SOCIAL NONENTITY

We revisit below, for the edification and delectation of our readers, a celebrated remark by Mrs Margaret Thatcher, the reactionary and iconoclastic UK Tory Prime Minister from 1979 to 1990.  It was originally published in ‘Women’s Own’ magazine on 31 October 1987.

There is no such thing as Society. There are individual men and women, and there are families.

Comment by Antigone1984:

We suspect that the Mob might agree.
