All Irish people are liars.

Well, according to Margaret Thatcher.

British cabinet minister Peter Mandelson stated in an interview and a conversation he had with Thatcher.

“It was the day I was appointed Northern Ireland secretary and our paths crossed.

“She came up to me and she said, ’I’ve got one thing to say to you, my boy … you can’t trust the Irish, they are all liars’, she said, ’liars, and that’s what you have to remember, so just don’t forget it’.

“With that she waltzed off and that was my only personal exposure to her.”

Well now, what do the Thatcher apologists have to say about this racist, arrogant and obnoxious woman? Imagine for example, if the comment was made about jewish people, arab people or black people, there would be mass uproar.
