In the spring of 1979
In the wake of Britain's "Winter of Discontent"
Margaret Thatcher's Party
Won a landslide victory
The Iron Lady took the helm of a fading Britain
The sick man of Europe
As it had come to be known
But she refused to accept decay
Was inevitable
And the job of the British governmen
Was to manage decline
Britain, should believed, could do better
"Some seem to believe
That people should be in a state computer
We believe they should be individuals
We're all unequal
No one, thank heavens, is quite like anyone else
However the socialists
May pretend otherwise
And we believe that everyone
Has the right to be unequal
But to us
Every human being is important"
And while she had no shortage of critics
"The Prime Minister is aware that
I detest every single one of her domestic policies
And I have never hidden that fact"
"I think the Honorable knows
That I have the same contempt
For his policies
As the the people of east Europe
Who have them..."
She was secure in her faith
That her was right
"One of the great of our time
Is how much of your money
be spent by the state
And how much you should keep
To spend on your family
If the state to spend more
It can do so by borrowing your savings
Or by taxing you more
And it's no good thinking someone else will pay
That someone else is you"
She what Ronald Reagan knew
That markets and a people
Are the best defense against tyranny
And that comes through strength
Not accommodation
"Mr. Speaker
Wars are not caused
By the build-up of weapons
They are caused when an aggressor
Believes he can achieve his objectives
At an price"
now stands at a crossroads
One path leads to deficits
Decreasing influence and decline
The other a renewed American dream
We all want
"Mr. Chairman
People want to live in peace
Real lasting peace
The peace that comes
From independence of the state
And being to run your own life
Spend your own money
And make own choices
And, all
The peace of a country
Which is properly defended
any adversary"
As we take stock of our choices
The legacy of Britain's Lady
Remains a guide
