favourite in her Mum's eyes!!!!!!!!!!

I think Carol is a lovely person. No one as honest, kind genuine as Carol:-)

So you know her personally ??..

I loved her mum - the greatest PM since Churchill

@@matthewstokes1608 churchill was never a mum ...

I find her quite ordinary, she just repeats what's been said to her by her father and advisors. She doesn't go out of her way to empathise. Thatcher's legacy = blood on her hands but Carol has zero curiosity about people might think that. It's the Conservative strategy to just simply block out what you don't want to hear.

@@deborahcurtis1385you're correct! Selective memory is their strategy! Ruthless , power hungry family, who'd go over the dead bodies to get ahead in life. This interview did not touch a single important subject! I suppose, she's not allow any questions that matter. No guilt whatsoever!!! Others supposed to feel sorry for their ancestors keeping slaves but it's ok for Carol Thatcher to ignore the carnage her mother had caused!! People with CJD still suffer the consequences of her mother's actions! But this subject is banned from TV! We are learning from the NK how to manage our country by censorship!

Thatcher was magnificent. Quite possibly the greatest PM the UJ has ever had.

@@E-Kat Why should Carol Thatcher have to answer for anything her mother may have done? She wasn't personally responsible for any of it and I very much doubt she had any say in it of any kind. You are the sort who would tell me I am responsible for what a very small number of British people did 400 years ago, aren't you?

Quite good looking back in the day too !!

Why,???the Thatchers were and are a very wealthy family .

What's wealth got to do with anything ...

......yeah we ALL realise the folly of our youth when we age!

Maggie’s dad was a grocer with a small shop in Grantham. Her husband however was avery sharp cookie and did make a pile of dough.

@@user-gq6ic6ri3r why does her heart need to go out to her ???

Doesn't say much but talks a lot...

@@DerrakoThat’s why she’s pure fun! Amazing how she’s exactly the opposite of her mother in that way.

I agree!👍

@@peretzooften happens that way.

@@Derrako Bit like your comment 🤣🤣

В каком смысле приземленный? В смысле примитивный? Или в смысле простой?

I see down to earth as being honest, straightforward and accepting of reality rather than being someone that tries to pretend they're something they're not. In carol thatchers case, i think calling her down to earth is a fair description.​@@januariyarosaliya3286

Hello how are you doing?

She was on TV but was cancelled.

She has been on I'm a Celebrity and she was brilliant on it.

She must be so ashamed at heart to have had such an awful, nasty mother.

@@norwegianzound give it a rest

Why then was she banned from the BBC?

Well the BBC is in my view and the view of enormous numbers of disappointed people left wing propaganda outfit that is so drenching in its thought management that had Goebbels lived he would have been dumbstruck by the breadth and depth of the social control offering.@@normanchristie4524

You scrag end. Her mother was the best PM since Disraeli. Wash your foul mind out.@@norwegianzound

Is she a she? Just asking.

​@@kellyprice1024It's a Qanon obsession apparently to question almost every woman's gender. It's horribly misogynistic and all began with Michelle Obama cos she happens to have broad shoulders. What a crime!! 🙄

She really is!

I thought the same! She certainly takes after Denis in looks and speech.

There's nothing wrong with letting off steam at all.

I dont know if this was the event you are referring to or a different one but I clearly remember reading about on one of her state visits abroad Mrs Thatcher was horrified to see small children dressed on a freezing day in skimpy costumes about to perform some kind of dance to greet her. Apparently she said via her translator "You either get these children some warm clothes immediately or I am leaving now!"

@@sjwhittingham4394 The one I saw was in London .But if you also remember a similar occasion it shows her admirable concern

Pity she stole their milk.

@@faydoveYes she introduced Rickets back to the UK for the first time since WW2. She took away the FREE school milk. with that kind gesture👀 true.

And much more distruction for workers. The list is a long one and the pain is felt to this day.

She was racist towards a guest , as I recall, used some old fashioned language, maybe didn't mean to offend, but some words and terms belong in the past and aren't acceptable and as a fully grown educated person she should know that, and noone owes her a media career.

@@AndyRossism It was a comment about a tennis player who wasn't a guest. She said it in the green room. Lazy language which I won't repeat, but I think she 70.

@@AndyRossismSo you are wrong. Your recollection is wrong.

Though I understand words can do more harm sometimes than physical violence. History shows that. But, words, taken out of perspective for one's own political agenda, that's just scary.

@@shuddupeyafacethere is only one context for that word. But you have to be on the receiving end to recognise the abuse. You people never fail to amaze me KMT.

Can you quote one intelligent sentence, please? Anything of any substance. Repeating the shallow questions back to the terrified reporter is her forte!

​@@E-Katno matter what, she is extremely articulate, a clear demonstration of her intelligence and a great memory.

Don't be so rude!

Her mother was never interesting or lively . Her mother was horrid ! Always was !

I think Carol has taken after her dad luckily

I owned one too and loved it! We now live in the modern age where they try and make us awful people of that time,but I believe we have a better understanding of how the world develops. We had no hate as they like to think we had in those days!

@@maggiem.1539 Enoch Powell and no blacks and no irish says otherwise - that was based on hatred.

@@maggiem.1539I can only assume you love those grotesque toys, because you weren’t blessed with an abundance of melanin. I was born in the 1960’s, and that depiction was regularly used as a racist insult and slur throughout my childhood. Intersectionality only exists for a minority of women. The sooner BW realise, and accept that not all women are their allies, and that some of them are just as racist as their men, the better! What a breeze it must be to only have to concern yourself with sexism!

I’ve never understood this. I had such a toy but it was no more real to me than the stuffed dog my sister had and in the innocence of childhood you don’t make those connections

🙄🙄🙄
