Today's Observer contains a fascinating article detailing Mrs. T's formative years in Grantham. We're treated to a Freudian psychoanalytic insight with regards to the development of Maggie's political philosophy:
"Monetarism was an expression of her pathological anal retention (the Big Bang of deregulation was symbolic of her secret desire for explosive release). Her hatred of the nanny state was a response to her own absence of the "suckling breast", her extraordinary insistence on self-reliance an expression of her unconscious desire to destroy her guilty sexual feelings for her father."
Yeah.
