So, PM Gordon Brown has been accused of "exploiting" "frail" former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher by using her visit to see him this week in Downing Street as a ploy to strengthen his credentials amongst Conservatives in the run up to the next General Election.
Mr Smith recalls that it Mrs Thatcher herself who once famously said that there was "no such thing as society," so he is sure that Mrs Thatcher herself expected a bit of exploitation given her own capitalistic tendencies. Indeed, she probably would have been surprised if she hadn't been exploited ... even a little bit.
