Margaret Thatcher championed countless unpopular policies in her own country during her time as Prime Minister of Britain, and made staunch enemies in the process. So staunch in fact, that celebrations of her death have been fairly widespread in Britain since her passing on Monday.

Over 200 people attended one such party party in Brixton, which was advertised on social networks with the hashtag, #nowthatthatchersdead.

Depending on your political bent, your hate for Thatcher would rest on things including, but limited to:

• Her push toward widespread privatisation of the British economy, leading to mass lay-offs in industrial sectors.
• Banning milk from schools, resulting in the financial ruin of many shareholders in the British dairy industry
• Her provocation of Argentina over the Faulkland Islands, to the point of war.
• Her uncompromising stance in favour of mine bosses during widespread strike action in that sector.

Take a look at some of the festivities that took place on account of Thatchers death, would you have been there?

The celebrations turned violent at a number of locations, resulting in damaged property and injuries to police officers.

The Telegraph states:

They want to protest at the injustice of Thatcher parading her wealth and status through the streets of London, when so many live and die in poverty as a result of her policies.

A number of group pages are threatening riots, should plans for Thatcher’s state funeral go ahead.
