Keir Starmer hails Margaret Thatcher as ‘right’ on crime as he launches Labour’s law and order plan

Okay, let's take a step back here. While it's fair to criticize Thatcher's policies and their impact on the UK, it's important to have a nuanced discussion and avoid exaggerating the situation.

Yes, Thatcher's policies were controversial and had some negative consequences, particularly for specific industries and regions of the country. But it's inaccurate to say that they "unequivocally" damaged the UK as a whole. Her policies also had some positive effects, particularly in revitalizing the UK economy and creating new opportunities for growth and innovation.

So let's avoid sweeping statements and hyperbole. It's a complex issue that requires a nuanced discussion based on the facts. And let's not forget that while Thatcher may have made some mistakes and implemented policies that had negative consequences, she was also a political figure who accomplished significant achievements during her time in office.
