T-shirts looking forward to celebrating Margaret Thatcher’s death are “proving very popular with trade unionists” at the annual Trades Union Congress.

Nothing like longing for your enemy’s death to usher in an era of utopian egalitarian harmony.

From here:

T-shirts celebrating the eventual death of Margaret Thatcher – on sale at the TUC conference – have been condemned.

Tory MPs called the garments “beyond the pale” and “sickening”. TUC general secretary Brendan Barber called them “tasteless and inappropriate”.

The T-shirts were proving “very popular” with trade unionists, stall holder Colin Hampton said.

Baroness Thatcher, 86, has been in declining health in recent years and has withdrawn from public life.
