Margaret Thatcher memorial museum to be built at Grimethorpe ...

The "British News" site reports here that

"David Cameron has brassed off residents of the former mining area Grimethorpe by choosing it as the location for the Margaret Thatcher Museum, dubbed ‘Thatcherland’. Seen as a controversial choice due to their hatred of Margaret Thatcher, residents have described the news as striking."

NB - although there actually is a plan for a Thatcher memorial institute, it is a private project which will not be seeking taxpayers' money and is unlikely to be built on the site of a former coal mine. For the benefit of anyone who has had their sense of humour surgically removed, the article is a "spoof."

Quite a sad day. Both Charles Kennedy and Peter Troy died today.
