Could Joy Linford (Opinion, July 12), be the last true-blue Thatcherite in town? Probably not, but I always try to live in hope.
The crude market forces unleashed during Thatcher's government ripped apart everything that had previously been regarded as decent, civilised values and replaced them with an ugly, self-serving materialism.
Everything that is nasty and brutish about modern Britain is the direct result of this period of economic and social madness.
The blame lies fairly and squarely with those who elected the Tories in 1979 and subsequently voted to keep them in office for 18 years and it is time they faced up to it.
