Hidden Agenda / int_e88e8a8f | comment |
Writer on Board: The film is pretty obviously a Take That! against the government of Margaret Thatcher, going much further than most. The plot involves a conspiracy where she, with the aid of factions within big business and the military, used black propaganda to discredit Conservative Party leader Edward Heath so she could replace him in 1975. After this she was successfully elected Prime Minister, taking hard-line measures to fight their foes: the labor unions and IRA. | |
