Maggie Out

"Maggie Out" was a chant popular during the miners' strike, student grant protests, poll tax protests and other public demonstrations that fell within the time when Margaret Thatcher was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.

[6] When Margaret Thatcher felt compelled to resign some people had memories of chanting it for thirteen years.

[7][8] People were passionate about this group activity and associated it with varied political struggles from that time.

[11] Upon Thatcher's resignation, groups of opponents gathered at Downing Street, chanting a variation – replacing the word "out" with "gone".

[12][13] Following the death of Thatcher on 8 April 2013, this chant was revived in the format of "Maggie, Maggie Maggie (Dead, Dead, Dead)" at celebratory parties held in Glasgow, London and Reading.
