    Don't think too many would buy Thatcher the Milk Snatcher's stamp. I will buy Harold Wilson's stamp though. The only PM to say no to the yanks. Oh Ded, Tony is doing very well for himself and Cherie must have been a good lawyer to earn her millions. . Rolling in money. .

    I agree, taking the milk away (then) was wrong.

    But...looking at the state of a lot of schoolkids now, extra nourishment is the last thing they need.

    I would imagine Margaret Thatcher stamps will be the most popular!

    Totally disagree most kids did not drink their 1/3 pint of lukewarm milk-it was disgusting.

    Made no difference to anyone.

    Redundant Graham - like a lot of other jobs. But that's the Tory way. .

    C'mon Andy, stop being so aggressive toward the Tories, it seems that you've become obsessed with being that way!
