Signed - Was gonna type "Over my dead body" but the way this country is going it would be all too true very soon!
There are many, many more worthy people than Snatcher, why aren't they being recognised? Newton, Bell, Shakespeare......they only time they (have been/will get) recognised is on a postage stamp! Then again, Snatcher on a postage stamp will give many people the opportunity to kiss her goodbye and thump her flat

Ohh I'll buy me flag!
Maybe you'd rather have a Harold Wilson day or James Callaghan day. Maybe even a Tony Blair day or even Gordon Brown day although I don't honestly think any of them would be considered worthy of anything except how not to run a country.
What ever they call it it's still going to be the August Bank holiday.
Can anyone remember 'Coat-a-sheep-in-raspberry-jam' week? Didn't think so.

Maybe the day shouldnt be named after ANY politician. That would suit me just fine. I cant see this bill going through at all....
i'm surprised nobody has mentioned
White Settlers day
Incomers day
Whinging Gits day
Ranting day
Trolling day
Same Old day
Sassenach day
Immigrant day
and the list goes on.....and on.....and on.....just like some of the rants on here

What sould we do on Iron Ladyday? Apart from just rejoice rejoice!
How about we all go to a Thatcher supper, where a guy dressed up as Ben Elton presents the immortal memory of "Fatcha?"
Then a policeman delivers the Toast to the Miners and we burn a model of HMS Sheffield.
we can all have a laugh but the HMS Sheffield "joke" is in extremely bad taste! 20 crew lost their lives in the attack.
