Margaret Thatcher interview | An interview with the Prime Minister | This Week | 1987

This is the first major TV interview Mrs. Thatcher has given since the Election. In the six. months since then world stock markets have crashed and the advance of popular capitalism does not look as inevitable as it once did. The continuing crisis in the Health Service and the Government’s revolutionary plans for education have made a controversial beginning to the next five years.
What sort of society does Mrs. Thatcher want to be in place when she retires from public office?

The fact is that people loved her, her own ministers eventually didnt have the balls (so to speak) to stick by her.

    Sadly, Gillian Anderson’s impersonation of Margaret Thatcher was a narrow caricature which missed the nuances that made Thatcher such an engaging personality. She did not capture Thatcher’s twinkly eyes and smiles. She did not capture the speed or fluency of Thatcher’s delivery and the way she occasionally slowed down, deepened her voice and steadied her gaze in order to emphasise an important point. If Thatcher had been anything like the living corpse that Gillian Anderson has given us, she would have bored everyone to death and would not have been elected PM three times in 1979, 1983 and 1987.

    Mrs Thatcher was not only beautiful but had the finest brain in the country. Even though she genuinely adored the monarchy it is understandable that the Queen felt intimidated by her. The Queen had no proper education and obviously felt intimidated by her. The series TheCrown showed what a foolish lot the royals were and how crude and ignorant they were in treating their guests. The film The Iron Lady was unacceptable . There should have been a film made celebrating all her brilliant qualities. I am old now but Margaret Thatcher was to me one of the best women in the past and present years. If only we could find someone else with her qualities.

    But far more people liked her. You don't win 3 General Elections in a row by being so unpopular. If people looked at Jeremy Corbyn and his supporters, with all their chanting, you would have thought he was incredibly popular and sure to win the 2019 Election. And we all know how that worked out. Personal popularity is not as important as trust in politics and the people with their childish and vitriolic attacks on Margaret Thatcher should, perhaps, grow up.

    There needs to be a middle ground. Nowadays there seems to be an assumption that a politician must be lying and so it becomes trying to get a “GOTCHA!” moment This interview is too deferential; Thatcher is given quite substantial time to answer and her answers are not actually challenged or dissected any further. There needs to be a balance - Politicians need to be given room to answer a question; but interviewers should also be able to push back when answers are unsatisfactory

And was honest in her answers. Never promised unrealistic ideals, which some leaders are too prone to do. As a South African 🇿🇦 It's dissapointing she didn't sign sanctions against Apartheid as part of the commonwealth but will ALWAYS have mad respect for her as a woman in a man's world.

    @@jaredt8526 I half agree with you on that point. The thing is the ANC and other freedom fighting movements were fighting for political freedom first at the time. The ANC's policy was first to gain political freedom and then work towards economic freedom. However, after gaining political freedom, and even though they have been in power for all of our democratioc dispensation, they have not achieved this. So I understand why she was not for it because what happens after gaining political freedom? So yes, she was right in the long-term, but she could have helped towards political freedom at least? Her views on the ANC and other political struggle heroes was also not favourable. But that is a debate for another time entirely that I am not equipped to argue about that just yet and this is also a very nuanced and complex issue to discuss. And even though South Africa did not gain economic freedom yet, the way the west likes to do things is just leave their mess where they made it. So I half agree with you.

It must be a hard job to use tax payers money and use it wisely, which I believe she has done, and spend it to fund the NHS, education/schools, defence, social security etc etc and still keep every one happy. There are many big mouths who have something to say and yet she got up to PM and did something about her passion for the people. I personally loved her.

I can't imagine any politician doing that today. If RFK Jr. won the 2024 election, I could maybe see him doing it, but it would be tainted by the stench of appeasement in his foreign policy beliefs.
