Labour's growing amnesia

A letter in the Newcastle Evening Chronicle tonight reads, "The sight of Mrs Thatcher in the doorway of number 10 Downing Street with David Cameron surely sends shockwaves to the North East." A rant about the killing-all-first-born tendency of the Coalition government then followed.

The author of these comments is someone called Nick Kemp, a Labour councillor in Newcastle. I wonder what his thoughts were three years ago when Gordon Brown invited Margaret Thatcher to Downing Street and then paraded her in front of the media. Or has he conveniently forgotten his then leader's actions? Watch out for bucketloads of Labour amnesia in the coming weeks and months.
