A very spiritual song, “When You Believe” sung by Leon Jackson won the British equivalent of American Idol.  It is a beautiful song and beautifully sung.  It is also a song that has hit the UK by storm.

This is one of Margaret Thatcher’s most famous speeches delivered 10 October 1980 at the Conservative Party Conference, Brighton, England.  Here is an excerpt from here speech but click on the photo below to take you to the site where you can listen in its entirety:

If spending money like water was the answer to our country’s problems, we would have no problems now. Because if ever a nation has spent, spent, spent, and spent again — ours has. And today that dream is over. All that money has got us nowhere, but it still has to come from somewhere.
