I totally agree with you VHG.

James Callagahan when asked about the crisis facing the country that you've mentioned, upon his return from somewhere out of the country.....

"Crisis, what crisis?"

She was exactly what the country needed and she negotiated vast repayments from the EU when she was in power.

A great PM.

James Callaghan did not say "Crisis, what crisis?"

You shouldn't believe everything you read in the Sun, which made it up.

Everyone seems to have forgotten the days and days of negotiations with the Argentinians brokered by the US that failed, because they refused to leave the Falklands.

You're talking rot jno, to be expected given your anti British stance I suppose. The main cause of the Falklands was military Junta who needed a "get out of jail free card" from their collapsing economy.

Good Post VHG, I remember the 1970's well. Margaret Thatcher taught the unions that the government runs the country, not them and it was a lesson long overdue.
Happy Birthday Maggie.

Remind me who lost the Falklands again

The Unions I think it was wasn't it? or was it "the last labour government"

Tell me - if someone set fire to their house and then attacked it and put it out with a garden hose - would you think they were a hero or an idiot?

The word was 'CHAOS' not 'CRISIS'.

/// 1979: 'No chaos here' declares Callaghan
The Prime Minister, James Callaghan, has flown back into strike-torn Britain denying allegations the country is in chaos. ///

That's right AOG. I knew he'd been abroad.

Bayboy1, Mrs Thatcher never said those words.

The mines that were closed were clapped out. They were finished and were costing the country millions in subsidies. Labour and the unions tried to say they were viable and some were given to them as a so called management buy out . Not one were successful.

Did Heath, Wilson and Callaghan get state funerals?#
