I am sorry to hear that Margaret Thatcher has died, as she did much good during her time as Prime Minster. She repaired the bankruptcy the Labour then government left, together with the Unions, in 1978/1979, she brought the Union power under control and broke Arthur Scargill and the miners. Her biggest mistake was the way the Poll Tax was implemented, and the fact Local Authorities could not use the money from Council House sales to build more social housing. R.I.P Margaret It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues |

Like any politician, Margaret Thatcher was a controversial person. Admired by some, hated by others. But in death, everyone is equal. Requiescat in pace Margaret Thatcher. Grade : Illusionniste |

I just wished I could have been blessed with just half of those abilities that she possessed . The Kite Fliers -------------------- Kite fliers: An imaginary club of solo members, those who don't yet belong to a formal team so "fly their own kites" - as the saying goes. |

The UK Parliament has been recalled from its Easter recess on Wednesday to enable MPs to pay tributes to the former Prime Minister.

I wish to express my condolences to my friends across the pond. Most of my knowledge of her comes from Streep's portrayal of her in the movie. I was both amazed at her character and abilities and saddened by the way things ended. I hope that portrayal was not too far off the mark. I know you have lost someone very dear to many of you. Rest in Peace, keeper of the people, Margaret. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

I went in to town this morning (Grantham) and there is 6 different satellite news trucks on the green outside the council offices. These are here to gather opinion from pedestrians. But the number of news groups was over the top yesterday. It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues |
