She was only a grocer's daughter

We know there are more pressing political issues to debate on this of all days, the tenth anniversary of Blair coming to power, but it follows on from a private discussion - how many songs are there that are unequivocally anti-Thatcher? We came up with Tramp The Dirt Down, Margaret On The Guillotine, The Day That Thatcher Dies, Stand Down Margaret and the Blow Monkeys' Celebrate (The Day After You), but surely there's more if you look outside full scale leftie-ism or two chord punk. Anyone?

The Pet Shop Boys have said that Kings Cross was about Thatcherism. Also, their 'The Theatre' was prompted by a tory mp who described the homeless as "people you step over when you leave the theatre"

You missed the rather excellent Margaret's Injection by Kitchens Of Distinction (from their Elephantine EP if memory serves).

wasn't "Good Morning Britain" by Aztec Camera and Mick Jones an anti-Thatcher record? ("...ten long years and we've still got her...")?

Does The Specials doing 'Maggie's Farm' count?

Also, Billy Bragg has a B-side called 'Thatcherites' which I haven't actually heard, but I think I can guess.

Surely something by the Redskins? Or the Exploited?

Fine Young Cannibals' 'Blue' ("life would be better if I never ever had to live with you, Blue - it's a colour so cruel") was a rather strongly worded rejoinder to Thatcher, and was apparently cold-shouldered by Radio 1 as a result. Plus there's also Roger Waters' scorn for the "Bus Stop ratbag" from 'Pigs (Three Different Ones)', which actually dates from before she became PM.
