    Well yeah. There are other visionaries that haven’t damaged the UK as much as Thatcher, he could have mentioned them instead. But he didn’t - he made the decision to call Thatcher a visionary, same as Rachel Reeves did. It’s not just some arbitrary name he pulled out of a hat.

      Everyone who came after has just been a bland Prime Minister who doesn’t really want to do anything.
