I would be a hypocrite to say I agreed with anything she did as a leader, that is not a slur on her personally so why you chose to act so affronted I don't know.
as a women yourself its a shame you cant see what she did for women around the world just by being a woman in power.
at the time she was in power the threat from the ira was at its greatest! her life was in real danger but she was a very strong woman.

That is exactly what i liked about her.

shame she stipulated she didnt want a state funeral, we might have had a day off.. still calling the shots even in death.

Don't patronize me....
There are 100s of powerful women in history I don't choose to hold this woman in high esteem for her dubious conduct while in power.

If you were alive during her reign, and lived in a region adversely affected by her 'changes', you're not going to have a positive opinion of her. That's where my opinion comes from.. and the same can be said for others who've already posted here.

I'd be interested to know the age and location of everyone with a positive or negative opinion to be honest, as I think that would be quite telling.

Yes, but I didn't live through her time as Prime Minister so my view comes entirely out of retrospective reading rather than personal experience. :)

She was a stuck up right winged dope, simple as. No point licking her rim now that she's dead, if I asked people what they taught of her a week ago they would criticise her but because she's dead she is being hailed. She let 10 Irish prisoners die, she basically ruined industrial Britain, the list goes on.

Ignorance at the highest degree. You don't know anything about the hunger striking - or else you'd know they hardly 'brought it on themselves' - yeah it was voluntarily but all they were asking for was a few rights, they were fighting for their country and were treated like absolute scum.

Terrorists? :laugh: They're prisoners of war.

I've studied Thatcher's government extensively and I am fully aware of the negative impact she had on society, but I also see the positive outcomes from her time as the Prime Minister of the UK. Don't be patronising.

I think a lot of people dont study the politics they just go along with family tradition which is what i did until the last election.
