Isn't it...

Of course it was Thatcher who initiated the majority of the trades union
reforms. Things like postal ballots and so on.

In the union I was in, it made not a scrap of difference to the outcome of
any ballot. The results were always as predicted.

Which just showed the likes of Thatcher and her advisors were totally out
of touch with the real world of trades unions. In other words they
believed what they read in the gutter press, rather than doing their own
research.
