Product Information

On becoming prime minister after winning the 1979 general election, Thatcher introduced a series of economic policies intended to reverse high inflation and Britain's struggles in the wake of the Winter of Discontent and an oncoming recession. [nb 1] Her political philosophy and economic policies emphasised deregulation (particularly of the financial sector), the privatisation of state-owned companies, and reducing the power and influence of trade unions. Her popularity in her first years in office waned amid recession and rising unemployment. Victory in the 1982 Falklands War and the recovering economy brought a resurgence of support, resulting in her landslide re-election in 1983. She survived an assassination attempt by the Provisional IRA in the 1984 Brighton hotel bombing and achieved a political victory against the National Union of Mineworkers in the 1984–85 miners' strike. This type of torture instrument consist of long, sharp iron spikes curved so as to resemble claws. It was often attached to a handle, sometimes used as an extension of the torturer’s hand. It was used to rip and tear flesh away from the bone, from any part of the body. This torture device was commonly used on thieves and unfaithful wives. Most who were tortured in this manner didn’t die right away, but afterwards. Especially with the Cat’s Paw, the device would cause infections as the device would cut so deep. The prongs were nearly never washed, so the chances of these infections were very high. As prime minister, Thatcher met weekly with Queen ElizabethII to discuss government business, and their relationship came under scrutiny. [122] Campbell (2011a, p.464) states: Used in the dungeons during the Middle Ages and until the 1800s in Europe, this chair consisted of 500-1,500 layers of spikes on every side, with straps to restrain the victim. It also contained spaces for heating elements. This device was used to scare people into confessing as they witness others suffer the torture. #18. Cement Shoes

For those women who were accused or adultery, abortion or any other crime, they were subjected to the painful torture of the breast ripper or the spider. Thatcher refused to meet the union's demands and compared the miners' dispute to the Falklands War, declaring in a speech in 1984: "We had to fight the enemy without in the Falklands. We always have to be aware of the enemy within, which is much more difficult to fight and more dangerous to liberty." [165] Thatcher's opponents misrepresented her words as indicating contempt for the working class and have been employed in criticism of her ever since. [166] During her first months in office, she attracted public attention due to the government's attempts to cut spending. She gave priority to academic needs in schools, [74] while administering public expenditure cuts on the state education system, resulting in the abolition of free milk for schoolchildren aged seven to eleven. [77] She held that few children would suffer if schools were charged for milk but agreed to provide younger children with 0.3 imperial pints (0.17L) daily for nutritional purposes. [77] She also argued that she was simply carrying on with what the Labour government had started since they had stopped giving free milk to secondary schools. [78] Milk would still be provided to those children that required it on medical grounds, and schools could still sell milk. [78] The aftermath of the milk row hardened her determination; she told the editor-proprietor Harold Creighton of The Spectator: "Don't underestimate me, I saw how they broke Keith [ Joseph], but they won't break me." [79] Totcher has a wisdom beyond their years. Even as a child, their understanding of life was considerable, though it likely went unrecognized by others. Totcher is a born peacemaker, driven by a desire to settle conflicts and create harmony.

Torture is defined as “ the act of causing severe physical pain as a form of punishment or as a way to force someone to do or say something.”

The medieval era saw the invention of some of the most cruel and painful methods of torture in history. From the 12th to the 15th centuries, in particular, increasingly sadistic methods of torture arose, driven by a desire to either extract confessions from victims or to enforce punishment on them.

A torture device specifically designed for women, the claws are heated first before the executioner pierces the woman’s exposed breast. Then, they’d pull or tug the device so large chunks of flesh would be ripped from the victim. #20. Crocodile Shears On 6November 1981, Thatcher and Taoiseach (Irish prime minister) Garret FitzGerald had established the Anglo-Irish Inter-Governmental Council, a forum for meetings between the two governments. [187] On 15November 1985, Thatcher and FitzGerald signed the Hillsborough Anglo-Irish Agreement, which marked the first time a British government had given the Republic of Ireland an advisory role in the governance of Northern Ireland. In protest, the Ulster Says No movement led by Ian Paisley attracted 100,000 to a rally in Belfast, [193] Ian Gow, later assassinated by the PIRA, resigned as Minister of State in the HM Treasury, [194] [195] and all 15 Unionist MPs resigned their parliamentary seats; only one was not returned in the subsequent by-elections on 23January 1986. [196] EnvironmentAndrei eventually asked the soldiers to shoot him dead as he was in such pain. They refused and instead punished him for the request. Not to be confused with being buried alive or walled up, this very public torture consisted of a person being confined to a very small metal or wooden cage which was then strung up to a hangman’s gibbet or tree. The bird-like cage was tight fitting and shaped around the body like a suit. The effect of the metal close against the skin was painful. Shue, Henry (2015). "Torture".
