An estimated 15,000,000 have promised to cavort on Baroness Thatchers grave, without stopping to consider the practicalities.
A Health & Safety Executive spokesman said: Its not the Ministry of Sound or something, its going to be some sort of oblong roughly the size of an old lady.
Were concerned about levels of overcrowding and also the slipperiness as people fulfill their secondary aim of urinating on the former PMs remains.
Its a potential disaster zone. Thatchers grave could be the biggest threat to the NHS since Thatcher.

(20,816 posts)non-jokingly suggested that, instead of the state paying three million pounds for her funeral, it be privatized and then handed over to the lowest bidder as tribute to the "free market" she so lovingly championed. At the expense of entire industries and millions of workers, of course. They were trying to get people to see the ridiculousness of her uber-free market holy rolling, as well as expressing their irritation that the state is spending any money at all on her funeral when there's an economic crisis with so many in desperate need. Not that she'd give a shit about that.
I think my favorite facebook post on her so far has been the one that said that "her funeral will cost the state an estimated three million pounds. But for the same amount of money, they could buy shovels for every person in Scotland, who could then all dig a grave deep enough to hand her over to Satan in person." LOLOLOL.

"4) If, because of some bad planning, you find yourself at a fancy drinks party, talking to a Conservative, say: Go and get me 14 of those mini pizzas. NOW!
5) If someone says my grandad was a miner, put on a ridiculous ecky-thump accent and dance about like a monkey until they chase you from the room."

I'm dying laughing. My family were Welsh. You know, where they have a lot of mines. They'll be drunk for weeks in Wales but nobody'll be able to tell it. The songs will just be a tad more joyful.
