Margaret Thatcher, the first woman Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, died April 8, 2013 at 83. She was seen by many in the British labour movement as not only anti-union but also destructive to a caring society. She is most remembered for her attack on the mineworker' union during a 1984-85 strike. RadioLabour explores why she was hated by many workers in the country. Download (Right click)
