Thatcher - I like a ba'ath

Margaret Thatcher today spoke out in a conference which saw her pay tribute to "all that the Ba'ath party had achieved during their term in office". She also paid tribute to their landslide victory last year, with a clear majority of 100%.

"They are obviously a model Government" she continued "to attract an almost complete turnout, and all in favour of this party". A feat almost as credible as Thatcher's own achievements in winning three successive general elections, and leading from 1979-1990.

Thatcher was today at the Lockwood Amateur Dramatics Society, opening their new theatre. "It is a pleasure" she said, "to open this beautiful theatre. I do like a good opera". She concluded her speech with "and best of luck to all who sail in her." This joke was greeted with a chortling audience of 14.

The funny story above is a satire or parody. It is entirely fictitious.
