I think your opinion of her will be determined by where you live

I imagine people in old manufacturing areas will not be cut up about this

strong war leader..killed large parts of the north east and north west

Ding dong etc.....

at least it'll be warm where's she gone to, unlike anywhere north of the M25

I grew up going to public school in the south east and I absolutely hated her, certainly breaking the mould from my peers, as I said in the other thread to those celebrating:

If you believe in humanity and social justice you can't celebrate death, even the death of one who violated both

Yep that was terrible. Of course there was no time in 12 years of Labour to reverse that decision

R.I.P my Dad was a huge fan of Maggie and firmly believes that if it wasn't for her he wouldn't have been as successful as he is now. I know other will have different memories but for me at least she was the greatest post war prime minister.

RIP Maggie.

I hope the mods keep a close eye on this thread as there will be an influx of blithering mongrels who are over the moon.

I know that something I write here could get me a ban, so I'm going to keep them to myself.

I don't care! I wasn't at Primary School during the time labour were in power.

All I know is my calcium deficiency at infant age was due to her.

One of our great prime ministers. A lady of strength, conviction and backbone.

"I love argument. I love debate. I don't expect anyone just to sit there and agree with me - that's not their job."

RIP Maggie

Greatest prime minister this country has ever had. God bless her soul.

The bitter ones are the ones who are still ****ed because she closed the mines; a decision which she got right. Don't forget at the time the mines weren't making a profit and we were effectively paying to keep them open. The miners were also demanding up to a 30% pay rise whilst literally cutting off the flow of fuel - damaging the rest of the economy.

A woman who had the balls to make the tough calls when no one else would. May she Rest in Peace.
