Mrs Thatcher arguably did more than any major UK politician at the time to legitimize the environment as a concern at the highest level.

Jimmy Saville spent 11 consecutive New Years Eves at Chequers with Thatcher

Jim Fixed it for the Ruling Class Child Abusers
By Antonio Las Sogas & Brighid O'Duinn - Socialist Fight - Issue No. 11 Winter 2012
By now nobody can fail to be aware of the unfolding paedophile scandal arising from the depraved child-abuse activities of 'Sir' Jimmy Savile OBE, KCSG. The scandal is set to explode in the faces of members of the ruling and media classes and rock the establishment to its core. Or at least it would if all the lines of inquiry are actively pur-sued to their natural and truthful conclusions.
As it stands, the investigation has so far gone backwards and uncovered already known pae-dophiles. At the time of writing just two of the usual suspects have been arrested or ques-tioned, Gary Glitter and Freddie Starr. News reporting has focused predominantly on the activities of Savile and 'stars', particularly within the State Broadcasting Corporation, the BBC. But the allegations and the circumstantial evi-dence of the criminal sexual abuse of minors stretches much further, deep into the heart of the British establishment.
This news will not come as a surprise to those aware of Savile's long and close ties to members of the Royal Family, including Prince Philip and Prince Charles, as well as his special relationship with Margaret Thatcher and others in the ruling class. The Telegraph reported that Savile spent eleven consecutive New Years Eves at Chequers with Thatcher, her family and other 'esteemed' guests. The closeness of Savile to Thatcher was described in a diary entry by Auberon Waugh:
“Mrs Thatcher should use this [i.e. the Falklands War] as a golden opportunity to blow up the huge grain silos in Northern Argentina, contain-ing all the wheat intended for Russia. In fact, I was urging her to do this long before the Argen-tineans invaded. But nowadays she listens only to Ferdinand Mount and Jimmy Savile. I might as well babble of green fields.” [1]
In 1984 Savile was accepted as a member of the Athenaeum Club [2] in London's Pall Mall after his membership was proposed by Cardinal Basil Hume. The Athenaeum is a clergymen's club which counts among its members Cabinet Min-isters, senior civil servants, Peers of the Realm and senior bishops.
The extent of Savile's relationship with Royalty enabled him to just 'pop-in' to St James' Palace and 'counselling' Charles and Diane throughout their divorce. [3] Charles is reported to have sent gifts to Savile on his 80th birthday, along with a note reading: "Nobody will ever know what you have done for this country Jimmy. This is to go some way in thanking you for that."
Now it is becoming abundantly clear not what Savile did FOR this country, if he did anything at all of any worth, but what Savile did TO the most vulnerable inhabitants of the country. The list of crimes is long and it includes hundreds of instances of sexual abuse against both male and female children, as well as repeated acts of procuring vulnerable, under-age children for his list of celebrity and ruling class child abusers.
In his spare time, Jimmy liked to extend his paraphiliac sexual deviancy to the freshly deceased corpses at the hospitals where he was given free reign as a volunteer night por-ter [4]. The scandal extends into Leeds Gen-eral Infirmary, Broadmoor, Haute de la Garenne children's home in Jersey and other establishments in which Savile, apparently on the basis of his tireless charity work, was given carte blanche right-to-roam and abuse. Notable also is that any challenges to his activities at the time they were occurring were usually not pur-sued within the organisation, nor investigated further, and certainly none ended in a prosecu-tion that could have ended the serial-abuser's cycle of abuse far earlier than his death did.
Tory Health Minister and John Major's mistress, Edwina Currie, charged Savile with the running of a Broadmoor task-force during Kenneth Clarke's reign as Health Secretary [5]. Clarke himself has recently been named by child actor Ben Fellows who accuses Clarke of sexually assaulting him. Subsequent to these allegations, the Cabinet Office issued repeated orders to remove Ken Clarke's name [6] from the public record of allegations. Whatever happened to that favourite phrase of the ruling class, “If you've nothing to hide, you've nothing to fear.”?
Labour MP Tom Watson one of the few politi-cians who championed the cause of the victims in the Murdoch/News International phone hack-ing affair, another scandal that extends into the office of the Prime Minister, recently picked up the baton for the hundreds of victims of child abuse molested by an establishment paedophile ring. On October 24th 2012 Watson, with the benefit of Parliamentary privilege, made the following statement [7]:
“The evidence file used to convict paedophile Peter Righton, if it still exists, contains clear intelligence of a widespread paedophile ring. One of its members boasts of his links to a senior aide of a former Prime Minister, who says he could smuggle indecent images of children from abroad. The leads were not followed up, but if the file still exists I want to ensure that the Met-ropolitan police secure the evidence, re-examine it and investigate clear intelligence suggesting a powerful paedophile network linked to Parlia-ment and No. 10."
It is unlikely that Jimmy Savile's depraved be-haviour would have been unknown to the Secu-rity Services, especially whilst Brigadier Ronnie Stonham in Room 105 of Broadcasting House was vetting employees at the BBC [8] (looking for links to groups such as the WRP) and is even more suspicious given the thoroughness of the vetting required to obtain access to No. 10 and the Royal palaces. Perhaps Savile was acting as an agent of the State, providing information to the Security Services about his ruling class pae-dophile associates? This might go some way to explaining how Savile's behaviour, which was widely rumoured and well-known to many including several police forces, some of whom he held regular meetings with [9] went un-challenged for so long. Indeed, the use of sex-scandal threats to bring those off-message into line politically is a well-known tactic of the intel-ligence services. Such is the true and ugly nature of the establishment.
Savile was clearly protected throughout his lifetime by the powerful members of the ruling class whom he knew, associated and abused with, simply because of what he knew about them. In interviews Savile threatened to “take them all down” with him were he to be outed. Previous child abuse scandals and cover-ups have had links to the Security Services and sen-ior establishment figures. Kincora children's home in Belfast [10] and the North Wales child abuse paedophile ring [11], which mopped up the minnows rather than the more powerful sharks. The ruling class in America is no differ-ent, with child-abuse scandals surrounding the Whitehouse and former presidents Bush and Reagan [12].
It is imperative that all these links and connec-tions are fully investigated no matter where they lead. It is our duty to ensure that the right questions are asked and that the truth of the criminality and abuse of children, power and privilege are investigated so the perpetrators can be finally brought to justice.
We know we cannot rely on the investigative and propaganda organs of the Corporate State to honestly report and uncover the truth. As this article was being finalised for publication, the BBC's flagship news programme Newsnight balked at naming a senior Conservative repeat-edly implicated in child abuse allegations for years, Lord Alistair McAlpine, while only days previously the deceased child abuser Sir Peter Morrison was outed, with suggestions that William Hague would have been well aware of his perverted proclivities [13]. As a result we must do all that is in our power to determine and publicise the truth. Without a politically active population that utilises tools such as the Internet and social media to usurp the cover-up, the guilty will remain hidden and protected and the cycles of abuse of the vulnerable will con-tinue unabated.
We owe it to all the poor, powerless, unfortunate individuals to ensure, no matter how many years later this story is unfolding, that absolute justice is done. That there is filth and perversion at the heart of the Capitalist State, all abuse has power at its heart, will come as no surprise to Socialists and it is time for the whole rotten edifice to be taken apart.
