@izzythepush,
Is there a national difference in being British and Swedish?
27 years or 23 years are not such a big difference.
The Swedes seem to have picked up the pieces and done a lot of repairs - the British are still suffering..
Or does it have to do with one was a conservative leader and the other one a socialistic leader?
Both contraversial, both hated, both same generation, both prime minesters.
He called Margaret Thatcher “a true extremist”.
What she called him I do not know.
