Thatcher will Pay

Thatcher will Pay

Dear Stephen,

Following the Easter rising of 1916 in Ireland, the British had to give Connolly a chair to sit on while they shot him, the reason being that he was so weak from his wounds and close to dying and was unable to stand up to face the firing squad.

Margaret Thatcher is right, "a crime is a crime is a crime" and the British are paying for their crime and Thatcher will pay for hers.
