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 the helm of a fading Britain
The sick man of Europe
As it had come to be known
But she to accept that decay
Was inevitable
And that the job of the British governmen
Was to manage decline
Britain, should believed, do better
"Some seem to believe
That people be numbers in a state computer
We believe they should be individuals
We're all unequal
No one, heavens, is quite like anyone else
However the socialists
May pretend otherwise
And we that everyone
Has the right to be unequal
But to us
Every human being is equally important"
And while she had no of critics
"The Prime Minister is that
I detest every one of her domestic policies
And I have never hidden fact"
"I think the Gentleman knows
That I have the same contempt
For his policies
As the the people of east Europe
Who have experienced them..."
She was in her faith
That her conservative vision was right
"One of the great debates of our time
Is about how much of your money
Should be 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 you more
And it's no thinking someone else will pay
That someone else is you"
She knew what Ronald Reagan knew
That free markets and a free people
Are the best against tyranny
And peace comes through strength
Not accommodation
"Mr. Speaker
Wars are not caused
By the build-up of weapons
are caused when an aggressor
he can achieve his objectives
At an price"
now stands at a crossroads
One path leads to deficits
Decreasing and decline
The other a renewed 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 your own choices
And, above all
The peace of a country
Which is properly defended
Against any potential adversary"
As we take stock of our choices
The legacy of Britain's Iron Lady
Remains a steadfast guide
