Let's Start a War

Let's Start a War, or Let's Start a War... (Said Maggie One Day), is the third album by the punk rock band The Exploited, released in 1983 through Pax Records [PAX 18]. The title refers to Margaret Thatcher's decision to go to war over the Falkland Islands in 1982, suggesting that she did so almost on a whim. The controversial war was fodder for many protest songs in the punk movement.
