Margaret Thatcher death party in Brixton: LOL sign put up at Ritzy cinema, London

A Margaret Thatcher death party in Brixton saw protesters scale the Ritzy Cinema and change the sign to say ’Margaret Thatchers dead LOL.’. More than 100 people gathered in Brixton, south London - the scene of fierce riots in 1981 - two years into her first time in office. A crowd of around 300 people assembled in Glasgow’s George Square where in 1989 protests to the introduction of the former prime minister’s poll tax took place. Some wore party hats and launched streamers into the air while a bottle of champagne was opened with a toast to the demise of Baroness Thatcher. Members of various organisations including the Anti-Bedroom Tax Federation, the Communist Party, the Socialist Party, the Socialist Working Party, the International Socialist Group, were joined by members of the public to mark the occasion.
