Why hasn't Margaret Thatcher been charged with inciting riots?

Question

re: the poll-tax. So many people ended up in prison, with criminal records- losing everything, to try and defend poor pensioners etc.,

and all because the Prime Minster was h**l-bent on introducing a money-raising scheme that had failed before when the peasants revolted.

Answer 3

The sad truth is that politicians get away with murder and literally get away with it.

Answer 5

Answer 8

Margaret  Thatcher is a great leader who brought in privatisation which is followed all over the World in 1979.One of Britain's greatest Prime Ministers ever.

Poll Tax was first levied by John of Gaunt, the regent of Richard II of England, levied his poll tax and it led to the  Peasants' Revolt in 1381

Thatcher  decided to act upon a long standing aspiration to replace the rating system of local taxes (based on the notional rental value of a house). The proposed replacement that emerged from consultations within the Department of the Environment, primarily between Lord Rothschild, William Waldegrave and Kenneth Baker, and which secured Mrs Thatcher's strong support, was for a Community Charge. This was a fixed tax per adult resident, hence a poll tax

Poll Tax proposal was contained in the Conservative Manifesto for the 1987 General Election. The legislation introducing the Community Charge was passed in 1988 and the new tax replaced the rates in Scotland from the start of the 1989/90 financial year and in England and Wales from the start of the 1990/91 financial year. That the tax was introduced in Scotland a year before the rest of the UK was another fatal political mistake for Thatcher  and Tories lost Scotland to this day.
