    In reality, he entered her bedroom ay 7:15 am and woke her up (unintentionally), and she fled the room immediately. She phoned the palace switchboard for police, but none arrived. She summoned a maid in the corridor and sent her to get security. The footman on duty (who had been walking her dogs) arrived, followed by two policemen who removed Fagan. At no time did the Queen and Fagan converse.

      @@daniel_sc1024 It's called a story telling. After all, the Crown is a drama not a documentary. The intruder is just a plot device based on the real event to tell the story. The narrative here is to show that the working class people is not happy with Thatcher, but the Queen can't intervene the politics to help or not help them for whatever reason.

    This episode reminded me of how hard times were for a lot of people. Not just in The Uk but in North America. Especially in the industrial Midwest where millions lost their jobs, homes, families. Myths of the so called “Reagan Recovery” were just that: Myths. Myths about “Welfare Queens and “You got laid off because it was “YOUR FAULT. I was just out of high school and the only job I could find was washing dishes in restaurants. At one of those jobs, one of the cooks had a masters degree in chemical engineering. And he was a line cook. It was rough for me but I was living with my parents and had a roof over my head, clothes on my back and food in my stomach. A lot of people didn’t.
    The 1980s, especially the early 80s, was a very cruel time for a lot of people.

      The economy got bad under Carter. It was the results of the Iranian Revolution and The Hostage Crisis. Iran stopped selling us oil and the economy went into a tailspin. It got worse under Reagan but by then he had cut off extended unemployment insurance, job retraining and a lot assistance that the unemployed needed to survive. And it wasn’t just them too lazy to get jobs. There were no jobs to find. Like I said, it was a very nasty time to be holding a mortgage, car loan or have a family.

      @@TheFioda Except you can actually trace almost every major issue we have today back to Regan. The huge wealth gap and the dismantling of a strong working middle class: him, housing deregulation: Regan, Poor investment in American Infrastructure and the environment: All Regan. Reaganomics worked in the short term, but we have since learned - on every front, its does more harm than good in the long run because the wealthy don't share. Dismantling of unions and workers rights: all Regan. And let's not even get into his hate of the LGBTQ+ community, letting them just die out - giving an entire generation of people trauma watching their loved ones die. Oh he also must have really hated our military the way he gutted their healthcare. Unfortunately Clinton and and Bush doubled down on a lot of these policies. Obama got a little done with Healthcare but used up most of his political capital in his first term and thanks to Mitch had his hands tied during his second. And then Trump rolled back as much as he could before he had no choice but to help people due to COVID. BUt hey, he finished what Regan started and got rid of Roe Vs. Wade. Also, his housing policies are why the majority of Americans are paying 30% or more of their income just to put a roof under their head and that there is not a single county in a single state in this country where a single person can work a minimum wage and afford a one bedroom apartment on their own.
