seriously lordganon, how the hell am i biased? this is alternative history, not the real thing. Thats like saying anyone who writes a nazi victory TL is a neo-nazi, or anyone who writes a american civil war TL is a racist.

thatcher would not have won a 1991 election with a majority government, we dont know for certain (This is ALTERNATIVE HISTORY, everything is speculation) but it is likely, and the greater historical consensus is that she would not have won an election. At the same time, the tories would still have got the most votes, and be the largest party.

Accusing me of bias just because you disagree is a lazy argument, and one that is beneath you. I have set out my case (and a strong one in my view) that after the deep unpopularity of the poll tax Thatcher would not have won a fourth term in office, and that it was only Major's personal popularity that led the tories to victory otl.

If you disagree, then thats fine, but dont just accuse me of bias because of my own personal views. It really is beneath you.
